We performed a comparison between IBM SPSS Statistics, SAS Analytics, and SAS Enterprise Miner based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Knime, Weka, IBM and others in Data Mining.
"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."
"The SPSS interface is very accessible and user-friendly. It's really easy to get information in it. I've shared it with experts and beginners, and everyone can navigate it."
"Capability analysis is one of the main and valuable functions. We also do some hypothesis testing in Minitab and summary stats. These are the functions that we find very useful."
"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 learning curve to using this product is not steep. The program is appropriate for those who do not have a lot of background in programming, yet have to perform basic statistical analysis."
"It is a modeling tool with helpful automation."
"The software offers consistency across multiple research projects helping us with predictive analytics capabilities."
"The technical support is okay."
"It's very easy to use once you learn it."
"I use it to replicate our entire financial system to verify/duplicate calculations."
"All of the data analytics features in SAS Analytics are valuable to us since we're using them daily across our entire analytics team."
"SAS Business Intelligence is well-suited for our large corporation. We have demand for scalable and reliable insights into information which is housed in our large systems."
"Modeling ones and figures, such as PROC LIFETEST, PROC LOGISTICS, PROC GPLOT. PROC FREQ and PROC MEANS, are also among the valuable features."
"It has facilitated timely analysis results with quality work and meaningful output."
"They have provided virtually everything we have needed to accomplish our task, as well as continuously improving our accuracy."
"The most valuable feature is the decision tree creation."
"The technical support is very good."
"The setup is straightforward. Deployment doesn't take more than 30 minutes."
"The solution is very good for data mining or any mining issues."
"Good data management and analytics."
"The most valuable feature is that you can use multiple algorithms for creating models and then you can compare the results between them."
"The solution is able to handle quite large amounts of data beautifully."
"I like the way the product visually shows the data pipeline."
"There is a learning curve; it's not very steep, but there is one."
"The reports could be better."
"The product should provide more ways to import data and export results that are user-friendly for high-level executives."
"Improvements are needed in the user interface, particularly in terms of user-friendliness."
"Technical support needs some improvement, as they do not respond as quickly as we would like."
"If there is any self-generation data collection plan (DCP), it would be helpful in gathering data. It would also be useful if there is a function to scale it up to, let's say, UiPath and have it consolidate and integrate into a UiPath solution."
"The statistics should be more self-explanatory with detailed automated reports."
"The solution needs more planning tools and capabilities."
"They could enhance the AI capabilities of the product."
"I would like to see their interface to R added to either Base SAS or SAS Analytics."
"The installation could also be easier, and the price could be better."
"This solution should be made more user-friendly."
"There is potential for enhancement, particularly in the virtualized dashboard's capability to generate reports."
"One of the things that can be simplified is self-service analytics, especially for a citizen developer or a citizen data scientist."
"Support at universities used to be limited, but I hear this is changing."
"The graphing and visualization features could be enhanced, in my opinion. I would especially stress improving the visualization capabilities."
"Technical support could be improved."
"While I don't personally need tutorials, I can't say that it wouldn't be helpful for others to have some to help them navigate and operate the system."
"The visualization of the models is not very attractive, so the graphics should be improved."
"The solution is much more complex than other options."
"The solution needs an easier interface for the user. The user experience isn't so easy for our clients."
"The ease of use can be improved. When you are new it seems a bit complex."
"The user interface of the solution needs improvement. It needs to be more visual."
"The initial setup is challenging if doing it for the first time."
