## Reviews

### "Exciting New option for Stat review and Analysis...." — 4.0/5

> **Don** | *8 May 2023* | Venture Capital & Private Equity | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The graphical interface is much friendlier than competing products.  The outputs are substantially easier to view and understand for a non highly technical audience.  You can take the outputs and share them without adjustment to "key" decision makers.  Ultimately these are the people that hold the key to success in our work.
> 
> **Cons**: Just a learning curve of how you navigate using the software.
> 
> Enjoy it and am thankful that this product is here and available.

-----

### "Good, inexpensive substitute for R" — 5.0/5

> **William** | *2 May 2023* | Biotechnology | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: - easy to import and transform data- surprisingly many features- R syntax is available and can be modified
> 
> **Cons**: - image export is awkward- sometimes slow to launch
> 
> Overall, this is a fantastic product. I use it frequently and find it seamlessly entering my workflow. All basic statistical analyses and many more complex ones are present, easy to implement, and work reliably. Huge datasets are no problem and just about anything you can do in stock R you can do with BlueSky.

-----

### "Not a usable software" — 2.0/5

> **Fraser** | *2 May 2023* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Make it more like SPSS or Jamovi. Using files from other software. Using ‘some R commands’.
> 
> **Cons**: Poor editing or seting up variables. Not able to connect to R without a lot of problems.
> 
> Tried it back and forth with SPSS and R to test functionality.  After one yr will not support it unless a big change.

-----

### "A new horizon for stat software" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *11 May 2023* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Its simplicity and compatibility with other similar software and analyses
> 
> **Cons**: Room for improvement of user interface and data visualization
> 
> It is much easier than working with SPSS and it's great that you can use R coding.

-----

### "Feature rich statistics package" — 5.0/5

> **Emin Mehmet** | *17 June 2023* | Biotechnology | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Most feature rich package, relative ease of use, lends itself to reproducible research (Markdown), R GUI but also has R editor, No need to know R, SPSS alternative, imports from and exports to most known formats, best user manual I ever read (skimmed), last but not least: excellent support team and a dedicated founder.
> 
> **Cons**: Menus may be overwhelming.  This is hardly a con because the package is so feature rich, it cannot be presented with a simpler menu system.
> 
> I used very early versions (like7 or so) then there was some character encoding problem with my language which was recently solved.  I will be using this software much more frequently now.  I wanted this software for a clinical trial course I was teaching in Bogazici University.  Maybe in future terms, now that it works perfectly across languages.
