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 features are the solution is easy to use, training new users is not difficult, and our usage is comprehensive because the whole service is beneficial.""The best part is that they have an algorithm handbook, so you can open it up and understand how it works, and if it is useful, this is very important.""The features that I have found most valuable are the Bayesian statistics and descriptive statistics.""SPSS can handle whatever you throw at it, whether your data set contains 10,000, 100,000, or a million objects. It's like the heavy artillery of analytical tools.""I've found the descriptive statistics and cross-tabs valuable. The very simple correlations and regressions are as well.""The software offers consistency across multiple research projects helping us with predictive analytics capabilities.""SPSS is quite robust and quicker in terms of providing you the output.""It is a modeling tool with helpful automation."

Cons
"SPSS slows down the computer or the laptop if the data is huge; then you need a faster computer.""The technical support should be improved.""The solution needs more planning tools and capabilities.""Needs more statistical modelling functions.""I know that SPSS is a statistical tool but it should also include a little bit of analytical behavior. You can call it augmented analysis or predictive analysis. The bottom line is it should have more graphical and analytical capabilities.""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.""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."

  • "The price of this solution is a little bit high, which was a problem for my company."
  • "The pricing of the modeler is high and can reduce the utility of the product for those who can not afford to adopt it."
