Room For Improvement

IBM SPSS Statistics needs improvements in visualization, pricing, interface, integration, documentation, and automation for better user experience.
Alteryx users seek better integration, user-friendliness, and pricing, alongside enhanced machine learning, visualization, and cloud capabilities.
TIBCO Data Science requires installation, usability, and customization improvements for diverse templates, smooth operations, and user-friendly interaction.
The tool could include more native connectors, such as for global ERPs, instead of requiring additional fees for these connections.
 

Setup Cost

IBM SPSS Statistics is costly, with advanced models up to $7,000, though discounts exist for educational and developing regions.
Alteryx's high costs are offset by value and discounts, but can be prohibitive for smaller businesses.
Alteryx is more cost-effective compared to Informatica licenses, offering savings.
It has a fair price when considering a larger-scale implementation.

IBM SPSS Statistics offers a user-friendly interface, robust analysis features, and flexible data handling for comprehensive statistical projects.
Alteryx offers a user-friendly, code-free environment for data processing with powerful integration, automation, and predictive capabilities.
TIBCO Data Science automates report delivery, enhances data access, and simplifies visualization setup with strong performance benefits.
Alteryx is user-friendly and allows easy creation of workflows compared to Informatica PowerCenter.
The tool's flexibility in saving processes and using a vast amount of available memory has been extremely helpful.

Md Masudul Hassan - PeerSpot reviewer
Comprehensive data analysis capabilities with a user-friendly interface, providing an efficient and reliable platform for researchers and analysts
I believe that offering short-term SPSS licenses, perhaps when customer sourcing is available, could make it more affordable. These licenses shouldn't include features tailored for universities or large sales organizations. Instead, they could offer discounts or additional facilities for smaller entities to access the software. In developing countries, it would be beneficial to provide certain features to users at no cost initially, while also customizing pricing options. For example, offering basic features to the first hundred users can help them become familiar with the software and its capabilities. This approach encourages users to upgrade to higher tiers as they become more experienced and require additional functionality.
Vivek Vaibhav - PeerSpot reviewer
Has a good UI and drag-and-drop features which makes it easy to understand
There have been some issues with licensing, particularly with the increased prices. This has led some companies, including ours, to consider reducing the number of licenses or potentially discontinuing their use of Alteryx. Since most of our team members work with Alteryx, deploying workflows to clients who may not have licenses became a hurdle. Every user needed a license to run the workflows, which could pose difficulties, especially for clients who only needed occasional access for small data analyses. Unlike other software like Microsoft Power BI, which offers free trials or user licenses for basic functionality, Alteryx doesn't provide such options, potentially limiting its accessibility for occasional users. It should improve scalability.
VS
A straightforward initial setup and good reporting but needs better documentation
It would be ideal if it could be put onto the NMP where you can make more of an analysis. Right now, people don't have enough time to go through the report and make an analysis. It should provide the information of what is on the report into some kind of a dialogue form. Then, a person can ask certain questions and it could interactively give the required report. In terms of performance, I can see there are some issues when you are working with big data. When we are taking it from the Data Lake, we have a lot of issues. If you are doing certain operations of RDBMS, you suffer in terms of the latency of the data. That can be improved upon. Users should be able to cross tables of the web pages they are developing on Spotfire and this needs to be really easy and convenient. Right now, you need to do a lot of tweaks. The solution should be more user-friendly and require fewer tweaks, extensions, and workarounds.
