Effective large data analysis software

  • October 25, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
When you know and understand the many formulae needed to use this software effectively, it is easy to use when trying to analyse large data sets.
What do you dislike about the product?
As previously mentioned, it takes a lot of complex formulas to effectively analyse data, and the shortcuts to formulate data in graphs and tables are hidden under dropdown and pop-up boxes that are hard to find.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am trying to analyse data for research relating to voting behaviours, trade data and other complex data sets. IBM SPSS does allow me to collate large data, but it requires knowledge of many formulae.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Research short cuts on using the software before paying the subscription fee.

SPSS-IBM

  • October 23, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The thing that i like most about SPSS is that once you figure out how to enter all your data, it gives you detailed results, and options to share your findings with others. Options to add values and labels are very clear and adjustable. You can tun multiple tests, regressions, ANOVAS and more.
What do you dislike about the product?
SPSS requires a little bit of background knowledge before you can fully utilize the software. Unless you know the definitions of certain tests and variables, you wouldn't understand how to correctly use the software. Validity is the biggest issue with any test but i think SPSS has made a good effort in improving tests and data entry for the software to produce the most accurate answers possible.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Alot of what i use SPSS for is survey data. The data collected is regarding different aspects of psychology. I then use this information to see if the data i collected is valid and statistically significant, This helps aid in research of different behavioral and psychological theories.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Lean to properly use the software and be sure the results are correct. If you dont know how to use the software it can skew your results.

Most advanced statistics tool

  • October 23, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
SPSS Statistics is one of the most sophisticated analysis tools on the market. Everything is included in this software, every statistical model there is. This is why I love this tool. In addition to functions, IBM provides outstanding support for this product.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is very complex application that is very hard to master. Good guides are almost impossible to find, you have to rely on IBM's support. I definitely used their support but it is much easier to find stuff on community forums.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
All the managerial decisions should be made by statistical models in my opinion. IBM SPSS statistics has allowed me to propose many solutions to problems in the company.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Recommended for every company that wants to implement statistics in their decision-making process. It might seem that application is expensive, but it definitely is worth your money.

Makes Statistics and Research EASY

  • October 22, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy it is to run statistical analyses for my research. Two clicks of a button and you have your output right there, it is so straightforward with barely any learning curve.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is a bit expensive, however it is definitely worth the money if statistics and testing/research is a big part of your organization.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Not only does SPSS help underscore statistical reasoning and results, it doesn't punish you with mathematics or technology. You can easily adapt to SPSS from alternative methods, it gives you accurate information extremely fast, and it simplifies everything instead of making things more complicated and confusing. I love working with SPSS
Recommendations to others considering the product:
SPSS gives you a real bang for your buck. No other program is as easy to use or as accurate when running statistical analyses. From students, to researchers, to professors, SPSS is a great program and I cannot recommend it highly enough, especially in terms of Psychological research.

The Most Advanced Statistics Tool

  • October 22, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
In my opinion, SPSS Statistics is the most sophisticated tool for expert users. What I like most about it is its community. Many users gather together at its community forums to discuss specific problems and usually, people find what they are looking for at these forums. I would also like to mention that this tool has almost every feature one might imagine, which makes it a pretty solid weapon in the hands of analyst.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes application freezes when big amount of data is fed to it. This causes problems, but the best part of this issue is that you know it from the beginning that the application will crash. This is definitely not something that always happens, it is pretty rare but it was something that came to my mind when thinking of things that I dislike about this terrific application.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Many big decisions that the company made was pretty much derived from the results of this application. IBM SPSS Statistics provides users with lots of features that are quite unique and useful.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely worth your investment. This tool provides unmatched benefits.

There are a few things that one must keep in mind about SPSS. In my opinion it is a basic software which can easily tranfer your raw data from softwares like excel. The drop down menus really help in making such that you do not have to type commands. Much of the work is done by the software for you, One more feature is that SPSS allows you to make graphs within the software which saves you the time to make them in excel. it is much cheaper and is easy to teach and use yourself.
