They do not as if now. I wouldn't say they do analytics even after forming a department specifically for that. On Sep 16, 2015 8:10 AM, "Eva Kimathi" <evakimathi@gmail.com> wrote:
Thank you all for the advice.
The research team is primarily agriculture based...their analyst insists that Stata is for engineering and he hasn't heard of R.
@Mosoti I will check the Enterprise guide, thank you
@Kennedy do you know if Safcom offer analytics as a service? (I wish)
I'll keep you posted.
Cheers

Any idea who's using R? I know equity had training on this but not sure if they actively use it.
For SAS, get someone from Safcom to advice. On Sep 15, 2015 11:18 PM, "Vincent Mosoti via skunkworks" < skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke> wrote:
For individual users, you can go for the SAS Enterprise Guide but for collaboration purposes you will need to include the server.
Alternatives; you can consider IBM SPSS or Stata. R is also an option if the users can roll up their sleeves and get coding.

Hello All,
My employer has a research department and they asked me for assistance in procuring SAS 9.4 . I am not conversant with it and went online to look it up.
From SAS website, it seems like it is at least a three tier system (server to end user). My queries:
- Is there anyone out there that has interacted with SAS? - Does it scale down or should I also include a server along with their request? - Are there alternatives that are not as large scale as SAS?
I look forward to your response :)
