  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
For people looking to apply statistics and play with data, its an easiest programming language with a convenient interface.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not all functionalities are best in Rstudio. Only good for data manipulation and statistical analysis. Some features like web-scraping, custom functionalities are still lacking compared to python.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating sales reports by integrating data from SQL server and Salesforce. Have also worked on building predictive models. Apart from modeling, It is very convenient for data manipulation and automation of reports.

Perfect IDE for programming and performing data analysis

  • February 02, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the fact that, unlike other consoles, Rstudio offers everything in a consolidated way. I no longer have to fidget around different tabs to find my variable environments. I have all of it available. Also, it allows you to check your data frames and filter it in a GUI format, so you no longer have to write custom codes if you just want to look at a few values.
What do you dislike about the product?
Whenever a plot is being made, the IDE shows you a version of the plot. However, the dimensions of the plot are not correct. So you see an incorrect version of the plot on R studio unless you zoom completely or save it somewhere else and then view it using a different app.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
R Studio is an IDE which allows you to perform data analytics. It is a perfect console that lets you view your results as soon as the code is written. One of the business problems I am solving using R studio is to cluster similar products together. Fortunately, R provides you with a lot of in-built packages for data analysis. Moreover, there are multiple advanced packages like CARET available for complex machine learning algorithms.

What do you like best about the product?
1. It helps in saving the script as and when you progress
2. it gives the ability to run any single line or multiple lines together which helps a lot in debugging
3. The variable environment which shows the value the variable holds which helps in understanding the code better
4. the packages window gives details about the packages and the functions available along with the
5. the ability to save export the plots at my ease is a really cool feature which helps me a lot when a huge is script is being executed. this way i dont have to scroll up to the line like i would have to do in R
What do you dislike about the product?
the only thing that i dislike is the amount of memory it take, but i believe that would depend on how large a dataset one would use for analysis
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps in running r scripts with ease as well as debugging the programs without much hassle. The output from these scripts are of high value and an asset to the organization
Recommendations to others considering the product:

Fantastic open source software with great community

  • January 30, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
RStudio is the premier IDE for R. I love that it is open source and that they hire great people to make the R ecosystem better. The interface itself is intuitive and easy to use, with an interactive window, a code window, and a window for figures and plots.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have had a few problems with RStudio freezing or closing when using it on Linux. It has the same problems as Jupyter where it can lead to bad programming practices since code can be run out of order and the environment can get into a state that is difficult to reproduce.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am an academic researcher and I use Rstudio for doing analysis of online communities.

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use, installing new packages and viewing console and all kinds of graphs/plots to visualize data.
What do you dislike about the product?
Difficult to manage many R files together and using the interface on small screens.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
R Studio is being used in Exploratory Data Analysis of Students that take admission at USC. Its ease of use is the best benefit of R Studio.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definately learn R programming and use this software for all kinds of manipulations.

My favorite framework

  • January 21, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the interface, usability and the simple package structure that doesn't require deep programming language.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not like the way how the errors are described. It appears to be very uninformative, the error messages are usually encrypted giving no clue where to look for a mistake.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
RStudio provides an excellent platform for data analytics and visualization, which is especially valuable when working with big data. I am working with patients sequencing data (metagenomics, metatranscriptomics), building models predicting metabolic processes within the gut microbiome.

R studio has made coding in R easier

  • January 18, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
An excellent R IDE for beginner and expert alike. A ton of useful features that makes using R extremely easy, such auto-completion, documentation browser, R Notebooks functionality, data viewer, debugging and build tools, GitHub integration, and more. Doesn't hurt that it looks good too, with the available themes. It makes managing all of my active data objects, visualizations and packages extremely easy. It is worth mentioning it is free.
What do you dislike about the product?
Can be a little slow and sometimes glitchy. For example, the data viewer often cannot hand large data samples. Will sometimes crash for no particular reason. The R Notebooks functionality, though still very useful, is currently buggy and missing obvious features - could be much better!
Furthermore, there are some features that are lacking compared to a customizable text editor such as Atom. Given the nature of the disk drives and as the data tends to be rewritten after a while in the spaces freed by the table of contents (TOC), it is mostly useful when the recovery happens almost immediately after the event, which limits the recovering power of real old data.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have done my bioinformatics project by R and it was so easy to write the code.
