How SPSS Statistics Works

From a raw data file to a decision-ready report — in one tool, without writing code.

  1. Import & prepare

    Bring in data from spreadsheets, databases and other stats tools, then clean, recode and handle missing values.

  2. Explore & test

    Describe your data and run the right statistical tests to confirm what is really significant.

  3. Model & predict

    Build regression, forecasting and classification models to anticipate what happens next.

  4. Explain & share

    Use the AI Output Assistant and custom tables to turn output into clear, shareable findings.

Trusted results

Move beyond spreadsheets to answers you can defend

The difference between a hunch backed by a chart and a finding backed by sound statistics.

What is IBM SPSS Statistics?

IBM SPSS Statistics is a statistical analysis platform used to explore data, test hypotheses and build predictive models. It covers everything from descriptive statistics to regression, forecasting and decision trees, and includes an AI Output Assistant that explains results in plain language.

Do we need to know programming to use it?

No. Most analyses run from menus and dialog boxes. Advanced users can save and automate work with SPSS syntax, and extend it with R and Python when needed.

Which edition or add-ons do we need?

Everyone starts with the base subscription. Add-ons cover custom tables and advanced statistics, forecasting and decision trees, and complex sampling and testing. We review your analyses and recommend only what your team will use.

Subscription or perpetual licence — which is better?

Subscriptions are paid per user, monthly or annually, and always include the latest version. Perpetual licences are a one-time purchase for long-term use. Campus and student editions are available for academic institutions.

What is the AI Output Assistant?

It is a feature powered by IBM watsonx.ai that lets you ask questions about your SPSS output and get clear, guided explanations — making results easier to understand and share with non-statisticians.

Can SPSS connect to our databases?

Yes. SPSS reads Excel, CSV, SAS and Stata files and connects to databases such as Db2, Oracle and SQL Server through ODBC. We set up the connections so analysts always work from current data.
