Associate Professor Of Statistics at a university with 10,001+ employees

Advanced predictive analytics have supported my research and student projects across many methods

The only function I may need to be added or hope to be added to IBM SPSS Statistics is how to treat unstructured data. This mainly exists with IBM SPSS Modeler, but I do not think it is able to treat something like videos and similar content unless you are using languages like Python inside IBM SPSS Modeler or inside IBM SPSS Statistics. For the menu itself, for the selection, it does not exist. Thinking of the future, I believe that the owners of IBM SPSS Statistics should think about improving the package itself to be able to treat unstructured data.

Runs complete data sets with no sampling, but we have struggled with uptime

I use Aster Analytics in our Marketing group for analyzing customer interactions and paths that lead to churn. We have a system with 50 hosts and 1680 CPUs All of our marketing data is in one place. Every analysis uses straightforward PostgreSQL. Speed is good now that we’ve upgraded hosts.…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"The most valuable feature is its robust statistical analysis capabilities."

"It is perfectly adequate if all you need are the results and not the trail of evidence."

"The most valuable features are the small learning curve and its ability to hold a lot of data."

"The current features meet with the needs of our company."

"The features that I have found most valuable are the Bayesian statistics and descriptive statistics."

"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."

"If you want to do a quick analysis, SPSS is quite robust and quicker in terms of providing the output."

"They have many existing algorithms that we can use and use effectively to analyze and understand how to put our data to work to improve what we do."

More IBM SPSS Statistics pros

"It allowed for the rapid development of a solution delivered to the client, showing, for the specific use-case he had, monitoring defects."

"It has been fantastic for running complete data sets (no sampling required)."

"Provides ease of formulating a solution based on SQL-like queries."

"nPath has made journey/path analysis much easier."

Cons

"IBM SPSS Statistics is mostly working with structured data. However, if you are having unstructured data, IBM SPSS Statistics is not able up to now to work with it."

"Improvements are needed in the user interface, particularly in terms of user-friendliness."

"Perhaps in terms of visualization. It's not really easy to do some data visualization, just simple, descriptive analysis in SPSS. I think that could be an area for improvement."

"SPSS is a tool that's been around since the late 60s, and it's the universal worldwide standard for quantitative social science data analysis. That said, it does seem a bit strange to me that the graphical output functions are so clunky after all these years. The output of charts and graphs that SPSS produces is hideous."

"In comparing the price of other products, SPSS Statistics is too expensive."

"I think the visualization and charting should be changed and made easier and more effective."

"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."

"It would be helpful if there was better documentation on how to properly use the solution. A beginner's guide on how to use the various programming functions within the product would be so useful to a lot of people. I found that everything was very confusing at first. Having clear documentation would help alleviate that."

More IBM SPSS Statistics cons

"I have found some problems with the figures depicted on graphs and figures shown, like scores which could not be negative but which were depicted as such."

"I would like to see more/better documentation. They also need to enhance analytic/data science algorithms."

"We have struggled with uptime. Some of the features need to be updated."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"More affordable training for new staff members."

"Our licence is on a yearly renewal basis. While pricing is not the primary concern in our evaluation, as products are assessed by whether they can meet our user needs and expertise, the cost can be a limiting factor in the number of licences we procure."

"I rate the tool's pricing a five out of ten."

"It's quite expensive, but they do a special deal for universities."

"If it requires lot of data processing, maybe switching to IBM SPSS Clementine would be better for the buyer."

"We think that IBM SPSS is expensive for this function."

"The price of this solution is a little bit high, which was a problem for my company."

"SPSS is an expensive piece of software because it's incredibly complex and has been refined over decades, but I would say it's fairly priced."
