Overall Satisfaction with IBM SPSS
SPSS is used by a variety of our senior-level scientists and Directors to perform ad hoc analysis of data. The sources of data include manufacturing information, clinical trial information, and preclinical information. It avoids having to go back to our consulting biostatistician for items that we are straightforwardly able to accomplish. This results in lower cost and more fluid turnaround time.
Pros
- A broad variety of statistical tests
- Handles various types of data
- Relatively easy to use and share
Cons
- Some degree of validation assurance - ala an FDA perspective on validation of the system - would be very helpful
- More cost-effective options in using SPSS
