Find out what your peers are saying about Alteryx, SAS, Quest Software and others in Data Preparation Tools."Takes advantage of our Enterprise SAS Grid."
"We now mostly use the Enterprise Guide for such scheduling purposes, so error processes will not inhibit the others."
"Enterprise Guide is much better at generating reports than many solutions. We often use it to generate reports, and people interpret them how they like. They often probably use Excel spreadsheets or something like that after they get our data."
"It streamlines our workflow involving multiple steps, from data extraction to modeling, and it is aimed at improving various aspects of banking operations, including customer retention and risk management."
"Enabled us to remove PC SAS, which reduced risk."
"We are able to work on the server, and I can copy a data set and share it with someone in my team. Similarly, if I want some data from them, I can get it. Being able to work on the server and being able to switch from one user to another is a good thing. It is reliable and powerful, and its community is very wide."
"SAS EG offers many excellent features, such as parallel execution on the same server, controlling output datasets in the process flow, and conditional processing."
"It has improved tremendously moving from providing an easy menu-driven system to also providing an excellent platform for developing and running full production systems, with minimal coding, which enabled increasing popularity among many non-programmers."
"It works well for data scientists and can really help them drill down on the information in order to give management tangible data points for larger business decisions."
"Our data warehouse is built on the Netezza database. We have SAS BI, and we populate the Netezza database. When we have tables with, for example, a hundred million rows in Netezza, SAS Enterprise Guide doesn't work. It doesn't return any results. It works for around 30 to 40 million rows, but it is not working for anything more than that. This issue is only with the Netezza database. With Oracle, it is quite good. They can improve its performance with the Netezza database. There should be one unique tool that includes SAS Data Integration Studio and SAS Enterprise Guide for more integration capabilities. With SAS Enterprise Guide, it is not possible to create connections and libraries and build transformations that can be used for other projects. This tool should have all capabilities that SAS Enterprise Guide does not have. Such a tool would be perfect because it will be used by developers and business users at the same time. In addition to the integration capabilities, they should also provide more deployment capabilities. There should be an option to easily create SAS packages and export them from one environment to another. There could also be a possibility to connect with R and Python. Open-source tools are hot in the market nowadays, and it would be good to extend its capabilities."
"For some of the advanced functions, you need to learn some SAS code to get what you want."
"There needs to be a community of SAS Enterprise Guide users for assistance. For example, as they do for Python or SQL."
"More bi-directional integration with the SAS Studio suite of tools is needed."
"Recently, we realized that SAS Enterprise Guide is not so stable and gives us some outputs which are not suitable...Sometimes it's quite hard to report its stability issues."
"The product is missing a visualization component so we have to use a separate tool for visualization."
"It is expensive."
"It would be very useful if EG could be enhanced to automatically file and clear the project log to ensure non-stop running of the project."
"This product really needs to improve its ease of use."
