Easy to Use; Limited Functionality for Complex Statistics

  • November 02, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
SPSS is functional as s a point-and-click application; within the parameters of the application, statistical analyses are intuitive and easily accessible.
What do you dislike about the product?
Limited statistical flexibility beyond basic analyses. Syntax scripting provides a workaround, but coding less intuitive within SPSS framework. SPSS is also pricier than competing applications, and graph output is difficult to tailor. Data saved in SPSS is difficult to migrate, as files are not always compatible with other analysis programs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use SPSS primarily for statistical analyses.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
SPSS runs basic statistical analyses effectively and cleanly. For more complicated analytics and/or creation of graphs and tables, other programs may be more efficient.

GUI alternative to programming heavy statistics programs

  • October 31, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
SPSS provides a graphical user interface (GUI) which allows users to point and click their way through statistical analyses. This is a great introduction to statistical software for users who are not experienced with programming. It also allows for syntax to let users bridge between point and click and syntax. Although it is confined in the types of data it can handle, this is a benefit for new users, as it gives more structure. It also offers a wide array of statistical tests.
What do you dislike about the product?
It does not allocate memory well, making it difficult to work with big data within SPSS.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data analytics and management
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Good starting software for someone just learning statistical analyses

What do you dislike about the product?
it is limited for some analyses and for larger sets of data and modeling

Ease of SPSS

  • October 31, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I really enjoy how SPSS just involves clicking buttons. No really complicated coding is really that needed for a lot of stuff.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like how narrow its uses are. It does not have the multiple pooled cross sectional time series routines.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it mainly for statistical analysis in my research. It's helpful running a quick, easy analysis as opposed to having to type a bunch of code to run something that should be really simple.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's great for quick, easy analyses that aren't too complicated.

Good but not the best

  • October 30, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use with drop-down menu options for various analyses such as regression, ANOVA, MANOVA, descriptive statistics, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of command line input interface. Other softwares such as STATA provides you the ability to code.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SPSS allows to analyze the data to investigate association between variables. For example, it allows the analyst to understand the impact of employee turnover on firm performance.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
SPSS is a nice tool to get started with when it comes to analyzing data. However since everything is just click of few options, be careful that you know what analysis you are running.

Excellent analytic tool for analyzing survey results

  • October 30, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
IBM SPSS text analytics enables users to evaluate survey results in a way other survey providers do not.

Great customer service as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
Utilizing the analytical software using statistical programming may be more difficult for those unfamiliar with SPSS or similar statistical software/language.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This software has helped our organization quantify customers opinions and sentiment about out products, services, and support.
