"SAS Visual Analytics Review"
5/5
What do you like best about SAS Visual Analytics?

I loved SAS Visual Analytics for its ease of use and access to a wide variety of training materials in the field of visual analytics. I first started using the training materials in the SAS Visual Analytics program because I had no previous experience in this field. I gained a very detailed knowledge in a short time thanks to the careful preparation of the training materials, the full content of the curriculum, the fact that the curriculum is specially designed for beginners, it is easy to understand and contains many examples. In addition, when I want to get support about products, being able to contact the responsible people in a very short time has helped me a lot in using SASA Visual Analytics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SAS Visual Analytics?

SAS Visual Analytics is a very rich product that is easy to use and contains many different training materials. In addition, it has made me very happy in many ways, thanks to its features that enable people who are new to this field to learn easily, and that it has a simple and useful interface. I just want to give feedback on the price of the product. The reason for this is not that the product is very expensive, but that it is too much for users due to exchange rate differences in other countries. Because the country I live in (Turkey) has a less valuable currency against the dollar and although the price of the product is the same, the product becomes more expensive for us as the Dollar/TL ratio increases day by day. Therefore, if the currencies of other countries are taken into account while pricing the product, much more positive results can be obtained and the products can be accessed by more people.

"Very useful and a great way to visualize your data"
5/5
What do you like best about SAS Visual Analytics?

The types of graphs and the interactivity of the visuals are very useful when presenting your data to others. It is especially useful if you're able to provide an interactive link for others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SAS Visual Analytics?

The main downsides are that it does have a bit of a learning curve. Once you learn how to use the program and understand the tools that are in SAS visual analytics, then the world is your oyster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very user friendly and intuitive"
4/5
What do you like best about SAS Visual Analytics?

You can start with SAS VA (Viya) without having any coding experience (all features are based on drag & drop). You can learn basics even without training if you are a "computer person" with enough curiosity. Very flexible tool, it depends on users' smartness and fantasy how well it will be used. I do very much like the possibilities of calculated measures especially when working with text and dates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SAS Visual Analytics?

Some of the functions could be improved (ex. multiple select in control object "buttons" or adding "list" as report control object, would be great to see where "Common filters" are used before deleting/changing them as it is with regular categories/measures etc.). The "Create custom graph" feature should contain more graphical possibilities (colors etc.). It is also annoying that it is not possible to change the data source of a single object (crosstab/list table/graph) - only the entire data source could be replaced which changes the data source in all objects' it was used. Creating joined data sources by the user makes it difficult to operate in the report if data sets are heavy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent Visualization Tool"
5/5
What do you like best about SAS Visual Analytics?

Researches show SAS is the most popular Data Analytics tool in the market. You can apply data visualization modeling directly to your data. SAS provides Business Solutions, Data Access and Management, Visualization, Reporting and graphics, and you can provide tier access to the reporting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SAS Visual Analytics?

You can not do anything without uploading data. It would be great if you could work on locally stored data on your station instead of uploading it to the application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
