Our primary use case for Posit involves end-to-end data processing. We start by pulling data from various sources like CSV, Excel, Snowflake, and Databricks. We clean the data, analyze it, and visualize it using tools like ggplot, Shiny dashboards, or R markdown documents. We also use Posit for building models and sharing findings for better insight within the team.

Best tool for the Data analysis, Visualization
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing about the Posit is the Multilanguage support and the Enterprise Security and the how easily some one can use and implement that
What do you dislike about the product?
The con about the Posit is the learning curve. New users will face a very steep curve in learning that. It is also a resource-intensive technique that demands significance computational power to perform well. last thing is that it's user interface which can be a bit improved
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The mananaging data easily and get the optimum workflow is the most important thing in that which works finely with that
Enhancing collaboration through seamless integration and versatile application development
What is our primary use case?
How has it helped my organization?
Posit has significantly improved our ability to collaborate. We can use it to share results and findings instantly within the team and develop Shiny applications for external review. This has led to quicker project iterations and enhanced internal communication and collaboration.
What is most valuable?
I have found Posit’s integration with R, such as the autocomplete feature and the help panel, to be invaluable. These features allow a smooth user experience and eliminate the need to switch between programs for assistance. Additionally, the platform’s ability to build and test Shiny applications is highly beneficial.
What needs improvement?
I would like to see improvements in SSH capabilities. The potential to use local environments on powerful cloud resources through SSH, as seen in other tools like Visual Studio Code, would enhance Posit’s usability for hybrid environments.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Posit for about ten years, including both the free RStudio desktop version and the enterprise version.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Posit is generally very stable. It becomes unresponsive only with excessively large datasets or complex computations when our computing resources fall short. Otherwise, it provides a reliable working environment.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The scalability is excellent. Using AWS SageMaker, we can easily expand from simple setups to more powerful configurations with multiple GPUs and extensive memory resources. This flexibility accommodates various project requirements.
How are customer service and support?
The customer service is responsive, with ticket responses typically within 24 hours on business days. We also have an account executive for direct communication, which is very beneficial, although their availability is limited to standard business hours.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
At a previous company, we used different software. It did not meet our needs. As an R user, RStudio naturally complements my workflow, making Posit a suitable choice.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup of the desktop version of Posit is straightforward and easy. However, the cloud setup for Posit Workbench was handled by the technical team.
What about the implementation team?
Our technical team handled the setup of Posit Workbench on the cloud and described it as straightforward.
What was our ROI?
One of our significant projects using Posit helped business partners prioritize tasks more effectively, saving the company approximately $3 million. This illustrates substantial organizational value and ROI.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
Currently, the cost of Posit is reasonable and affordable, although there is an anticipated increase in pricing.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
Other analytic software solutions were not evaluated extensively, as our team primarily consists of R users, making Posit a logical choice.
What other advice do I have?
I would recommend new users to engage with Posit's sales and support teams, as they provide excellent assistance and insights into the product. Posit offers reasonably priced solutions compared to competitors, making it an advantageous choice for data science teams.
I'd rate the solution nine out of ten.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
Hybrid Cloud
Allows users to host different models in one place
What is our primary use case?
We use Posit to deploy applications developed in R and Python. Our team creates applications and models, which they then host on GitHub. We assist them in deploying these models and provide the necessary access and support.
What is most valuable?
The most valuable feature of Posit is that it allows users to host different models in one place, making it easy to share with colleagues and teammates.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been working with the product for two to three years.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
We can easily add users by providing AD group access and assigning different access levels—publisher, administrator, or viewer—based on their needs. My company has two instances: production and development. We have around 140 users for production, while for development, we have 180.
How are customer service and support?
I regularly connect with support whenever there are any issues. However, there is a time lag due to time zone differences.
How was the initial setup?
If you're setting up Posit for the first time, it's quite easy. They provide a detailed admin guide with step-by-step instructions, making the deployment process straightforward.

Best R IDE
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing is, it's Open Source and it has so many features packed in it. We can also save our workspace which helps a lot. It has a separate screen/tab for variable view, plot, help, workspace, directory console etc which helps to see so many things at once and is very helpful. It has many GUI tools also which are very helpful when doing some work directly on the console. Also, its complete feature is good.
What do you dislike about the product?
Its GUI can be made a little better, Dark mode can be introduced too. Its GUI was a little hard in the begining, so it's not new user-friendly we have to invest time to understand it. Also maybe a package manager would be good addition which is common in many IDEs now. Also, there should be an option to save console commands till now.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am analyzing data in my organization using R studio and also making models on it to predict the other data. I also used it when I was learning machine learning. It is a great tool.
Best software for data analysis and data visualization with R
What do you like best about the product?
R studio is free open-source software and easy to install. It consists of very big libraries that are very useful for data analysis purposes. It provides many features such as we can save our variables in the workspace for a long time, importing variables, can execute particular lines of code without executing the whole program. It requires fewer resources and can run in old and slow hardware also.
It runs big data files in very short time.
It runs big data files in very short time.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is just a user interface it can't work without R software so we need to install R separately, it would be so good if it comes with R also. R studio interface is not very simple for beginners it requires practice. Sometimes it crashes due to not proper execution between R and R studio. It takes time to open.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have done some courses which require R for machine learning for that I have used R studio. I have made some projects which require data analysis and data visualization with R.It takes very less time compared to other data analysis tools to execute big data files.
