Most Popular GUI based IDE for R programming

  • July 16, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
R Studio has an amazing User Interface with all the different windows providing bird eye view of the data with a vast array of function and libraries available which are easy to install and use. R Studio has all the other features that are expected from an IDE for such a strong language.
What do you dislike about the product?
The installation process is complicated when installing for the first time. Also, the layout can get clumsy sometimes. The memory usage needs to be optimized so that variables and functions can work more efficiently.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
R Studio has helped me in various Data Analysis projects with K Mean Clustring, Naive Bayes and Decision Tree based data analysis and prediction.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
RStudio is definitely recommended for beginners working with R for data analytics.

User friendly with many analytic potentials

  • June 25, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
R studio is much more user friendly than classic R. As a coding language, it’s easier to learn than other softwares. The internet has great advice and guidance on how to code what you’re trying to code.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish the built in help was better. I wish there was a built in user manual like Stata has.I have to rely on the internet to figure certain things out.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I used R for mapping election results, and running predictive and causal regressions on energy usage.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Practice coding and get familiar with web forums of people who provide coding advice

RStudio is great!

  • June 13, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
There's a terminal for executing R commands and you can view various plots that you'd like to see. For example, recently I've had to make a lot of violin plots of various groups within an agricultural dataset, and RStudio was able to effectively show me all the variation within the groups quickly and effectively, and is able to parse all that data, probably over a gigabyte
What do you dislike about the product?
R itself isn't too nice to use, for certain cases. For example, I've had to stitch reports together but it was somewhat more annoying to do. This may be a critical drawback if you create many reports in the day.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data analysis of various data sets
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Doesn't necessarily help you learn R, so learn that first before using RStudio.

User friendly interface for R

  • June 07, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I recently started to work with R and statistical analysis for my PhD project. RStudio is basically R with buttons and more useful resources. The auto save sessions are amazing and you don't have to be worried about your computer shut down or anything that can happen somethings, you are not gonna lose your data. To install packages is super easy and there is a lot of them out there. The console is super user friendly and the script screen is pretty clear. Even for beginners like me, RStudio looks easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
One thing I don't like about the RStudio is the lack of auto updating R feature. When a new R is released, you have to download and install it manually, RStudio does not recognize a new version of R. And you also have to copy and paste your packages from the old R to the new directory, RStudio cannot handle it yet.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
RStudio helped me to analyze my RNA-seq data in one week, and I never worked with this kind of data before. It looks clear and easy, just type and run your script, do it all over again and your work are done.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you have to run lot of data in R and you are a beginner or not a bioinformatics guy, use RStudio, the interface is good and user friendly, everything is pretty clear in the screen, you will know when something is wrong with your code and RStudio gives you some hint to make the code work.

RStudio is a ok

  • June 07, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's probably the best way to do scripting in R. It plainly and easily displays the console, command line, data files, and graphs & tables all in the same interface.
What do you dislike about the product?
R in general isn't the best language. There's nothing really that it does that other languages can't do equally if not better, but this isn't as much an issue with Rstudio as it is with R.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Machine learning and probs and stats
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use python
