We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"I think it is the point and drag features that are the most valuable. You can simply click at the windows, and then pull up the functions.""It scales. I have not run into any challenges where it will not perform.​""The most valuable features of the IBM SPSS Modeler are visual programming, you don't have to write any code, and it is easy to use. 90 to 95 percent of the use cases, you don't have to fine-tune anything. If you want to do something deeper, for example, create a better neural network, then you have to go into the features and try to fine-tune them. However, the default selection which is made by the tool, it's very practical and works well.""We had an IBM Guardium service contract where we used one of their resources to help us develop our prototype. It was a good experience, but they were helpful and responsive.""You take two quarters and compare them and this tool is ideal because it gives you a lot of visibility on the before and after.""It helped me in that I didn't need to write them by hand, and I could get a result in one or two minutes. That helped me a lot.""We have been able to do some predictive modeling with it""The supervised models are valuable. It is also very organized and easy to use."

Cons
"​I would like better integration into the Weather Company solution. I have raised a couple of concerns about this integration and having more time series capabilities.​""The platform's cloud version needs improvements.""It would be good if IBM added help resources to the interface.""Dimension reduction should be classified separately.""The challenge for the very technical data scientists: It is constraining for them.​""I think mapping for geographic data would also be a really great thing to be able to use.""When you are not using the product, such as during the pandemic where we had worldwide lockdowns, you still have to pay for the licensing.""It is not integrated with Qlik, Tableau, and Power BI."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Having in mind all four tools from Garner’s top quadrant, the pricing of this tool is competitive and it reflects the quality that it offers."
  • "If you are in a university and the license is free then you can use the tool without any charges, which is good."
  • "It is a huge increase to time savings."
  • "The scalability was kind of limited by our ability to get other people licenses, and that was usually more of a financial constraint. It's expensive, but it's a good tool."
  • "When you are close to end of quarter, IBM and its partners can get you 60% to 70% discounts, so literally wait for the last day of the quarter for the best prices. You may feel like you are getting robbed if you can't receive a good discount."
  • "It got us a good amount of money with quick and efficient modeling."
  • "$5,000 annually."
  • "This tool, being an IBM product, is pretty expensive."
