Simple, powerful, flexible data management.

I'm currently using the software to learn some data science fundamentals.

Yes, the SQL environment is easy to use. I especially like the line by line reports describing if the code could or could not be executed. It makes it easy to locate and fix mistakes. The ability to generate a table from so little code is kind of amazing. Anyone who has had to manually enter information into a spreadsheet should find it a revelation.

I've barely gotten to use Aspara.

I've only used the free lite plan. I could certainly see how it would be useful for backups and the like. You can organize your data into different fee tiers. It's obvious how this could translate to cost savings, and simply as a matter of principle, I like that I can choose to pay only for services that I need.
