Overall Satisfaction with RStudio

I am the primary statistician on my team and I use RStudio almost exclusively to perform the product efficacy analyses. I use RStudio to automate many of our data cleanup processes and also run dynamic analyses to answer our research questions.

Pros

  • Automate processes
  • Statistical Analyses
  • Portable Code
  • A very good IDE for R programming

Cons

  • Can be intimidating to non-programmers
  • I wish I could copy data to the clipboard easier
  • I never have a big enough screen to see all of the data I want to see
  • Very positive impact on report automation
  • Very positive impact on reproduceable code
  • Very positive impact on sharing code with others. The only limit has been colleagues' experience and competence.
RStudio is free and so that is the main reason that I use it. I like that it is open source and so there are lots of support on the internet. I tried SAS JMP and Python in a text editor but RStudio was better than either of those options for cost and code flexibility respectively.

Do you think Posit delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Posit's feature set?

Yes

Did Posit live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Posit go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Posit again?

Yes

I really like that RStudio has the ability to run code line by line. That is crucial in my work as I am constantly modifying and testing little things that would not be practical/desired to run the whole code.
