What do you like best about the product?
Layout in some sense is similar to matlab, so if you are familiar with it then it's easy to navigate. R notebook is really useful and especially ability to chunk your code and run them separately, code autocomplete suggestion and variable highlights makes it easy write scripts
What do you dislike about the product?
Takes a while to get used to the interface. Navigation between panels is a bit poor, and sometimes it crashes when doing heavy computations. Poor resolution on Mac computers (used on both iMac and macbook pro)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mostly bioinformatics research, Rstudio is more intuitive than using in terminal. Benefits: code chunking and seeing plots straight on in the window.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use R markdown and code chunking

R Studio

  • December 14, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that R Studio is a bit more of a GUI than base R. It makes the user experience a little better. I also find the help tools to be really useful in learning how to run analyses that I'm unfamiliar with.
What do you dislike about the product?
Like other aspects of R, there is a learning curve.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using RStudio for analysis of ecological datasets. Repeatability is very important for many analyses.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would use this over the traditional and clunkier version of R, but you'll still need to know how to code in the R programming language.
