Incredible tool for coding in R
What do you like best about the product?
The interface is perfect to code in R. It provides one with a great GUI, for coding, and lets you run through reams of data quickly. Further, using the Knitr package one can make pdf copies of the output, and also make html copies of the code.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that unlike lets say visual studio, the interface does not give real time feedback with issues with the code.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using the tool to do RFM analysis for pushing out digital marketing communication to potential clients. The RFM analysis helps in providing one with a response rate which might be better than the response rate one could earn by pushing out digital communication to everyone.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I love the product for its ease of use and real time feedback and response to codes. If you really want to use an R product to code, you should consider R Studio for its interface.
Editor for unexperienced R users
What do you like best about the product?
Very user friendly and comparable to simpler coding languages, free software.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have struggled in the past with using different packages, there is some difficulty in uploading them
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
RStudio provides an easy to use environment for coding, the ability to edit coding allows for much better and more complex analysis.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You will need a basic understanding of linear models and other statistical techniques, I would suggest Linear Models with R by Faraway.
Great interface for R users
What do you like best about the product?
Years ago I used an interface called R Commander. That kept crashing and had to just use the Gui. Now R has a proper interface outside of just the Gui that integrates everything in one place so you can see exactly what you are working on. Biggest plus... It doesn't crash!
What do you dislike about the product?
There isn't anything I don't like about it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I regularly analyze big data to provide insights to our executive leadership so they know what directions they should take. Having R Studio allows me to store my code and adapt it as needed when particular analyses need to be run again. Plus I can chunk segments of code and run only those parts that I need. In addition, R Studio has a bunch of innovative packages that lets me create dashboards and documents with R script built into it. when it comes time to publish the work, there is not cut and paste. It is all within housed within a single file.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The desktop product is free. There is loads of support in the community. Plus, R Studio also offers server and enterprise solutions to those that need it (pending pricing).
RStudio is like my best friend
What do you like best about the product?
RStudio is amazing. I use it every single dang day at work and at home and for everything related to R. I even use it when I'm coding in Python sometimes because the functionality is so spot on.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is very little that I dislike about RStudio. It's a great tool and it is amazing that it is free. There are few other options when it comes to coding in R. I really love how running commands automatically makes the cursor skip to the next line.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I mostly use RStudio for data manipulation, data analysis, and other types of data processing. That includes social network analysis and machine learning algorithm model building and more.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You can use it with more languages than just R!!
Great IDE
What do you like best about the product?
I like the flexibility that R studio provides. The many format options for the final output code and its compatibility with both, mac and windows.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much to dislike about R studio. One of its disadvantages, which is in a sense an advantage, is its flexibility. It allows the user to run small chunks of code at a time making it challenging sometimes to keep track of where the code is.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Statistical analysis for different research questions. Also, and advantage is Rnotebook which makes sharing code easy
Great for developing R projects
What do you like best about the product?
Perfect if you are into R development. GUI is great and user-friendly. The software is very easy to understand. The software gives you suggestions when writing the code which makes it easy and also helps you to track errors. You also can view graphs in this application.
What do you dislike about the product?
The software is sometimes slow and tends to freeze when handling large data. You need to remove the past history of data and graphs in order to make space for new ones.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
R development.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure you have enough memory available for this application
R studio is great
What do you like best about the product?
It is easy to use, lots of good documentation
What do you dislike about the product?
packages are sometimes not all loaded properly
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Streamlining data analysis
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Look at all available packages, learn ggplot
RStudio review
What do you like best about the product?
Its a nice editor, simple and light weight.
What do you dislike about the product?
You cannot do anything fancy in this editor. Other editors like Visual Studio or Emacs are way more better. Above all this editor is only used for R Language.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have done some data analysis.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is probably best editor for R language, but for other languages there are way more better editors than this.
Good but not the best
What do you like best about the product?
What I really like about the R Studio is that you see your code and the output on the single screen. Basic features like autocomplete, auto-suggestions are okay.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is very slow, what I mean is it require very good hardware configuration to run R Studio smoothly. Parallel file processing is not supported.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Most of the time I used R Studio for data analysis (I guess every R developer uses this software for development)
Recommendations to others considering the product:
its a good software but need bit improvements if you are using low hardware configuration I would not recommend RStudio rather I would suggest you to go with Microsoft R or alteryx analytics
A Data Scientist's best Friend- R Studio !
What do you like best about the product?
The IDE is one of the best among all the available tools. It uses R language and helps to create large projects easily. The visualization features are also excellent. Also it's open source software and is available free of cost.
What do you dislike about the product?
It consumes a lot your system memory and will be an issue if you want to multitask with many other applications
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For predictive analysis, statistical and data mining problems and related tasks
Recommendations to others considering the product:
best tool for Data Science if you're using R language and it's completely free of cost
