I rate the ease of setup a five out of ten. The tool has a low learning curve, especially with the data format. There is always some troubleshooting. There are always some mistakes that need to be cleaned. Solving the data issues should get easier with experience. Even though I've dealt with many cases for three years, I always face some trouble. I do not understand why something is wrong.

The initial deployment was straightforward. I wasn't really a part of the deployment process.

The initial setup was very straightforward. It was a simple process. The deployment was fast and only took maybe 15 minutes or so. 

The initial process is very simple. It is not overly complex. 

The initial setup was easy but of course it needs some practice.

Its initial setup is easy.

IBM SPSS Modeler is easy to set up.

I rate the setup of IBM SPSS Modeler a five out of five.

Initial installation is very quick and straightforward. It can take up to half an hour. I carry out the installation. 

The setup process isn't easy and time-consuming to deploy in case of improving an already existing infrastructure.

The initial setup was straightforward. Though, I had done it before.

I was not involved in the initial setup but the upgrades are straightforward. They do not give me any problems.

Setup is a little problematic for desktop. A nightmare for server.

It is very easy to set up. Once we deployed it and got the license code registered, it was fine. 

In a certain sense, I was involved in the initial setup. When I joined the university, I started to try to develop a joint agreement between IBM and the university. Because even two or three years ago, IBM was very reluctant to have universities use Modeler at no cost to the faculty or students. Now, fortunately, that has changed. Now our students can have a six-month license. That is very good. I was pushing for that when I was at IBM and then finished pushing for it when I joined the university.

It was a little complex, but the person we work with, Chris Thomas, did a fantastic job walking us through it.

There were just a lot of steps and components to it. We bought the Modeler Gold package, so we had to consider CNDS, we had to consider ADM - we had a whole bunch of different components that had to get set up simultaneously. And when upgrading, we have to upgrade all of those components simultaneously in order to keep using it.

Straightforward. It was not complex.

I was not involved in the initial setup.

Initial setup of the software was complex, because of our own problems within the government. It took us four years to deploy it to a machine.

The setup was straightforward.

The first time you implement this product, you need an implementation partner. I remember that it was pretty expensive. You go through a one-time on-premises deployment and configuration cost, and then it is just the renewal after that.

The initial setup was somewhere in between straightforward and complex. I would not say complex. It seemed pretty straightforward. I think anything that made it more complicated was about our environment, not about the tool itself. 

It is a very complex system, and we are dealing with a lot of different features, but the installation did a very good job of walking us through it. They made it as painless as possible.

To local setup of each license is straightforward. If an organization plans on sharing workflows amongst team members or automate tasks, additional components need to be purchased and set up. I have not used other components provided by IBM, but most likely the setup of those would be straightforward too.

Based on several discussions that we have had with our local representative, the initial setup should be quite short, a few weeks, or two or three weeks for the PoC. We expect him to transfer the data to us, allowing our internal analysts to do the analysis. 

The initial installation is straightforward.
