We performed a comparison between Alteryx and IBM SPSS Statistics based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Science Platforms solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The support is very good."
"Technical support is very helpful."
"The GUI is simple and it integrates with Python."
"Data processing is most valuable. It is one of the fastest data blockers out there in the market, which is a fascinating thing about Alteryx."
"Predictive models, which are easy to use, and help a lot with fast design and deployment."
"Alteryx speeds up the time to obtain business answers/insights on data."
"The analytics are easy."
"Automation is the most valuable aspect for us. The ability to wrap business logic around the data is very helpful."
"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."
"Since we are using the software as a statistical tool, I would say the best aspects of it are the regression and segmentation capabilities. That said, I've used it for all sorts of things."
"The most valuable features mainly include factor analysis, correlation analysis, and geographic analysis."
"You can find a complete algorithm in the solution and use it. You don't need to write your own algorithms for predictive analytics. That's the most valuable feature and the main one we use."
"The features that I have found most valuable are the Bayesian statistics and descriptive statistics."
"Some of the most valuable features that we are using with some business models are machine learning algorithms, statistical models given to us by the business, and getting data from the database or text files."
"The most valuable feature is its robust statistical analysis capabilities."
"Most of the product features are good but I particularly like the linear regression analysis."
"The gallery could improve in Alteryx. Additionally, if there was a Conditional Join feature it would be beneficial. Since I do not have this feature I have to use Python scripts."
"The solution is improving continuously. They have, for example, just added automatic insights. If they continue to improve on their overall service offering, that would be ideal."
"A colleague of mind mentioned that the solution should have more options for the visualization of data."
"In the database, it should be more functional and connect to more big data, especially using IPI."
"It would be nice if they can provide Alteryx with more options for In-DB connectivity. That functionality is there, but it doesn't include all software we are connecting."
"There are a few imputation techniques which they really need to include."
"The formula we currently use in Alteryx can be automated."
"It would be great if Alteryx could take third party tools and incorporate them."
"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."
"Improvements are needed in the user interface, particularly in terms of user-friendliness."
"SPSS slows down the computer or the laptop if the data is huge; then you need a faster computer."
"It could allow adding color to data models to make them easier to interpret."
"The product should provide more ways to import data and export results that are user-friendly for high-level executives."
"Most of the package will give you the fixed value, or the p-value, without an explanation as to whether it it significant or not. Some beginners might need not just the results, but also some explanation for them."
"I think the visualization and charting should be changed and made easier and more effective."
"In some cases, the product takes time to load a large dataset. They could improve this particular area."

We monitor all Data Science Platforms reviews to prevent fraudulent reviews and keep review quality high. We do not post reviews by company employees or direct competitors. We validate each review for authenticity via cross-reference with LinkedIn, and personal follow-up with the reviewer when necessary.
Alteryx Definitely. SPSS is an old product et very outdated as compared to the new tools such as Alteryx or Knime.
