We performed a comparison between IBM SPSS Statistics and MathWorks Matlab based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Databricks, Microsoft, Alteryx and others in Data Science Platforms."The software offers consistency across multiple research projects helping us with predictive analytics capabilities."
"The features that I have found most valuable are the Bayesian statistics and descriptive statistics."
"The most valuable features are the solution is easy to use, training new users is not difficult, and our usage is comprehensive because the whole service is beneficial."
"In terms of the features I've found most valuable, I'd say the duration, the correlation, and of course the nonparametric statistics. I use it for reliability and survival analysis, time series, regression models in different solutions, and different types of solutions."
"It is a modeling tool with helpful automation."
"It has helped our analyst unit deliver work with more transparency and confidence, given that we can always view the dataset in totality, after each step of data transformation."
"IBM SPSS Statistics depends on AI."
"It has the ability to easily change any variable in our research."
"Personally for me, because I do a lot of development, I like that it is easy to test mathematical algorithms with several matrix calculations. It's perfect for that."
"The tool's most valuable feature is the Simulink environment. This feature provides an incredible capability to visually represent the system behavior before creating the code. It allows you to see the flow and interactions of the system, which is extremely beneficial for software development. With this visual representation, you can better understand the system's behavior, make necessary adjustments, and ensure maintenance and updates. This capability is why I love working with the product."
"Technical support needs some improvement, as they do not respond as quickly as we would like."
"The statistics should be more self-explanatory with detailed automated reports."
"It could provide even more in the way of automation as there are many opportunities."
"It could allow adding color to data models to make them easier to interpret."
"The solution could improve by providing a visual network for predictions and a self-organizing map for clustering."
"The solution needs to improve forecasting using time series analysis."
"Improvements are needed in the user interface, particularly in terms of user-friendliness."
"I'd like to see them use more artificial intelligence. It should be smart enough to do predictions and everything based on what you input."
"To make use of the GPU, you have to have an Nvidia card. What I would want it to do is to run in Next Generation with Intel or AMD, and not just with Nvidia."
"In the area of improvement, sometimes there are issues with the speed of MathWorks Matlab, particularly in the Simulink environment. The tool's latest versions can be slow to open, taking significant time to load. Additionally, saving data and integrating models can also be time-consuming processes."
