Enhancing survey analysis that provides valued insightfulness
I use it to analyze questionnaire surveys related to a product, solution, or application, such as open data services, which I provide to consumers and end-users. These surveys contain evaluation assessments, and I use SPSS to analyze the responses The most valuable feature is its robust…

Provides all the frameworks and makes it easy to create environments for multiple projects
I have been very enthusiastic about artificial intelligence and machine learning since my first year. I started learning Python in my first year and was using a MacBook with the M1 chip, which didn't have native Python support.  I discovered Anaconda, which developed Python for Mac, so I started…

Easy to use with robust reporting and great visualizations
I am not sure what improvements could be made. Qlik Sense is very user-friendly. The only thing I would like to see is the ability to create a master app that opens when a user creates a new app that has all the master items, colors, logos, etc., that my organization uses. This would help with keeping master items the same across the apps and would make development a little quicker. This feature would also make it easier for our business users when they want to create an app since they wouldn't need to worry about adding all the needed data sources to it, it they were already there, and they could just press load.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Most of the product features are good but I particularly like the linear regression analysis."
"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."
"You can quickly build models because it does the work for you."
"It is a modeling tool with helpful automation."
"The features that I have found most valuable are the Bayesian statistics and descriptive statistics."
"It has the ability to easily change any variable in our research."
"The solution has numerous valuable features. We particularly like custom tabs. It's very useful. We end up analyzing a lot of software data, so features related to custom tabs are really helpful."
"The solution is very comprehensive, especially compared to Minitabs, which is considered more for manufacturing. However, whatever data you want to analyze can be handled with SPSS."
"It has a lot of functionality available, supports many libraries, and the developers are continually improving it."
"The solution is stable."
"I can use Anaconda for non-heavy tasks."
"It provides a unified platform where you can install Jupyter, Python Spider, and other related tools without needing separate installations."
"The most advantageous feature is the logic building."
"Voice Configuration and Environmental Management Capabilities are the most valuable features."
"The documentation is excellent and the solution has a very large and active community that supports it."
"With Anaconda Navigator, we have been able to use multiple IDEs such as JupyterLab, Jupyter Notebook, Spyder, Visual Studio Code, and RStudio in one place. The platform-agnostic package manager, "Conda", makes life easy when it comes to managing and installing packages."
"We have been using Qlik Sense to generate reports that have taken hours to prepare before that we are now able to update in a couple of minutes and are available to users on a centralized platform where they are able to get the required reports."
"The most valuable features of Qlik Sense are the integration and panel for reports. The integration is very fast even though we process a lot of information."
"The integration with R & Python for predictive modeling, and possibly machine learning in the future, is very valuable."
"We were able to identify easy things, such as when a contract was loaded incorrectly."
"All the visualizations have been so valuable."
"Obviously and considering that Qlik Sense is a data visualization application, the most attractive feature is the fast handling of large amounts of data and the attractive visualization of the same."
"We have had an easy time supplying content to our customers."
"With the changing business landscape, it is nice to access Qlik Sense through an external website. As an organization when we use QlikView Desktop, we need to connect to our internal network. We can access QlikView through the QlikView access point but the website has a little different look and feel than the desktop application."
 

Cons

"One of the areas that should be similar to Minitabs is the use of blogs. The Minitabs blog helps users understand the tools and gives lots of practical examples. Following the SPSS manual is cumbersome. It's a good, exhaustive manual, but it's not practical to use. With Minitabs, you can go to the blogs and find specific articles written about various components and it's very helpful. Without blogs, we find SPSS more complicated."
"I feel that when it comes to conducting multiple analyses, there could be more detailed information provided. Currently, the software gives a summary and an overview, but it would be beneficial to have specific details for each product or variable."
"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."
"IBM SPSS Statistics could improve the visual outputs where you are producing, for example, a graph for a company board of directors, or an advert."
"The technical support should be improved."
"Technical support needs some improvement, as they do not respond as quickly as we would like."
"The statistics should be more self-explanatory with detailed automated reports."
"This solution is not suitable for use with Big Data."
"One feature that I would like to see is being able to use a different language in a different cell, which would allow me to mix R and Python together."
"Having a small guide or video on the tool would help learn how to use it and what the features are."
"It crashes once in a while. In case of a reboot or something unexpected, the unseen code part will get diminished, and it relatively takes longer than other applications when a reboot is happening. They can improve in these areas. They can also bring some database software. They have software for analytics and virtualization. However, they don't have any software for the database."
"A lot of people and companies are investing in creating automated data cleaning and processing environments. Anaconda is a bit behind in that area."
"When you install Anaconda for the first time, it's really difficult to update it."
"Anaconda can't handle heavy workloads."
"Anaconda consumes a significant amount of processing memory when working on it."
"The ability to schedule scripts for the building and monitoring of jobs would be an advantage for this platform."
"More pivot table options, like the ability to have the totals row at the bottom of the table, would be helpful."
"Qlik Sense requires one to have a lot of technical knowledge."
"It's going to take 20 to 30 minutes to refresh sometimes."
"We want the next version of this solution to be cloud-based so that each user can access it from anywhere in the world with their phone, tablet, or computer without a VPN connection."
"Error handling is an area that needs to be improved."
"Data modelling automation needs improvement."
"Qlik Sense could include additional features for data preparation and integration, making it easier for users to clean, transform, and integrate data from various sources."
"Reload time is a limit since everyone wants real-time data."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing of the modeler is high and can reduce the utility of the product for those who can not afford to adopt it."
"While the pricing of the product may be higher, the accompanying service and features justify the investment."
"I rate the tool's pricing a five out of ten."
"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."
"It's quite expensive, but they do a special deal for universities."
"The price of IBM SPSS Statistics could improve."
"More affordable training for new staff members."
"If it requires lot of data processing, maybe switching to IBM SPSS Clementine would be better for the buyer."
"The product is open-source and free to use."
"The tool is open-source."
"Anaconda is free to use, but in terms of hardware costs, you might need heavy GPUs to run CUDA and other demanding tasks."
"My company uses the free version of the tool. There is also a paid version of the tool available."
"The licensing costs for Anaconda are reasonable."
"For personal use, the desktop version of Qlik Sense is absolutely free, and you can share visualizations with others and to a personal cloud space, though limited with storage space."
"The solution is worth it."
"You need to pay 5,000 Norwegian kroner per user. Microsoft Power BI is slightly more expensive than Qlik Sense."
"Costs are a little high on the license/token side. However, if you look at the TCO, it is not too bad, particularly against Power BI."
"The costs can initially become quite high. Make sure you have a clear understanding of who will truly use the product as opposed to someone that will simply receive the end report."
"Currently, our ROI is clear and concise decision-making. This timely addition will easily add $15 million to our bottom line in 2017."
"I'm not able to reveal the licensing cost for Qlik Sense, but because it was a huge deal, the cost was less than the usual cost. The license wasn't that costly. It was the infrastructure that was very costly."
"I believe pricing is similar to other products in the same category, if you have it on-premise."
