The JMP story began in 1989 when SAS co-founder John Sall decided to combine statistical analysis capabilities with graphical visualizations to animate and visualize data. His idea worked. Today JMP helps scientists and engineers in nearly every industry change the world with their data discoveries. Sall still leads JMP R&D, making each version more visual, more interactive, and more practical for understanding data. What started as a passion project has grown by leaps and bounds. Now a wholly owned subsidiary of SAS, JMP offers four products for powerful statistical discovery and sharing. It’s spelled J-M-P but pronounced “jump,” suggesting a leap in interactivity, a move ahead. At JMP, we say that great software in the right hands can change the world, because we’ve seen it. We’ve seen scientists and engineers use JMP to advance green-energy technologies, speed cancer therapies to market, protect fragile ecosystems with decisive conservation management, and build high-performance infrared detectors for probes that travel into deep space. You get the idea: Advancements are made when brilliant people use JMP to see what they haven’t seen before.
