What do you like best about SAS Enterprise Guide?

The hover to discover links to Documentation, but also information on definition on syntax and available options.

Hover to discover is made even better with autofill drop downs as I'm typing. Sometimes it's nice to not have to remember and I often learn new options as I'm programming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SAS Enterprise Guide?

Nothing really. I suppose I wish it could provide paths forward to new content that might be related. For example, to suggest reviewing a related function that might be good to consider. kind of like the "Also See" area of the documentation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

SAS EG is solving the problem of content knowledge expertise variation. It helps me stay educated as I program. I might not need help knowing how to get to my end, but specific syntax help is awesome and the drop down cut back on the actual amount of typing required. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
