  1. Why Learning Both SAS & R Can Do Important For Your Career Growth

  2. Analytics is all the rage right now, data science with r certification primarily. There is an unequalled surge in the data generated day in and day out, making data analysis a matter of predominant concern. This data might seem chaotic and unmanageable to the average person, but for an analyst, it’s like hitting the jackpot! Every vital decision that major companies and organizations take today is often the result of an exhaustive analysis of carefully mined data.

  3. Up until fairly recently, it commanded a market share of close to 75% of all analytics software used by companies for all their data analysis needs. Even with the high cost of obtaining a license to implement SAS, many mid-size and established organizations swear by it.

  4. In the digital age where Exabyte's of data is put out each and every day, it can seem like a difficult task to extract and extrapolate useful information that will help in critical business decision making. This superheroes of Now days Analytics (if you will) step in. Enter SAS & R. is where the

  5. The Champion SAS, short for Statistical Analysis System, is an enterprise software suite developed by the SAS institute. It finds application in advanced analytics, multivariate analyses, business intelligence, data management, and predictive analytics. Up until fairly recently, it commanded a market share of close to 75% of all analytics software used by companies for all their data analysis needs. Even with the high cost of obtaining a license to implement SAS, many mid-size and established organizations swear by it.

  6. The Contender While SAS has been getting all this glorious attention, R has been slowly but steadily preparing to step into the game, leaving behind university classrooms and computer science labs. R has been, and rightly so, called the people’s champion of analytics software for the simple reason that it is open source. What open source means is, it is basically free to use by anyone. It comes with a GNU General Public License which gives the end user the permission to use and modify it as and when required.

  7. R is a programming language and free software environment for statistical computing and graphics that is supported by the R Foundation for Statistical Computing.

  8. The Bout SAS enables the analysis of complex and large data sets extremely efficiently, and can be used for almost any kind of statistical modeling and analysis. It is also robust enough to maintain its position at the top of the analytics software heap. R comes with something called packages which allow specialized statistical techniques, graphical devices (ggplot2), import/export capabilities, and reporting tools (knit, Sweave), etc. Other than its core packages, it has about 7800 additional packages. It has also been getting steadily more powerful with each stable release. Corporate acceptance of R has never been higher.

  9. But what does all this mean to someone who is beginning, or looking to begin, a successful career in analytics? Simply that it is very beneficial and well-advised for data professionals to know both these software's in order to excel in the field. Salary and pay reports in recent years suggest that professionals who have sufficient experience working with SAS and R, earn a sizeable pay package of 8.5 LPA and 10.2 LPA on average, respectively. The reports also indicated that someone with both SAS & R skills can make upwards of 12 LPA. Other than the obvious pay benefits, the other major thing that factors here is the fact that companies (such as Genpact, Accenture, Infosys to name a few) now are using both SAS and R based on company and client needs. This calls for them to look for people skilled in both of these. Need we say more?
