Data is everywhere, but are you truly taking advantage of yours? Minitab Statistical Software can look at current and past data to discover trends, We can help you predict better outcomes.
Organizations of all types have relied on proven IBM SPSS Statistics technology to increase revenue, outmaneuver competitors, conduct research, and data driven decision-making.
Mini tab is a great product for Statistical analysis. As part of Continuous Improvement initiatives using minitab offer ability to view large data and provide meaningful results.
They removed project manager feature from version 19. Why??? I am so desperate, need to downgrade to version 17.
I can define as fantastic due the flexibility and how easy is to handle, additional the graphical part is helpful to prepare report and make better business decisions.
Its is quite difficult and take sometime to understand the features. New users may get confused as it contains so many options.
It's super useful for my 6-sigma course. Has a one-click distribution analysis that helps deciding what capability study one should use.
The biggest con I have of Minitab is the graphical output it gives to their plots/analysis: if you have a lot of data points in becomes a messy problem to deal visually.
It helps to save huge time and easy to run a report. This version is better in term of visualizing and supporting, especially with assistant and learning package.
That was crucial feature for educational purposes. There is no way to properly organize my output project to be presented to course instructor.
All in all IBM SPSS Statistics is a super solid and reliable solution for your statistical analysis needs and is still my number one choice.
It is unreasonable to blame a program for my own limitations.
I like that you can simply click through the options in order to complete the analysis. The syntax feature is also great because you can save your work and re-use the same syntax again and again.
Horrible graphics you need to export data to work on Excel. High price and need to buy separate modules not included.
I like the visualizations. It wonderful that you can edit graphs and charts to suit your preferences, without any chances to the actual data.
The output window looks about the same as it did 10 years ago and is getting obsolete.
Fantastic experience while using SPSS and would love to continue as no other better alternative is available.
SPSS is a bit costly compared to similar software.
Joe M.: Hi, I'm Joe. I'm a lead engineer. I'd give Minitab a five out of five. For more reviews like this, click below. Before Minitab, we used Excel. We switched from Excel to Minitab just for the more powerful analytical tools and the ease of creating charts. We chose Minitab because we needed a way to do more powerful analytics without taking the time to generate macros as well as generating nice-looking charts that could easily be put into reports. Minitab was really easy to get started to use. It functions a lot like Excel. You do need to have some background knowledge and statistics, but it's really easy to get started with. I'd really recommend Minitab, especially if you're looking for more powerful charts, but you do need to have a background in statistics to really utilize it.
Michael A.: I'm Michael. I am a market researcher and a digital transformation specialist. I work at a company size that's over 5,000 people, and I am a five out of five with IBM SPSS. I use IBM on a day-to-weekly basis for a lot of analyses, especially survey analyses, market research data. What I like most about SPSS is ease of use, its user-friendliness. It's a resemblance of Excel in functionality, except you have a lot more power and capabilities with it, and it's this familiar interface and expansiveness of value delivery that makes it a solid choice for users without as much technical specificities to deliver big insights and value. I like pretty much everything about it. It continuously improves and I'm not sure what's on the road map for it in terms of the bigger IBM picture, so I can't really say what I don't like. I'm sure they continuously roll out better things as time goes on.
