What do you like best?

- Ease of use, the GUI is very intuitive and for first-time users very logical

- Efficient on low-spec computers, no need for latest gen specs. I still use my 2014 Macbook without any issues

- Statistical and modeling tools are quite extensive, from time series to regressions

- Support is very good, i never ran into issues in communication

- Visualisation is very good, for creating insights and see the most important key elements for your organisation based on the required needs

What do you dislike?

- Not much debugging support compared to different statistical tools, e.g. Matlab R Stata. I tried few of them

- Cannot be ran in the cloud, i.e. did not find a way into running it on my local server and access it from any HPC

- Relatively basic and flat interface, and no particular black mode to work on Windows 10. Not so much of an issue but user interface is indeed ever-evolving

- Can be pricy compared to the other solutions, but it's worth comparing what fit your needs.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

Well worth to compare if fit your needs. Its user friendliness makes it a great tool
