SPSS Statistics
IBM SPSS Statistics is the industry-standard statistical software used by researchers, academics, and data analysts for hypothesis testing, predictive analytics, and data exploration. It provides a comprehensive suite of statistical tests, machine learning algorithms, data manipulation tools, and visualization capabilities. SPSS is widely deployed in universities, research institutions, government agencies, and enterprises for quantitative research, market analysis, and decision support. The software supports both graphical and syntax-based workflows and integrates with databases and external data sources.

1 suggestionIBM has confirmed that a native Apple Silicon build of SPSS Statistics will ship in release 32.0.1, scheduled for September 2026. You are currently running version 27 under Rosetta 2. Because the native build is not yet available, you can continue using your current installation through mid-2026; however, this is time-sensitive. Apple is removing Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (scheduled for Fall 2027), so if you do not upgrade to SPSS 32.0.1 or later before that deadline, the app will stop launching entirely. Watch IBM's release notes and the SPSS community forums for the September 2026 announcement of version 32.0.1, and plan to update as soon as it becomes available. If you need native Apple Silicon support sooner, contact IBM Support to ask about pre-release or early-access channels.
