SPSS Upgrade Offers Multi-Language Text Analysis

MR software and predictive analytics giant SPSS has updated its text analysis platform to enable users to analyze text in multiple languages and then integrate this insight with other quantitative data.

SPSS Text Analysis for Surveys 3.0 can analyze text responses in six native languages, and an additional 30 languages can be analyzed through automated translation powered by Language Weaver.

Data can also be exported and analyzed with other quantitative data in SPSS products, such as its statistical software or data collection survey software, or in Microsoft Excel.

In addition, the system helps identify major themes and capture customer sentiment in surveys, without having to read and manually recode responses word for word.

The new version includes dozens of pre-built categories for customer, product or employee satisfaction surveys.

VP of Product Marketing Bob Dutcher commented: 'This latest upgrade gives organizations the ability to quickly analyze and gain full value from text responses - in multiple languages - and then integrate this insight with other quantitative data to gain a full view of the customer.'

Founded in 1968, Chicago, Illinois-headquartered SPSS today has more than 250,000 public sector, academic and commercial customers.
