In their present state, both in terms of price and power, microcomputers are taking over applied econometics. Now even model simulation is feasible. This paper tries to help the model‐builder in determining which of the following modelling software is appropriate to his/her specific needs: AREMOS, ESP, Micro‐TSP, MODLER and SORITEC. Tables devoted to data management, estimation, model specification, simulation, and presentation of results, detail the availability of desirable features. Finally, individual short reviews stress the best and worst points of each software.
