SAS
SAS is a comprehensive statistical package that comes well
equipped to handle many of the needs of the applied researcher,
though it, like SPSS, is perhaps even more popular for marketing and
business needs in general. SAS is very powerful out of of the
box and capable of a wide variety of analyses. It is command
line driven first and foremost, though SAS Enterprise Guide offers
menu capability. It is more functional than SPSS base, and
also uses a macro system like SPSS to add additional functionality.
They can be seen as similar in their programming languages as
well, as such if you are choosing between SAS or SPSS you would
probably want to go with the former.
