Overall Satisfaction with Shiny

We use Shiny to collate data from disparate sources, transform and generate advanced analysis served through Shiny dashboards and R Markdown documents. R is one of two standards within our organisation's field, enabling us to learn and share within a wide community of interest. Additionally the continued support and development of packages enables us to utilise the latest improvements right now.
  • Data transformation.
  • Data visualisation.
  • Repeatable analytical pipelines.
  • Learning for beginners.
  • Reputation.
  • Packages available.
  • Time saved on repetitive analysis being automated.
  • Advanced analysis highlighting opportunities for the organisation to realise.
Whilst dashboarding may be comparable with some of the other products we evaluated. Nothing compared to the analytical capabilities on offer with Shiny. An added advantage was that we had colleagues knowledgeable in R which meant bringing in Shiny and getting to grips with it was a lot more seamless and welcomed by the end users.

Shiny is well suited where an organisation is looking to empower their analysts to minimise time spent on repetitive analysis by deploying repeatable analytical pipelines, but also looking for them to add greater value to the organisation by utilising more advanced analytical techniques. Ideally it is well suited where IT are on board and supportive of some of the more advanced features such as deploying R Shiny dashboards.
