SAS® Visual Forecasting is an intuitive and easy tool to use for quickly building a variety of forecasting models - from the simplest to the most complicated models. Very easy to compare different models and pick the champion model. I use it in my classroom teaching, and students really like it. Another advantage is the visual interface which allows me to focus on the model building and not worry about the syntax etc. It has been a great experience using it in my teaching and research.

Not much, initially getting the hang of the interface, just like anything else. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
SAS VA paints a picture about the data very quickly in a streamlined way. I appreciate that VA can create new objects from subsets of existing visuals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's not really a dislike, but I can definitely foresee some learning curves if someone is not used to building out these "objects." Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The repository of various ML techniques in the library needs an overhaul. Maybe that might be up in the cards sooner than before. The availability of more generic tasks like anomaly detection, outlier detection, time series Forecasting would definitely make the competition turn around. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This tool helps me effortlessly create insights from unstructured data. It has a user-friendly interface which is a plus. It has prebuilt natural language models which help us effortlessly extract information like context, sentiments etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Although SAS Visual Text Analytics is very user-friendly, it cannot be customised for wide range of resources. Another thing which I dislike is it is not open-sourced(which means there is less help from the community, and the scope of the discussion forum is limited). With minimal learning materials available on the internet, it becomes problematic when you are struck somewhere. However, this will improve as the user base increase over time.
