Global fits which confront results of High-Energy-Physics experiments with accurate theoretical predictions can be used to provide indirect constraints on fundamental parameters of the Standard Model of particle physics or new physics models. Important examples are global fits of the electroweak sector of the Standard Model or fits of supersymetric extensions of it. In this article we review the results obtained using the public software tools ${\tt Gfitter}, {\tt Fittino}, {\tt MasterCode}, {\tt HiggsBounds}$ and ${\tt HiggsSignals}$ and we highlight the physics results of global fits in the Standard Model, Supersymmetry and various other beyond-the-Standard-Model theories.
