Intuitive and easy to use, updating to latest version is easy and the support is quick and reliable. Always listening carefully the customers and worried about solving things or include in next versions Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Still focus on language... maybe including some IA stuff will become the onboarding new members tasks easier Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
9 out of 10 Total Reviews for Altair SLC
I installed the desktop version of Altair Analytics Workbench and found it super easy to install and to start using.
I use the software on a dialy basis have not identified any major shortcomings.
Where I did struggle with a query which I couldn't resolve through the multitude of online resources, I found their customer support to be highly responsive with a very short resolution time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
When searching the web for solutions to queries I may have, I have trouble limiting the results to focus on Altair Analytics Workbench and SLC specifically.
Often times solutions will pop up for one of their many alternative solutions.
More recently, Python code has been added to the mix making it a bit more challenging to find solutions on the web specifically. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The SLC setup was smooth. In less than a minute, I was settling into my data, feeling like a data Jedi not a lost puppy. It skips my headache of individual licenses and connect to multiple databases. My new superpower. It is SLC that makes my messy data transform into shiny clean gems or causes me to sample strategically, and I can reshape my data smoothly without any struggle.

At times, trying to figure out an answer proves to be difficult for users like us. The search results frequently render Ambition's entire software package, not just SLC. It's like searching for a specific spice in a pantry full of exotic ingredients overflowing. However, with Python integration, the search is just as much harder. At other times, I prefer only SLC without the final results with Python. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Une plate-forme riche et robuste qui permet de coder dans de multiples langages et d'exécuter nos programmes en environnement local ou serveur.
WPS est facile à prendre en main.
Côté performance, les temps d'exécution sont rapides pour les programmes SAS.
Le coût du logiciel est attractif par rapport aux autres solutions du marché.
Des mises à jour égulières sont proposées et un support est disponible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Peu de choses en réalité.
Il manquerait peut-être des packages R ou Python qui nous permettent de lire les fichiers au format wpd, ainsi que des fonctionnalités d'import de fichiers csv à partir d'un code SAS (exemple du spérateur décimal "." ou ",", on ne peut pas le spécifier, en tous cas dans la version du logiciel que j'utilise.
Peut-être aussi un outil de debugging, notamment pour le code R et Python inclus dans le code SAS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The software is relavitely easy to set up & install.
It has most of the SAS language covered, and allows you to switch to other languages.
This enables us to link easily with other platforms and pull data in as an ETL. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I am not a fan of having to use workspaces all the time, sometimes you just want to run a quick bit of code. i set up a general workspace to over come this in the end.
It is not a 100% match for SAS, so options are missing and you have to check against the user guide for gaps.
The customer support is really good, and do get back to you; however sometimes you need an answer "now" (as it is product specific) and there is no number to call. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Can use SAS programming language, which is more flexible than SQL Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Too slow as data is stored in Snowflake and can't use Altair SLC directly on Snowflake
Initial setup was difficult due to new licencing.
Support is not as good as before WPS was bought out by Altair. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Great tool for SAS scripts, we have a code that i need to run monthly and it works well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Can't think of any but only think i can say is perhaps there is a way for data sets to be slightly less in size Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Altair SLC and the Analytics Workbench are based on the Eclipse SDE environment, so will be familiar to many users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
While Altair SLC is only going to be able to emulate a subset of SAS software functionality, the help system is not necessarily helpful enough to allow you to see where functionality may be missing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
