"SAS Analytics is versatile"

4/5

What do you like best about SAS Enterprise Miner?

SAS Analytics is very a very useful tool for Business Analytics, for both descriptive and predictive purposes. I have taken training in this, and used it for research extensively. It offers much flexibility in adjusting parameters and trying to different models, with the option of performing easy model comparisons in order to choose the best or most optimal one for a particular application. I definitely recommend it for research as well as teaching purposes at higher educational institutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SAS Enterprise Miner?

Two things that I dislike about SAS are: (1) The learning curve is higher than other statistical and analytical software like SPSS or R. It is hence a little difficult to use it in courses for undergraduate students unless they have some prior knowledge. (2) The prices are high also, especially when you compare with R/RStudio (free). Sometimes the installation is also a little tricky and does not work on Mac (from my past experience, not sure if that has changed). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering SAS Enterprise Miner:

Definitely a tool to analyze large and complex datasets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SAS Enterprise Miner solving and how is that benefiting you?

I have seen benefits of SAS Analytics for both teaching and research. I am in the higher education industry, so it serves both the main purposes quite well. I have taught courses on analytics using SAS as well as conducted research in the area using the software Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
