What do you like best about the product?
Common statistical software so we can work with collaborators at other institutions. Standard import/export functions well with electronic data capture tools that provide SPSS as an export format. Able to perform complex analysis and between different data sets.
What do you dislike about the product?
Difficult to grasp for entry level workers. In research most of our analysis is done by research assistants which most have minimal knowledge on this program and it's not very intuitive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a healthcare research group we are able to analyze large sets of data that contain protected health information since we own the instance and it's not on a cloud.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Extremely advanced and well utilized software with great security features.

SPSS Review

  • July 11, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
SPSS is pretty user friendly, easy to learn, and has all the functions I need at my level in psychology research. The layout is clean and has most of the basic functionalities available in the program's various dropdown menus. I like the program's ability to write and modify your own syntax.
What do you dislike about the product?
SPSS can often get bogged down doing something as simple as selecting, deleting, or copying big chunks of data. Sometimes I'll have to close the program and restart it. This has been a common complaint among colleagues using the program.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use SPSS to crunch large datasets for research and clinical purposes at an anxiety clinic. The program has helped us see trends and other useful information utilizing various statistical analyses.

Statistics software that's easy to use

  • June 29, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that SPSS is easy to use but also allows users to compute more advanced statistics utilizing the sytnax options. These syntax options allow you to contribute to science by sharing what you've done. Also, this allows you to better understand how the software works and replicate your analyses for the future.
What do you dislike about the product?
SPSS does not have a good graphing or chart building platform. Also, SPSS is much more expensive than other statistical softwares. While SPSS makes statistics easy, there are growing platforms that are free of charge and have great resources for trouble shooting issues that arise.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use SPSS to analyze data collected for research projects, mostly for my academic program's benchmarks (theses and dissertation). I've been able to compute parametric and nonparametric analyses with ease using SPSS. The benefits I've realized are basically being able to I have been publish my results in decent journals.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
SPSS is the current standard in statistical computing but may be forced to adjust due to lower price, more flexible platforms. It's still one of the best on the market though. SPSS gives you the option to paste your scripts. I recommend doing this because it allows you to track your analyses and potentially share what you've done with other researchers attempting the same kind of computations.

SPSS IS GREAT FOR RESEARCH

  • June 27, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
SPSS is great for data input. Not everyone is fluent in statistical research and SPSS is great for qualitative and quantitative research. Even if you are not familiar with the database, IMB provides an extensive manual to help with the software which makes usage great!
What do you dislike about the product?
So far, there is nothing I dislike about SPSS other than it can take a while to download. However, I believe they have worked a fix for that becuase the last update did not take as long to download.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SPSS is great for ANOVA, MANOVA, multiple regression, linear regression, descriptive statistics and so much more. Ones you have your data aligned SPSS makes it easy to compare groups, variables, etc. Currently, I am using the software in my own research.
