JMP 9 Tree Functionality

I have been a heavy user of  CART( SALFORD SYSTEMS) for the past 6-7 years and really love it.   Today I had the opportunity to see the Tree functionality that comes with JMP 9, and must say I am very impressed!

While the visuals are  not very appealing ( Why?  contradicts the  otherwise visual rich appeal of JMP), the functionalities are very good.  I  particularly loved the ability to prune and shape  any node the way I want to and really control the overall tree.  I have always maintained that this is something which can be a very dangerous functionality and would not recommend it for  novices, in the hands of an experienced analyst, the inferences are going to be so much richer! Love it.

Now waiting for  JMP to incorporate the multi way splits  available with Knowledge Seeker (Angoss) !
