Reviews from Real Users
SAS Enterprise Guide is a statistical analysis tool that stands out among its competitors for a number of reasons. Two major ones are the solution’s intuitive nature and the suite of functionalities that it offers. SAS Enterprise Guide makes it easy for users who lack a background in statistical analysis to create workflows. The solution enables users to customize and configure queries without requiring them to have a background in coding. SAS Enterprise Guide has a wide variety of functionalities. It is highly flexible and gives users the ability to complete many different tasks.
The head of analytics at a communications services provider writes, “I think that the ease of use is the most valuable feature. I know SQL. I even taught SQL. But new people who come to the tool without in-depth knowledge of SQL or people who do not have an analytics background can still use the tool. It is very easy for these new users to climb the learning curve using SAS Enterprise Guide because of the way it was created with ease-of-use in mind. It is well-oriented to the business user. In no time new users are able to create workflows. Obviously, it is best if they have some basic knowledge of how things work in doing analysis — like the concept of joins, data profiling, and maybe some other SQL-related concepts. But the key here is they do not need to know how it is coded or the exact commands. All the features are available within Enterprise Guide through a drag-and-drop interface so queries can be built without extensive knowledge of how that works behind the scenes. The ease-of-use makes the tool valuable even for someone who is near the beginner level.”
Monica B., an SAS Application Architect at a computer software company, writes, “It has a lot of functionalities. We can build ETL processes. There are clients who are using SAS Enterprise Guide to build ETL processes. They have a SAS-based program that is scheduled to run at a certain frequency to produce some reports for the business. It is a very useful tool for ETL unit tests and functional tests. You can also do data science projects in SAS Enterprise Guide by using different statistics. During my MBA, we used SAS Enterprise Guide for our statistics course.”
