Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"SPSS is quite robust and quicker in terms of providing you the output.""I've found the descriptive statistics and cross-tabs valuable. The very simple correlations and regressions are as well.""They have many existing algorithms that we can use and use effectively to analyze and understand how to put our data to work to improve what we do.""It offers very good visualization.""Custom tables and macros: They allow us to create useful reports quickly for a broad audience.""IBM SPSS Statistics depends on AI.""The solution is very comprehensive, especially compared to Minitabs, which is considered more for manufacturing. However, whatever data you want to analyze can be handled with SPSS.""SPSS can handle whatever you throw at it, whether your data set contains 10,000, 100,000, or a million objects. It's like the heavy artillery of analytical tools."

"Ability to pull together multiple sources of information.""When needed, we will work closely with Oracle support and implement their workaround in our application.""The dashboard interface is intuitive and the user is able to interact with it to receive good results from the analytic."

Cons
"IBM SPSS Statistics could improve the visual outputs where you are producing, for example, a graph for a company board of directors, or an advert.""The design of the experience can be improved.""It could provide even more in the way of automation as there are many opportunities.""One of the areas that should be similar to Minitabs is the use of blogs. The Minitabs blog helps users understand the tools and gives lots of practical examples. Following the SPSS manual is cumbersome. It's a good, exhaustive manual, but it's not practical to use. With Minitabs, you can go to the blogs and find specific articles written about various components and it's very helpful. Without blogs, we find SPSS more complicated.""It would be helpful if there was better documentation on how to properly use the solution. A beginner's guide on how to use the various programming functions within the product would be so useful to a lot of people. I found that everything was very confusing at first. Having clear documentation would help alleviate that.""The solution needs to improve forecasting using time series analysis.""The technical support should be improved.""The reports could be better."

More IBM SPSS Statistics Cons →

"There are some transactions we have not been able to find through the dashboard.""Could use some refinement getting things that are not standard cloud applications, but more customized.""The performance, scalability and queries should be addressed, as well as the data distribution of certain data techniques."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "If it requires lot of data processing, maybe switching to IBM SPSS Clementine would be better for the buyer."
  • "More affordable training for new staff members."
  • "Our licence is on a yearly renewal basis. While pricing is not the primary concern in our evaluation, as products are assessed by whether they can meet our user needs and expertise, the cost can be a limiting factor in the number of licences we procure."
  • "We think that IBM SPSS is expensive for this function."
  • "The price of this solution is a little bit high, which was a problem for my company."
  • "The pricing of the modeler is high and can reduce the utility of the product for those who can not afford to adopt it."
  • "It's quite expensive, but they do a special deal for universities."
  • "The price of IBM SPSS Statistics could improve."

SPSS Statistics allows users to leverage machine learning algorithms so that they can mine and analyze data in the most effective way possible.

    IBM SPSS Statistics Benefits

    Some of the ways that organizations can benefit by choosing to deploy IBM SPSS Statistics include:


    • Ease of use. SPSS Statistics enables users to simply and intuitively take control of their statistical needs. The solution is designed so that analysts who do not know how to code can easily make full use of the various tools and capabilities that SPSS Statistics has to offer. Its command language is so straightforward that it does not require users to undergo special training before they use it.


    • Comprehensive and flexible build. SPSS Statistics is designed to be both a comprehensive and highly flexible analytics solution. It enables users to utilize a variety of integrations that make it easy for users to add features that they might feel they are missing.


    • Automation. SPSS Statistics makes it simple for users to automate basic tasks that they might otherwise devote too much time worrying about. Tasks like calculation or data gathering can be delegated to the system while more conceptual tasks like data analysis are given to an organization’s analysts to handle. 


    IBM SPSS Statistics Features


    • Intuitive user interface. SPSS Statistics enables users to deploy an intuitive interface that makes the process of system management simple. Among the other components of this interface is a drag-and-drop feature that makes analysis and management possible for anyone who wants to use it.


    • Advanced data visualizations. Analysts that employ SPSS Statistics gain access to tools that empower them to create and export data visualizations. These visualizations can be formatted in many different ways depending on what the user needs.


    • Local data storage. SPSS Statistics has the ability to securely store data on a user’s computer. This enables them to add layers of security that would not necessarily be present if the data was stored in the cloud.


    Reviews from Real Users

    IBM SPSS Statistics is a highly effective solution that stands out when compared to many of its competitors. Two major advantages it offers are the wealth of functionalities that it provides and its high level of accessibility.

    An Emeritus Professor of Health Services Research at a university writes, "The most valuable feature of IBM SPSS Statistics is all the functionality it provides. Additionally, it is simple to do the five-way analysis that you can in a multidimensional setup space. It's the multidimensional space facility that is most useful."

    A Director of Systems Management & MIS Operations at a university, says, “The SPSS interface is very accessible and user-friendly. It's really easy to get information from it. I've shared it with experts and beginners, and everyone can navigate it.”

    Oracle Advanced Analytics 12c delivers parallelized in-database implementations of data mining algorithms and integration with open source R. Data analysts use Oracle Data Miner GUI and R to build and evaluate predictive models and leverage R packages and graphs. Application developers deploy Oracle Advanced Analytics models using SQL data mining functions and R. With the Oracle Advanced Analytics option, Oracle extends the Oracle Database to an sclable analytical platform that mines more data and data types, eliminates data movement, and preserves security to anticipate customer behavior, detect patterns, and deliver actionable insights. Oracle Big Data SQL adds new big data sources and Oracle R Advanced Analytics for Hadoop provides algorithms that run on Hadoop.
