Pros & Cons of RStudio

  • November 19, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
RStudio is one of the best tools for coding and debugging in R. The GUI is user friendly. It allows the user to view multiple windows together like editor, console, plots and environment variables. This helps to get work done faster. It also has many visualization packages, making it a good visualization tool as well. Box plots, scatter plots, heatmaps, scatter plot matrix, histogram, bar plot etc are all available for visualization of data. It is a great platform for statistical and data analysis.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the visualizations do not show the complete data. For example if you run neural networks with large number of hidden nodes, RStudio fails to display half the nodes and their bias values. Also, heatmaps of variable with a large name; do not display the entire variable name in the plot.
There are few packages that take too long to load and do not allow other packages to be downloaded simultaneously. This also affects execution of code at times
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I used RStudio for analyzing data sets with statistics and visualization. Then, for modelling my data with various classification and predictive methods and selecting the best based on performance. It helps develop business solutions for the data set being examined.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
RStudio is an easy to use application for statistical analysis and data visualization using R programming. A lot of analysis can be done using this tool: from cleaning you data set, data reduction, sampling and oversampling, to training different models and testing the results, so definitely try it.

The tool you need if you are exclusively into Data Analysis

  • November 13, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's an exclusive tool for Data Analysis
What do you dislike about the product?
It used to be a popular tool, now people are moving into python
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
College projects involving data analysis and the place I work where I use this tool for analyzing big data sets.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is an exclusive tool if you are looking to get some data science experience. There are researchers who prefer using this tool over python as they feel it helps them get involved with data science more. I personally would recommend this tool to all beginners as this is something that is still used in industries like Mu Sigma and it comes in handy if you are proficient in one skill that is very exclusive and demanding.

Programming in R

  • November 09, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is great data manipulation and data analysis tool. Open source so cost-effective and you can work with large datasets. There are quite a few communities and open forums where you can ask questions related to any project you are working in R or never troubles you come across. It has pretty intuitive visualizations. Compatible with most data sources. Great for statistical analysis.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is character sensitive which can sometime make the coding difficult. The packages are constantly updated and sometimes when you install a new package it may mask the functionalities of old packages. Can definitely improve on data visualization aspect.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In my organization, we mainly use it for data manipulation, formatting, statistical analysis.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Improved data visualizations
