Which software is best to use for statistical data analysis in clinical research especially in the field of Health Sciences, when we have to analyze large data?
In case of retrospective and prospective Cohort Studies?
In case of Randomized Controlled trial?
Both have their own merits. SPSS is generally a little more clunky and has an interface which is not amenable to quick sorting and filtering for data cleaning, and using the command line in SPSS to make tasks faster is a little less generalisable than using it in Stata (which is similar to R, so experience carries over). Functionality-wise, both are great.
Although Stata and SPSS are both powerful statistical software programs, Stata is usually thought to be slightly more accurate for intricate computations. With output electronically compared to prior runs, Stata's multi-platform test suite is built to provide verifiably accurate findings. Although SPSS is easy to use and appropriate for a range of applications, it might not be as reliable for sophisticated computations.

I love SPSS. It is an excellent tool to handle large input!
