“Detailed Technical Support and Reliable Performance”
SAS really is amazingly supportive and helpful. Over the years, I have had numerous, in-depth exchanges with technical staff looking into all sorts of solutions to unique problems with me. I am amazed at the level of detail and communication SAS allows. While many companies would just respond with boilerplate like "It doesn't do that, and we're not looking to implement that at this time." SAS actually dives into the problem, gives workarounds, hotfixes, better alternatives, and, if needed, scheduling the item for future development.

“Error Screen Clarity Varies While Built-In Help Features Assist Analytics Tasks”
The software provides me with an exceptional base for data analytics, but the language is clunkier than others I’ve experienced.

Base SAS - Reliable and powerful platform for epidemiological and statistical data analysis
I have been using SAS since 2021 for epidemiologic and public health research, mainly working with large population-based datasets and survey data. Overall, my experience has been positive, especially for statistical analysis, data management, and reproducibility in research environments. At the same time, some limitations include a learning curve for beginners, an older interface compared to modern tools, and less flexibility for advanced visualizations and open-source integrations. - Analyze data ,build report ,optimize system for decision50M-1B USDIT ServicesReview Source

Simple Interface and Efficient Performance of Base SAS
Well it is very simple and easy to understand its UI kind of Software. It doesn't have enhancements like the enterprise version but its functionality is awesome in its own way. Most of the time when I want to do solely programming only, I use it, and the best advantage of it is, it doesn't feel laggy at all unless we are to generate large output files from it. Also the biggest pros is its customer service is very awesome, they will help us regardless of query type. - Data and Analytics ManagerGov't/PS/EdGovernmentReview Source
