This is why I switched to Python and even R because I can work with multiple packages ----- ### "SPSS- the originator of statistical analytics world" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *12 September 2024* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: SPSS is the pioneer in the statistical reporting world. It have advanced analytics function with AI enable predictive model. The kind of reports you can generate from it using BI is just awesome. Very smooth operation and wide level of inputs/ data sheets are accepted. Simply the best > > **Cons**: 1. It takes a lot of bandwidth to operate 2. No mobile app available.. already in your system 3. One needs to learn the tool well to start operating 4. Tutorials are not very useful > > Excellent Analytics tool but for pro level analysts only. ----- ### "The Leading application for data analysis" — 5.0/5 > **George** | *25 February 2019* | Research | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: SPSS is an excellent computer application for managing large data volumes. The desktop features allows for the non specialists to be able to analyze data and to use the various statistical functions. > > **Cons**: The graphics for reporting i.e the output graphs and charts are not so attractive to the eye > > It is a software that I was able to use with my small knowledge on software based analysis. ----- ### "Best stats package with the ease of functionality and mechanism." — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *23 November 2019* | Consumer Goods | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Very easy to use. High level functionality and easy to perform mechanisms. Fine way of operations. Can run anything from basic descriptive statistics to high level simulations. Easy to import data in different formats (csv, xls, sav, etc.). Data cleaning process are easily executed which includes missing value imputation, data recoding, and data restructuring. Very functional in running multivariate methods like exploratory factor analysis, ANOVA, linear regression, logistic regression, discriminant analysis, and MANCOVA. Most operations are done through interactive dashboard, which is hassle free. Overall it is a great statistical package to run different analysis at a very affordable price. > > **Cons**: It is tedious to do multiple iterations using SPSS. Syntax functionality is low and lines of codes become exhaustive when you run monte carlo simulations. The most challenging aspect is to run simulations with large data sets. The support provided by the support team doesn't extend beyond technical support. SPSS requires add ons for running the simulations which cost extra to the users. Overall it is deficient in running certain simulations. > > My overall experience with SPSS has been great and I strongly recommend it. It is very useful in market research and business analytics industry as most research projects deal with descriptive and multivariate statistical approach. I have been using SPSS for last ten years and it has provided very good functionality with each update and version. Overall I highly recommend this software package. ----- ### "The history of statistics" — 4.0/5 > **Luca** | *29 September 2020* | Market Research | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: The ability to perform almost all easy and complex statistical analysys without writing code AND the possibility to automate simple and complex tasks by actually writing code. This software is huge and it supports a very large set of feautures. > > **Cons**: This software is a milestone for statisticians of all over the world. I've been using it for more than 30 years. This means that this software is aging more and more, and perhaps it needs a faster modernization cycle than the current. > > This is the software that I use the most for my work and, even if at times I have to struggle a little to perform "new things", I always find a way. I managed to automate many many tasks and I have reached a very high level of productivity, meaning that I can click a button, let the computer run all nights, and the morning after I find all the jobs done. ----- Page: 1 / 27\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/390329/spss?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/390329/spss) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
