What do you like best about the product?
For people looking to apply statistics and play with data, its an easiest programming language with a convenient interface.

Best IDE for R programming

  • February 06, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Best IDE for R programming in the market and that too for free. The user interface is very clean and very easy to understand. It is open source and available in all the operating systems and many features for data analysis. One of the best IDE for statistical analysis and predictive modelling.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing much to dislike about the software. If you are used to IDE's such as pycharm or intelliG you may feel it as too simple. But it does the work and its free of cost, so nothing much to complain
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am doing academic and individual projects with it. It is very effective IDE for doing projects in R programming language. Not only for academic projects it is widely used nowadays in the IT industry for tasks such as statistical analysis and predictive modelling and also for generating reports in data science.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely go with it. It is the best in the market. You should see the benefits of the R studio for yourself and then compare it to any other software's and then go by your decision.

R studio for high throughput data analysis of protein microarrays

  • February 02, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the ease of use, the layout of the studio that allows you to visualize your data in both the graphical form and spreadsheet in different panels which can also be adjusted and customized. Also it's great to have the terminal and scripts in the same window separated by different panels it makes it easy to modify the script and then execute the modifications. Additionally for graphical representation I really liked that you can add packages such as pretty heatmaps to use presets that make data visualization look more professional.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't really have any negatives, it's a great platform to use R in a very efficient way.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use RStudio for the generation of graphical representation of microarray highthrougput data in science.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Amazing platform that makes the generation of graphical representations easier.

Perfect IDE for programming and performing data analysis

  • February 02, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the fact that, unlike other consoles, Rstudio offers everything in a consolidated way. I no longer have to fidget around different tabs to find my variable environments. I have all of it available. Also, it allows you to check your data frames and filter it in a GUI format, so you no longer have to write custom codes if you just want to look at a few values.
What do you dislike about the product?
Whenever a plot is being made, the IDE shows you a version of the plot. However, the dimensions of the plot are not correct. So you see an incorrect version of the plot on R studio unless you zoom completely or save it somewhere else and then view it using a different app.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
R Studio is an IDE which allows you to perform data analytics. It is a perfect console that lets you view your results as soon as the code is written. One of the business problems I am solving using R studio is to cluster similar products together. Fortunately, R provides you with a lot of in-built packages for data analysis. Moreover, there are multiple advanced packages like CARET available for complex machine learning algorithms.
