Go for SPSS. this is way better than any other statistical tool that can be used for data analysis. I have personally used this tool and trust me, it can conduct multivariate analysis.

Kumar, although SPSS can conduct multivariate analysis effortlessly, it cannot used for cutting-edge research. For this purpose you have to use STATA.

By Keerthi Gupta Answered 5 years ago

Keerthi, STATA is hardly used in social science. It is mainly used in economics. Also it cannot analyse complex data and is weak when compared to that of SPSS in terms of data analysis. Also using SPSS, you can develop outputs into the reports directly.
