Best IDE for R Workflow

  • October 31, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
RStudio is an IDE packed with features for the R programmer. From a debugger to integrated documentation and easy package management. I particularly like how R Studio handles R Markdown files; it is pretty easy to create reproducible documents that are documented with Markdown. With RStudio I've become less dependent on google to search for documentation for R functionality. It is as easy as adding a ´?´ before the command name in R Studio console and the documentation for that function will display automatically.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like R Studio to have better collaborative features such as those found in databricks or IPython notebooks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- Data wrangling
- Exploratory Data Analysis using R graphics packages such as base, lattice and ggplot2
- Model development and Machine Learning
- Routine data exploration
- Integration with dashboard development tools such as Tableau for calculation assistance
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure you kleep it up to date as well as the base R package. Sometimes you m

RStudio pour le milieu académique et la santé

  • September 03, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

Qu'aimez-vous le plus à propos de the product?
J'aime comment la langue peut s'étendre à Python (similaire) et comment elle est facilement téléchargeable et peut partager des paquets.
Que n’aimez-vous pas à propos de the product?
Cependant, les paquets partagés ne sont pas toujours corrects à 100 %, il est donc nécessaire d'être très minutieux dans votre recherche d'un paquet/cran à utiliser.
Quels sont les problèmes que the product résout, et en quoi cela vous est-il bénéfique?
Simulation de données/visualisation de données
analytique de niveau supérieur

Expérience de recherche

  • August 20, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

Qu'aimez-vous le plus à propos de the product?
L'interface est pratique, avec une documentation accessible et une décomposition de l'environnement dans la même fenêtre que le script principal et la console.
Que n’aimez-vous pas à propos de the product?
Il peut faire un meilleur travail en marketing/en distinguant R par rapport aux autres langages d'analyse de données.
Quels sont les problèmes que the product résout, et en quoi cela vous est-il bénéfique?
Les packages open source m'ont permis de trouver des fonctions spécialisées pour des sous-domaines de niche dans le milieu académique. Le fait qu'ils soient relativement gratuits, sauf dans le cloud, est utile pour une équipe de recherche à ressources limitées !

Updated Coding platform for R

  • August 11, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
R Studio, the alternate version of the original "R" application, is definitely new and improved. Instead of having to look at separate windows and copy to run code, it is all in one place simultaneously, which makes every step just that much easier. I had started off using R, but once a professor of mine recommended I use Rstudio, I did not go back to R! Combining all the windows into one was a very necessary change.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes R studio can become a little funky when creating variables/adding new variables to an imported data set, which can be annoying. Also, I wish it was more optimized for excel when copying tables as well but that's just a personal minor issue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I do like how it shows your variables made on the right-hand side, which ensures me that my variable is indeed in the data set or has been appended to it correctly.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It can be a little overwhelming, as most coding environments are at first, but it is a great coding environment for programming in R

Unbeatable IDE for R

  • July 29, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the format where one panel is a scripting panel, the lower panel is an execution panel and the right panel is a help panel. I would not use R if it wasn’t for RStudio. The support of R markdown to quickly publish how to manuals about your script has also been indispensable but I have not gotten used to it yet, before this coming from bash scripting in text editors and prototyping using the terminal.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have not much to dislike about Rstudio. Sometimes when I run a script that is too memory intensive (because of a mistake in the code), I cannot stop the script even by pressing Esc multiple times. This is particularly for graphically intensive tasks like plotting a 20x20,000 heatmap. I would have to kill the Rstudio and lose the variables in my current environment. I am not aware of any collaborative features like Google Code has or something like Google Docs where multiple people can edit at the same time. I am also not sure about how to setup something like RStudio Server, which I've used before when available on the cluster to do more computationally intensive tasks although for those I think it's better to launch the R script in the terminal instead of RStudio.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Rstudio is a great way to use R to analyze genomics. The reason it is more accessible for genomic data is that there are so many packages written for that purpose and released to Bioconductor package repository, making it very easy to download and use packages out of the box. While Python is a great general purpose language and analyzing strings, I like R because it is what I learned in statistics class because of the inbuilt packages that make statistics in R and big data analysis (even loading a data frame or matrix) readily accessible. While R in itself may be slow in executing tasks compared to other languages, the packages available to R are often written in other languages like C++ so that execution is quick.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure you don't execute scripts that you don't have resources for. Before you execute, save local environmental variables so that if your script crashes you can reload the variables without recomputing everything. It can be saved in .Rdata.

Idéal pour développer des projets R

  • March 28, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

Qu'aimez-vous le plus à propos de the product?
Parfait si vous êtes intéressé par le développement en R. L'interface graphique est excellente et conviviale. Le logiciel est très facile à comprendre. Le logiciel vous donne des suggestions lors de l'écriture du code, ce qui le rend facile et vous aide également à suivre les erreurs. Vous pouvez également visualiser des graphiques dans cette application.
Que n’aimez-vous pas à propos de the product?
Le logiciel est parfois lent et a tendance à se figer lorsqu'il traite de grandes quantités de données. Vous devez supprimer l'historique des données et des graphiques pour faire de la place pour les nouveaux.
Quels sont les problèmes que the product résout, et en quoi cela vous est-il bénéfique?
Développement R.
Recommandations à d’autres personnes envisageant the product:
Assurez-vous d'avoir suffisamment de mémoire disponible pour cette application.

IDE perfecto para el lenguaje R

  • March 18, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I have been using this IDE to program in R for quite some time, about 3 years. The application is robust and works quickly, especially when executing commands through the console.

Visually is not the best I've seen but this can be solved by changing the theme in the IDE configuration, where we will find more than 20 styles available to choose from themes such as the sky theme or darker for programmers who prefer these types of colors for program.

One of the best features of this IDE in my opinion is its debugger since it allows a quick and easy way to locate the point where our program is failing, also showing valuable information about the error so that we can correct it.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like it to have different settings for the shortcut, because if you come to program in other programming languages or different IDE, you will find something lost because the keyboard shortcuts will not be the same, a different plugin or profile that would allow using the shortcut of Eclipse would be perfect.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With this IDE the programming speed is increased thanks to its auto completion since the suggestions it makes are very accurate, besides the templates that come with the files that are created are very useful for not writing the same code every time you create a new file.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This application is currently the best one to program in R since the debugger that implements executes the R language natively. In addition, the IDE allows you to modify its interface and change the sources for the one that best suits your programming preferences.

Bon mais pas le meilleur

  • March 06, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

Qu'aimez-vous le plus à propos de the product?
Ce que j'aime vraiment dans R Studio, c'est que vous pouvez voir votre code et le résultat sur un seul écran. Les fonctionnalités de base comme l'autocomplétion et les suggestions automatiques sont correctes.
Que n’aimez-vous pas à propos de the product?
C'est très lent, ce que je veux dire, c'est qu'il nécessite une configuration matérielle très performante pour faire fonctionner R Studio de manière fluide. Le traitement parallèle des fichiers n'est pas pris en charge.
Quels sont les problèmes que the product résout, et en quoi cela vous est-il bénéfique?
La plupart du temps, j'utilisais R Studio pour l'analyse de données (je suppose que chaque développeur R utilise ce logiciel pour le développement).
Recommandations à d’autres personnes envisageant the product:
C'est un bon logiciel, mais il nécessite quelques améliorations si vous utilisez une configuration matérielle basse. Je ne recommanderais pas RStudio, je vous suggérerais plutôt d'opter pour Microsoft R ou Alteryx Analytics.
