RStudio the easier way to use R

  • December 26, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that this is free and an easier user interface to use R
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that it still requires a longer learning curve than some programs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Statistical analysis
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's easier to use than just R if you have to use R. The great thing about this is it's a free option for software for statistical analysis and R studio helps identify errors in syntax, making R easier to use, but you have to know which package you need to use and that can be tricky. Fortunately the online support for R and rstudio is pretty big and information is pretty easy to find.

  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the compact and simple design and the fact that it reminds me of other scientific software that I used in the past (e.g. Matlab).
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike the fact that user interface options are not available (e.g. skins).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am a novice user of RStudio. I have used it mainly to familiarize myself with R in Windows 7 and Ubuntu environments.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
De facto standard for R language.

Use it regularly for my analytics needs

  • December 22, 2017

What do you like best about the product?
R-Studio provides users with a complete data recovery software with undelete capabilities. Initially developed for data recovery experts, data specialists, IT professionals, and system administrators, R-Studio Data Recovery software is clearly built for advanced and experienced computer users. The software may be a bit confusing for the less experienced users but it also comes with a step by step wizard to help simplify the learning and implementation process.
What do you dislike about the product?
1. Hard to change the size of the windows automatically. E.g. When I use SAS I have the keys set up so that one key runs the analysis, goes to the log window and zooms it to the full screen. AFAIK, in RStudio you have to use the mouse to do this.

2. Use of projects is kind of complex.

3. Some key combinations that are nearly universally used for one thing are used for something else in RStudio e.g. ctrl+R doesn't open a find and replace, it adds a line
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Machine learning, predictive analytics

A complete game changer

  • December 21, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
RStudio has been a complete game changer for me at work. Not only does it provide a slick interface for utilizing the R programming language, it makes implementing new packages and combining multiple programming languages simple and efficient. The Help tab save a great deal of time that would otherwise be spent on Google. The Plots tab makes exporting plots quick and versatile. Personally, I could go on for a long time on how great this product is. Shout out to the Monokai theme; it makes coding a dream.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some issue with saving plots and their size and scale. I can program a plot to have a specific scale, but open it in the Plots tab differently and the saved file changes. Especially when I put multiple plots onto the same image there are scale issues. I have spent more time than I would like to admit adjusting scales.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I complete probably 85%-90% of my work with RStudio. We run off an IBM AS400 server and I constantly pull and manipulate data through an ODBC connection using SQL queries and then dump the data into Excel. Data wrangling that would take literal days in Excel take mere seconds once a program is written. We recently updated our accounting software and we had to verify that our data transferred correctly. The accountants would have had to check hundreds of thousands of lines of data manually over the course of days (in at least 3 different stages), but I was able to complete the whole process in a few hours (coding, formatting, and running scripts combined). Highly powerful.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Check out the documentation and Stack Overflow with questions. This GUI is highly powerful and worth the time to acclimate to. I would also recommend the theme "Monokai," which is a dark theme. It makes the coding softer on the eyes.

Needs some programming knowledge but worth it

  • December 21, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
R is really good in terms of working with complex graphs. Packages like igraph and sna are great for working with social networks data and are fairly easy to use. Lots of packages are developed by users for specific purposes not already provided by RStudio and that are generally useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
Often difficult to work with, needs decent programming skills. Programs developed by users often have bugs
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
social network analysis, regression analysis, data visualization
