Clean big-data projects with RStudio

  • June 28, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
RStudio is an open source software, which is great because it counts with tons of documentation and tutorials that can be found online. RStudio somehow makes a complex language like R to be simple, as it handles the right statistical data for developers. Among its greatest tools is the full text editor, that helps to manipulate data quickly, which is one of the most time-consuming tasks for any automation.
What do you dislike about the product?
R is a very complex language that you will need to take some time to learn in order to properly use RStudio. I feel this tool still feels a bit limited, as all the add-ons and environments don’t seem to provide the desired customization. The package finder is one of the most confusing tools to use. If they could make it more intuitive, it would really help. Also, I have run into some bugs which are very difficult to debug.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The IT department of my organization implemented RStudio with the objective to clean big-data projects while working in a private consulting setting. After using it for a couple of years, I’d say RStudio simplified the process of creating arrays, combining data and importing multiple data sets, making it very easy to understand due to the visual layout of the program. The transition from users that are not familiar with the R language is great, as RStudio has each item visually identifiable. It comes with some great features, like the added dictionary feature built into the interface, that has come to be very useful for us.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
RStudio is a great option for companies looking for a statistical software, data analysis and data visualization. The results you’ll get from RStudio could be very important in making business decisions. Also, if you need to extract valuable metadata from various type of documents, RStudio could be helpful to develop scripts in R.


    Research

Best Data Science tool

  • June 25, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The cross-disciplinary tool between data, geospatial information, and web mapping
What do you dislike about the product?
Fewer tutorials for beginners to learn and get familiar with the product. Setting a 10-short-video startup to get the layman person to be familiar with the software is key as big data is becoming an important component in the private sector
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Big Data analysis looking at health and economic characteristics in geographies of the US Midwest
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Start by solving a sample case from an online forum to understand how to talk to the tool

Much-improved IDE with room to improve further

  • April 30, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the RStudio IDE because it provides a helpful interface for data wrangling, data visualization, and data analysis purposes. Especially helpful are the alert features for typos and missed commas or parentheses as well as a number of hover-and-click options for many data management work.
What do you dislike about the product?
So far, my most disliked feature of the IDE is the very slow data viewer. While it's not great practice to rely on viewing the data frame in its entirety, it still helps at times to do so and the viewer can use a speed boost since there tends to be a lag in loading data frame items even for relatively small data frames.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data cleaning, data analysis, data visualization
Recommendations to others considering the product:
RStudio is definitely a must and is likely the industry standard for working with R.

Great for developing R projects

  • March 28, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

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

Good but not the best

  • March 06, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

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
