We primarily use SAS Base as our analytical tool and I found with some basic SQL knowledge that the tool was very easy to learn. The documentation online is extremely useful.

The learning curve is very very steep, in college an entire class was just about SAS programming. Though the syntax is close to most programming languages, it is not super intuitive, the sheer number of macros and functions is very overwhelming. The other thing is the price, extremely over-priced, making it almost inaccessible to certain businesses or very hard to justify the cost when statistical software like R is completely free.
