I like that the software provides clear and streamlined data analysis. SAS is particularly helpful for analyzing large datasets, and the structure makes it simple to uncover any issues with the syntax. That feature saves a great deal of time.

Help is not readily available and the workshops are very expensive. Can feel like you hit a plateau and are not accessing all of the neat features. It's a steep learning curve. Had to take classes etc to really learn the basics and begin using the program.

There's not much to dislike. It's been pretty popular as a decision tree algorithm and rightly remains a reliable choice for data science applications. Only wished it was developed sooner!
