Support and flexibility enable effective project initiation and meet customer needs but deployment requires enhancement

The customer comes to you and says they want to deploy it and make a production out of this, which is very difficult and expensive with IBM SPSS Modeler. With MATLAB, there is no problem. I have a solution, and then I convert my MATLAB solution to C programming language. This I can deploy, and I can check it, and it is MISRA compatible. It is very easy to deploy it, to go from MATLAB to C or C++, which is actually needed in the car industry. In the car industry, they want to have it in the hardware. You cannot put MATLAB or IBM SPSS Modeler in the hardware of a car, but with C, there is no problem with a microcontroller. They can shoot it into the microcontroller, and I can check it with Polyspace, and it is MISRA compatible, which is an industrial standard. There is nothing similar in IBM SPSS Modeler. I made solutions with IBM SPSS Modeler, and then the customer said they wanted to make a production out of it, and it was not possible. I stopped with IBM SPSS Modeler 18. It is now 18.6 from what I know at the moment. I do not believe that there is a possibility to design a graphic user interface with it. It is itself a graphic user interface, where you put all sorts of little icons into the display.

Customization and centralization improve efficiency despite complex user interface

The organizational context makes it difficult to deploy Oracle Advanced Analytics because we have all kinds of contract maintenance parties; however, the software installation itself is something we're used to doing, so that's no problem for us. It is not a really easy product to use, so you have to do a lot of configuration. The user interface is somewhat complex, and while they're working on that, for the end-user it is not really intuitive, so that could be improved. Currently, we are not using the predictive analytics capabilities, so I cannot say anything about it.

Quotes from Members

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 is a great product for running statistical analysis."

"It handles large data better than the previous system that we were using, which was basically Excel and Access. We serve upwards of 300,000 parts over a 150 regions and we need to crunch a lot of numbers."

"In the solution, I like the virtualization of data flow since it shows what goes where, which is mostly the strength of the tool."

"It's a very organized product. It's easy to use."

"Some basic form of feature engineering for classification models. This really quickens the model development process."

"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."

"Our go live process has been slightly enhanced compared to the previous programmatic process. There is now a faster time to production from the business end."

More IBM SPSS Modeler pros

"Ability to pull together multiple sources of information."

"The dashboard interface is intuitive and the user is able to interact with it to receive good results from the analytic."

"Oracle Advanced Analytics helps us to steer the company, to create centralized reports and dashboards so that we're all using the same information, and we're not relying that much on Excel and different custom reporting solutions."

"Oracle Advanced Analytics effectively prevents threats and helps maintain a secure network environment."

"When needed, we will work closely with Oracle support and implement their workaround in our application."

Cons

"If IBM could add some of the popular models into the SPSS for further analysis, like popular regression models, I think that would be a helpful improvement."

"Dimension reduction should be classified separately."

"I can say the solution is outdated."

"The time series should be improved."

"We would like to see better visualizations and easier integration with Cognos Analytics for reporting."

"When I used it in the office, back in the day, we did have some stability issues. Sometimes it just randomly crashed and we couldn't get good feedback. But when I use it for my own stuff now I don't have any problems."

"The forecasting could be a bit easier."

"I would not rate the technical support very well. The technicians have accents. When you do find someone, it is very hard to get somebody able to answer the technical questions."

More IBM SPSS Modeler cons

"There are some transactions we have not been able to find through the dashboard."

"The performance, scalability and queries should be addressed, as well as the data distribution of certain data techniques."

"One area for product improvement is the user experience, particularly when navigating through screens."

"Could use some refinement getting things that are not standard cloud applications, but more customized."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"This tool, being an IBM product, is pretty expensive."

"It is an expensive product."

"It got us a good amount of money with quick and efficient modeling."

"$5,000 annually."

"If you are in a university and the license is free then you can use the tool without any charges, which is good."

"Its price is okay for a company, but for personal use, it is considered somewhat expensive."

"It is a huge increase to time savings."
