    Biotechnology

I use Rstudio daily to analyze genomic data, run statistical analysis, generate visualization, etc.

  • November 09, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It makes using R much easier and enjoyable, with the four quadrants layout I have total control of what I need for performing my analysis and I know where to search for variables, files navigation, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
It crashes often when it's running some computationally intense calculation (running clustering and using tSNE or UMAP plots), there's no solution for using with Google Cloud Platform and running it in a cloud environment by launching through the command line.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am working on a multimodal single cell genomic pipeline for characterization of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes.

It's a great platform for using R packages and reproducible research, generating deliverables for my boss and facilitating communication.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is the best IDE to use for statistical analysis in R. Make sure to read through R studio's recommendations, docs and tutorials for updated features as technology seems to be updated quite often

I love how easy rstudio makes it to code in R.
What do you dislike about the product?
The documentation for all the functions could be better
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Rstudio to do predictive models and it's so much easier and accurate than using excel

Best IDE for R Workflow

  • October 31, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
RStudio is an IDE packed with features for the R programmer. From a debugger to integrated documentation and easy package management. I particularly like how R Studio handles R Markdown files; it is pretty easy to create reproducible documents that are documented with Markdown. With RStudio I've become less dependent on google to search for documentation for R functionality. It is as easy as adding a ´?´ before the command name in R Studio console and the documentation for that function will display automatically.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like R Studio to have better collaborative features such as those found in databricks or IPython notebooks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- Data wrangling
- Exploratory Data Analysis using R graphics packages such as base, lattice and ggplot2
- Model development and Machine Learning
- Routine data exploration
- Integration with dashboard development tools such as Tableau for calculation assistance
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure you kleep it up to date as well as the base R package. Sometimes you m

The definitive enviroment for working with R

  • October 29, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
R Studio provides a strong environment to write both one-off scripts and R for production deployment.
What do you dislike about the product?
Editing multiple files is sometimes cumbersome, it is not super easy to maintain a clean workspace of multiple files.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Providing forecasts for the planning team.

Most of what you need for your analytical projects

  • October 29, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
RStudio provides a simple interface where it is easy to find what you need at the right moment. If you need to install a library package, or if you need to run a simple command on the terminal, look at your current variables, sort your datasets visually, look at your created graphs, everything is at the reach of your hand.

The shortcuts make the experience of programming a lot better as you can skip some nuisances pertaining to the language itself.
What do you dislike about the product?
The Export Image option in the Plots section doesn't always give the best results. Also, it lacks a default option of block code execution that other software, even if they use another programming language, have as core mechanic.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It wraps the R programming language in a well done interface, therefore any analytical project in my current workflow has as a step the data exploration availability provided by RStudio. Also, it has the capability of managing your data in files in a quick manner, making it possible for you to integrate the results of your analysis into other tools that work with flat files.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Get your hands on the R programming language capabilities and you will realize everything is considered in the RStudio interface. Most of the limitations of the software are dictated by the limitations of the programming language and not by RStudio itself. However, if you are looking for good data visualization options, you should consider another tool.

I enjoy that R Studio brings a whole new coding style, and is something that is used in both introductory courses, as well as actual companies.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike how R studio is quite senstitive when it comes to capital letters, spacing, etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is by far the easiest way to create all types of graphs, and much easier than Excel or Sheets.
