"Ease of Use and Powerful Display"

4/5

What do you like best about SAS Visual Analytics?

I really like the ease of use of SAS Visual Analytics and the variety of elements it offers. The interface is intuitive and allows for the rapid construction of effective visualizations by combining charts, filters, and interactive components. I find it particularly easy to create aesthetically pleasing reports in a very short time, even integrating advanced analysis features, which allows for obtaining significant insights without having to resort to complex developments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SAS Visual Analytics?

I don't like the fact that filters in SAS Visual Analytics cannot easily communicate between different pages. I would like a more integrated management, so that filters applied on one page can be maintained or reused on others, allowing for a quicker transition from a general view to a more detailed analysis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SAS Visual Analytics solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use it to create front-end dashboards and reports, facilitating the visualization of the client's company data and monthly results through intuitive and easily accessible filters. The tool allows for the creation of clear and well-structured reports quickly, also integrating advanced data analysis features that make information exploration more effective and support reporting activities.
