I am currently employed as a statistician at a private pharmaceutical company, where I work in the statistical field. My responsibilities align closely with the job description of a Biostatistician, and I have accumulated five years of experience in this role. SAS Viya has become an essential tool in my daily work. Previously, we relied on SAS Enterprise Guide, but our focus has now shifted significantly to SAS Viya. I find this software straightforward to use and easy to understand. It has also proven to be a valuable resource for saving time. Overall, this summarizes my experience with SAS Viya. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have been a SAS programmer for a number of years and I find SAS Viya a major step forward in programming. It has many help features, enables you to quickly build code that works first time. A great boon to productivity. The UI is very intuitive even for a non SAS programmer. It is very easy to obtain snippets of code to insert into your program. Performance of SAS Viya is great, so much better than SAS EG. The addition of an AI helper has made SAS Viay even more useful. When installing SAS Viya SAS institute were always on hand to assist and answer any questions. Great support as usual. SAS Viya pricing is on a par with other similar offerings however Viya provide so much more for your money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that SAS Viya integrates advanced analytics and AI across a unified platform, allowing users to build statistical models, run predictive analysis, and automate workflows all within a single environment. I appreciate its ability to process massive datasets efficiently in the cloud environment, which enables faster analysis. I enjoy the multi-language support as I can use Python and R programming all in the same environment, thanks to the seamless integration and unified data access it offers. Additionally, I find performance and memory processing to be very effective. The cloud-based environment also makes it easy to access. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Licensing can be confusing, with different modules (analytics, data management, AI/ML) having separate costs.

Subscription pricing may require negotiation, unlike simpler cloud-native platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like the SAS Viya interface. It is a platform that brings everything together in one place, and I find it quite modern. This allows me to perform tasks in a more interesting and faster way compared to other similar applications, like SAP. Additionally, it is a widely used tool globally, by the United States government and Fortune 500 companies, which inspires confidence in me and opens doors in the world of data analytics. I learned to use it in a week, which I consider a great achievement, as it doesn't take much time to master it. I believe this added value is a great attraction. Using SAS Viya keeps me informed and updated in data science and using the most advanced tools of the modern world. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I didn't like the initial setup process of SAS Viya because you have to navigate between different SaaS pages, which can be confusing since they all look alike. It's hard to know if you're in the right place without guidance from someone at SaaS, which implies a lack of clarity in user guidance. Additionally, the user interface (UI) and user experience (UX) design do not have a well-established flow, making it difficult to learn and memorize all the available tools. It would be beneficial to improve segmentation and implement a flow methodology to facilitate navigation for both beginners and experienced users. Finally, although it is a useful tool, the amount of information and tools in one place requires a significant effort to learn and memorize its use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
