The price. The cost is $650, which is very expensive for a country like Bolivia. Please consider adjusting the price according to the different economies in the world. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Eviews is very simple statistical software especially for beginners as it does not require that much programming knowledge. Everything is clearly specified with clear options. One can make use of it to forecast, building simple statistical models and many more things. So far, i have worked with 2 types of data that is cross sectional and time series, eviews never disappoints me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Eviews does not have proper visualization technique. In other words, one has to rely on other softwares if they need to visualize the data better, get various graphs and plots with results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Running different analysis without knowing the commands. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Its not as popular as other softwares like Stata. People prefer to use those softwares which are popular so that they can be used more universally. If Stata is used in most of the universities I would prefer to use Stata as I wont need go through the hassle of learning new software at new workplace. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The functionality of EViews is incredibly powerful. Some of the most simple functions in EViews yield a host of useful and powerful statistics for your business or project. If you understand the statistical and mathematical theory behind forecasting, you will be able to run powerful functions with your data. EViews make the analysis of time-series data extremely accessible. It simplifies the process of analyzing your data without having to write complex scripts. I would say that my favorite part of EViews is the ability to directly access 3rd party data inside of the software without having to scrape the web for the data you need.
I have used this software for time-series forecasting and have been delighted with its different functions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
My main concern with EViews is that it does have a learning curve. EViews can be intimidating; however, the knowledge required to use the program can be easily attained. With an elementary knowledge of programming, one will be able to use this software effectively. However, intuitively, the further one goes with their statistical analysis, the greater understanding that they will need to have about using programming languages for mathematical and statistical purposes. The user interface is not aesthetically pleasing; however, the functionality of the package more than compensates for this deficiency. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
As an Economist, this software comes in handy assisting me to do advanced research data analysis and interpretation of results for policy recommendations, I just cannot do without E-Views. I like its recent updates that have also enhanced UI - User Interface Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Not any at the moment, I love the performance and accuracy Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
- Ease of use, the GUI is very intuitive and for first-time users very logical
- Efficient on low-spec computers, no need for latest gen specs. I still use my 2014 Macbook without any issues
- Statistical and modeling tools are quite extensive, from time series to regressions
- Support is very good, i never ran into issues in communication
- Visualisation is very good, for creating insights and see the most important key elements for your organisation based on the required needs Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
- Not much debugging support compared to different statistical tools, e.g. Matlab R Stata. I tried few of them
- Cannot be ran in the cloud, i.e. did not find a way into running it on my local server and access it from any HPC
- Relatively basic and flat interface, and no particular black mode to work on Windows 10. Not so much of an issue but user interface is indeed ever-evolving
- Can be pricy compared to the other solutions, but it's worth comparing what fit your needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
