Useful free software
What do you like best about the product?
I like that everything is customizable. Very useful for plotting data, making graphs and doing calculations for data analysis.
What do you dislike about the product?
Steep learning curve to get familiar with the software and use all of the functionalities. However, there are online tutorials available, as well as classes at most major universities.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am doing calculations e.g. statistics for data analysis, and making figures for publications towards my doctoral degree.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Very useful tool once the basics are down for doing statistics and creating aesthetically professional plots / graphs / figures.

R studio review
What do you like best about the product?
Rstudio is an open source and freely available. It is very simple to install on any platform. It has a really good interface that allows us to install the packages that we need for analysis.
What do you dislike about the product?
The graphics can get better. Also R consumes lot of memory when you are dealing with super large datasets or matrices and can get slow.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use R for most of my research. RStudio provides a nice interface to R and it is easy to see plots on the same window while working on a problem.
R Studio Review
What do you like best about the product?
I like the customizability of R Studio. It's easy to set up, configure, and start working. I also like that R studio is ubiquitous with R, unlike many other languages that have various IDEs.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm not crazy about the way RStudio arranges files and projects in the UI but it's a minor complaint at best.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use R to handle more complex data problems than I can handle in excel or SQL. I often use the RPostgreSQL package to pull data from Redshift and then manipulate in R.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a great tool and worth your time to try out.
Data Analysis with R programming
What do you like best about the product?
RStudio makes R easier to use. It includes a code editor, debugging & visualization tools.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing particular that I do not like about RStudio.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Used for research purposes only
Very solid wrapper for the industry statistics standard
What do you like best about the product?
The RStudio packs a number of important features that a standard R does not have. These include the ability to use pull-down menus to install packages, plot charts, import data, and execute blocks of the code. RStudio also offers a very nice editor for coding.
What do you dislike about the product?
Despite all advantages, RStudio still stands far from commercial packages like STATA or EVIEWS in terms of its user-friendliness. Having built-in STATA-like abilities to perform regular statistics tasks, like OLS, GMM, time series tools, etc. using pull-down-menus, and duplicated by a code would be immensely helpful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Economics and Financial analysis of large data. R is very helpful because it is free, massively parallelizable, and has many useful tools other packages do not have.
Great for pretty plots, unclear when you have errors
What do you like best about the product?
I usually use SAS for statistical analysis, but R by far as the most aesthetically pleasing in terms of plots and graphs. The forums online to help are also great
What do you dislike about the product?
If you have an error in the log, the errors are often difficult to decipher. I spend more time figuring out errors than I do actually coding.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Presenting graphics in a clear way
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Read online resources for help
This is a powerful math language, put into a more user friendly UI.
What do you like best about the product?
I like the small, yet effective changes they put in which are different from the base R UI.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike some of the features of R in general.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have not run into any problems with it, and have benefitted from the better UI.
