Data analysis and data visualization is the primary service available. The tool is interesting to learn and quickly apply to the data. They provide training also on how to use the tool. They also provide consultancy services as per needs of the client. The service is very quick and has good support.Incentivized
SAS Enterprise Guide is good at taking various datasets and giving analyst/user ability to do some transformations without substantial amounts of code. Once the data is inside SAS, the memory of it is very efficient. Using SAS for data analysis can be helpful. It will give good statistics for you, and it has a robust set of functions that aid analysis.Incentivized
Ability to load an AutoExec when opening a session ensuring everyone has the same global variables.Formatting with Ctrl I. If you're reading someone else's code and it's not formatted correctly you can highlight the area and hit Ctrl I.Incentivized
Very good tool, no need to improveIncentivized
Process time of data is a bit long. It depends on the size of your data and complexity of your project tree.There is not enough online free training videos.While working with the project tree sometimes the links between the modules are broken or the order for running the modules get mixed up. You should know your project tree by heart.Incentivized
On account of current user experience and the organization-wide acceptance.
It's not all bad, but I don't believe that an enterprise purchase of SAS is worth the expense considering the widely available set of tools in the data analytics space at the moment. In my company, it's a good tool because others use it. Otherwise, I wouldn't purchase a new set of it because it doesn't have some of the better analytical functions in it.Incentivized
Although I use SAS support for information on functions, these are SAS related and haven't really come across anything that is specifically for SAS EG.Incentivized
I've not worked hands-on with the implementation team, but there were no escalations barring a few hiccups in the deployment due to change in requirement & adoption to our company's remote servers.
I have not used other products because I am satisfied with Analytica's services. I can say it is very easy and the best tool for data analysis and data visualization. Their support service is also quick and good. They provide training and also consultancy services for their tools. Hence it is becoming more popular.Incentivized
Why I prefer SAS EG: Data processing speed is much faster than that R Studio. It can load any amount of data and any type of data like structured or unstructured or semi-structured. Its output delivery system by which we have the output in PDF file makes it very comfortable to use and share that file to clients very easily. Inbuilt functions are very powerful and plentiful. Facility of writing macros makes it far away from its competitors.
Positive (cost): SAS made a bundle that include unlimited usage of SAS/Enterprise Guide with a server solution. That by itself made the company save a lot of money by not having to pay individual licences anymore.Positive (insight): Data analysts in business units often need to crunch data and they don't have access to ETL tools to do it. Having access to SAS/EG gives them that power.Positive (time to market): Having the users develop components with SAS/EG allows for easier integration in a production environment (SAS batch job) as no code rework is required.
