Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I've found the descriptive statistics and cross-tabs valuable. The very simple correlations and regressions are as well."
"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."
"One feature I found very valuable was the analysis of variance (ANOVA)."
"The most valuable feature of IBM SPSS Statistics is all the functionality it provides. Additionally, it is simple to do the five-way analysis that you can into multidimensional setup space. It's the multidimensional space facility that is most useful."
"The most valuable features are the small learning curve and its ability to hold a lot of data."
"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."
"It offers very good visualization."
"It has the ability to easily change any variable in our research."
"Amazon Comprehend works with a large pool of doctors. They're building the product based on working with domain experts."
"The most important thing is that it's a multi-faceted solution. It's a kind of specialist, not a generalist. It can produce very specific information for the customer. It's totally different from Google or any search engine that produces generic information. It's specialty is that it's all on video."
"It has greatly improved the performance because it is standardized across the company."
"The solution is very easy to use."
"It is a very stable and reliable solution."
"Technical support is great. We have had weekly teleconferences with the technical people at IBM, and they have been fantastic."
"It stands out for its substantial AI capabilities, offering a broad spectrum of features for crafting solutions that meet specific requirements."
"The scalability of IBM Watson Studio is great."
"The system's ability to take a look at data, segment it and then use that data very differently."
 

Cons

"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."
"It could provide even more in the way of automation as there are many opportunities."
"SPSS slows down the computer or the laptop if the data is huge; then you need a faster computer."
"The solution needs more planning tools and capabilities."
"I would like SPSS to improve its integration with other data-filing IBM tools. I also think its duration with data, utilization, and graphics could be better."
"I'd like to see them use more artificial intelligence. It should be smart enough to do predictions and everything based on what you input."
"The design of the experience can be improved."
"Most of the package will give you the fixed value, or the p-value, without an explanation as to whether it it significant or not. Some beginners might need not just the results, but also some explanation for them."
"It is a bit complex to scale. It is still evolving as a product."
"We would like to see it less as one big, massive product, but more based on smaller services that we can then roll out to consumers."
"I want IBM's technical support team to provide more specific answers to queries."
"The main challenge lies in visibility and ease of use."
"The decision making in their decision making feature is less good than other options."
"So a better user interface could be very helpful"
"We would like to see it more web-based with more functionality."
"I think maybe the support is an area where it lacks."
"The initial setup was complex."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"More affordable training for new staff members."
"I rate the tool's pricing a five out of ten."
"The price of IBM SPSS Statistics could improve."
"It's quite expensive, but they do a special deal for universities."
"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."
"If it requires lot of data processing, maybe switching to IBM SPSS Clementine would be better for the buyer."
