5/5
What do you like best about IBM SPSS Statistics?

I use SPSS every day working in Institutional Research in Higher Education. I have been using SPSS Statistics since version 9. I also use Custom Tables. This product allows me to easily analyze large amounts of data with ease. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IBM SPSS Statistics?

The only improvement I would suggest is when merging two data sets together that SPSS automatically assigns variable type and lengths to be the same.

Another thing I miss are prior to IBM taking over SPSS, there were easy and affordable trainings available. Now it is complicated to register for training. I miss that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Using IBM SPSS -My Honest Experience and Thoughts"
4/5
What do you like best about IBM SPSS Statistics?

I really like how easy it is to run complex analyses without feeling lost. Even simple things, like running a regression or making charts, are straightforward. The outputs are clear, and the graphs look professional, which is a huge time saver. Plus, if you want, you can use the syntax to automate tasks makes life a lot easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IBM SPSS Statistics?

The biggest downside for me is that it can feel a bit slow, especially with really large datasets. Sometimes simple operations take longer than I expect. Also, the interface looks a bit outdated compared to newer tools—it works fine, but it doesn’t feel modern or sleek. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best tool for learning and analysis"
5/5
What do you like best about IBM SPSS Statistics?

It is particularly ideal for researchers and business professionals. It is very easy to use and I always appreciate an easy UI. The point and click system can be easily used to perform complex analyses without much knowledge of programming. I use it very frequently. Its easy to implement and I have not yet had to contact customer support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IBM SPSS Statistics?

It is not too easy to use for new users especially ones who are unfamiliar with statistical analyses. Integration on other platforms is limited. High licensing costs so unfeasible for students. Lacks flexibility for personalization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Robust statistical analysis tool with an intuitive interface"
4.5/5
What do you like best about IBM SPSS Statistics?

SPSS offers a clean and structured interface that makes advanced statistical analysis accessible even to users with limited coding experience. I especially appreciate the wide range of built-in tests, its flexibility in handling complex datasets, and how easy it is to visualize outputs. The syntax feature is great for repeatability, and it integrates well with Excel and CSV workflows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IBM SPSS Statistics?

SPSS can feel outdated in terms of UI compared to modern tools, and the licensing structure is somewhat rigid and expensive for individual or smaller team use. Also, while it's great for structured analysis, it lacks some of the flexibility and extensibility of open-source alternatives like R or Python when it comes to custom modeling or data wrangling.
