Statistical Language Tool

  • April 03, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The community associated with the tool and language is very strong. Also the extensive work and updation of packages make it very easy to use and apply functionalities. Caret and dplyr are very versatile packages. If one learns to use ggplot 2 package, they can even create interactive dashboards like one from tableau.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is not much to dislike about the language but the constant and frequent updates in few packages makes one re-learn the concepts related to it again and again.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
RStudio was mostly used for data wrangling. This data cleaning part took the maximum part of processing the whole data. Once the concepts were learned it was easy to use and modify the data for further work on it. Statistical knowledge coupled with the knowledge of this tool can work wonders. One can build regression models and do predictive analysis. There are many applications towards improving and understanding the data for the further applications.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is difficult to learn, but there is a lot of material available online to woke through it. I learned through data camp, ISLR and participated in online kagggle competitions. It takes time but once crossed the threshold its a cake walk then on.

Flexibility with a learning curve

  • April 02, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
RStudio is massively capable and flexible, and there is a large online community of R users that are very helpful. Finally, the software is free.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only negatives, which really aren't a big deal, are that learning the coding language for R takes some time (like any other language), and that sometimes when you are dealing with large data sets and complicated models, the program can get bogged down and be slow. This last issue is really more of a computer issue, but the software contributes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We do all of our analyses and data wrangling in RStudio. In addition, RStudio has a multitude of options for data visualization and reporting/presenting data.

Open source, stable GUI for R with enterprise licensing as option

  • April 01, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
- Easy to navigate
- Fantastic to install/uninstall packages
- Great sense of customisation
- Stable with rare crash
- Fast in-memory engine
- Open source
- Free license with option to go pro
What do you dislike about the product?
- Slow when sample size is high
- Needs a bit of redesign to get closer to something like Zeppelin or Jupyter. This IDE style is a bit of old school.
- It does not have cool visualisation solution. Everything must be coded.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
R code development, description analysis, data cleansing, feature engineering, modelling
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This IDE is great to start with R. However, it keeps data in memory so its performance is highly dependent of the volume of RAM you have on your machine. It can easily crash when data is large.

This is dedicated to R as name suggests with lots of features. If you are in enterprise environment, you can even deploy your model on RStudio Server where you can schedule your task on a certain plan. Surly you have to pay for enterprise a very reasonable fee (I think it is $1000).

What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing yet that I have discovered dealing with R
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm working on building statitical models.

Powerful for Data

  • March 28, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that a lot of the packages are open source. Plenty of resources for reference and help. You can google pretty much any question and you will find many answers. It also makes beautiful graphs fit for publication.
What do you dislike about the product?
The way the working directory has to be set can be confusing at first. The syntax is a learning curve. But once you realize that there are several different ways to write the code and that you can google anything it is quite powerful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Not for business but for school. Analysis of genetic sequences. Great for publication type graphs and data.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There are several packages and ways to complete a task. Installation of packages can take a while.


    Computer Software

A tool for every Data Scientist

  • March 28, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Simple to code and easy to learn. Any computer enthusiastic can learn.
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI is could be better. More packages/APIs should be included out of box.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it for solving prediction problems. While I am estimating/evaluating a parameter it is helpful.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The user guide of R can help anyone to achieve their need.
