Not as adaptable as some of the new statistic software, but a stable in the field
What do you like best about the product?
Generally, everyone used or has used SPSS, so it is easy to communicate your analyses across lab groups, universities, etc. As such, it is relatively simple to find help/support online from other users on how to run different sorts of analyses online.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are many statistical analysis programs on the market these days. SPSS is still a paid program, not open-source like R, for example. It also is rather buggy--the GUI works just fine, but the Syntax (code for programming analyses) not so uncommonly will not work for no reason at all. Only retyping the problem section will fix this issue. If you prefer using code for analyses, SPSS is less intuitive and more difficult than other programs. The graphs and plots generated directly from SPSS are actually quite awful and need to be redone in another program before they can be used in any reasonable publication or presentation.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a long-standing stable in the field, we teach this in classes to all our undergraduates. It's a great starter program for analyses because of the easy to use GUI.
robust application to analyze data and create statistics
What do you like best about the product?
ability to analyze massive amounts of data
application is also very popular among support, education etc.
lots of built-in calculation, analysis tools, etc.

What do you dislike about the product?
outdated design interface. App didn't change much even after many years in the market. Only more functionality added.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
calculation of users' data, usage
Software that is overly complicated
What do you like best about the product?
The software has some powerful features for finding trends.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is not intuitive. There are some basic workflows that could be automated.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
it doesn't really meet our needs. we like to evaluate the responses to surveys, but SPSS hasn't given us the insights we were hoping to find.
Great tool for statistical analysis
What do you like best about the product?
This software offers a lot of tools to analyze datasets. Bringing in data is very easy, it’s simple to join datasets together, there are a lot of models and statistical packages available, as well as other options to transform the data.
What do you dislike about the product?
The documentation is sometimes difficult to navigate, as well as some of the available options.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SPSS is used to join large datasets together and perform various tests on them. It makes it easier than using VBA or other tools that don’t have easy access to the data.
If you like point and click stats, this is a great program
What do you like best about the product?
I like spss for analytics, and it is much simpler than a program like SAS. I don't use SPSS daily, as I am a coder and love SAS, however, SPSS is good for a beginner.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is minimal on graphing, which is imperative in my job. I also think it could be much more user friendly. I don't like having to try to search for the analytical procedure I want to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Love the analytics, easy statistical procedures, and good for traditiinal analyses.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is a straight forward program if you already know your stats. Its great for a beginner and minimally inexpensive.
SPSS Statistics
What do you like best about the product?
I like the ease of using the software. It provides a menu that is pretty intuitive in its categories and includes most common tests one performs. There is of course the option to do more than the menu affords.
What do you dislike about the product?
I admit I am not fond of the price, for example compared to R (free & open). However, since it is something I do not pay for personally in the context where I use it, that is less of an issue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mostly analysis of test data in a higher education context, including reliability analysis and graphing. We also use it for more in-depth analysis
Review of SPSS
What do you like best about the product?
The part I like most is having concrete results.
What do you dislike about the product?
The most difficult part of SPSS is analyzing the results.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use SPSS for graduate school research. The benefits I have realized are that it's fairly simple to navigate once you have taken a course on it, and you can send files to others and they can work on it.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Watch tutorials before trying to use SPSS.
SPSS feasibility
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing about thus software is it's introductory material for those just learning how to do statistics.
What do you dislike about the product?
The least favorable feature is it's non parametric abilities.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Usually running ANOVAs and pairwise comparisons, t tests, outliers, and other dasta.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use online guides for help.
Excellent Data Science Software
What do you like best about the product?
exceptional data tracking and analytics
What do you dislike about the product?
use of the syntax is not very user friendly and takes quite a while to learn
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
it's a great research tool for multiple admins to get the data they need and derive results
Recommendations to others considering the product:
terrific tool for data scientists
SPSS is my life
What do you like best about the product?
It is relatively easy to use, and it remembers the tests I have run. with the click of a button on the tool ar, I can rerun those tests without bothering with the menus again. Syntax is also a lifesaver as it speeds up the time I would be spending rerunning analyses.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not as user-friendly as Excel. You cannot manipulate cells or format tables as easily as you can with Excel.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It speeds up my data analysis. It is also easy to learn, and easy to problem solve because there are so many youtube tutorials on different SPSS topics. love that i can save my syntax and reise it over and over again.
