Innovative Analytics Since 1984Founded in 1984, Palisade’s first product was PRISM, which gave PC users the ability to quantify risk by running Monte Carlo simulations. In 1987 it was succeeded by @RISK for Lotus 1-2-3, the world’s first Monte Carlo simulation add-in
for spreadsheets. Today, @RISK is an add-in to Microsoft Excel and Microsoft Project.
