working really well

It's been working really well for me! I can store all my files here and do analysis on them. The only thing is that it doesn't support Listing output, but other than that it's very easy to use.

VERY impressed

I'm new to AWS, but a long-time SAS user at my academic/research institution. I was excited to maybe have a way to log in for quick analyses that I forgot to run, or needed to rerun, when away from the office. Although it's of course not quite as stable as a local version of SAS, I was really impressed by the capabilities here. To the other reviewers who were hoping to depend on this and never have a real version of SAS installed - get real... this is FREE and usually a single SAS license will cost you what, at least $1k per year. I'm glad to have a backup plan now when I've got a small project that would otherwise have to wait until I can commute into the office, and is saving me from having to buy a personal license for home use (plus my crappy little laptop was having problems with the VMware distribution of SAS University Edition). I'll be recommending this to some friends at other universities that often find themselves in the same position as me - just needing occasional quick access to SAS from their personal computers.

Hi, After I clicked on 'access software' and giving credentials it was directed to 'SAS® University Edition: Information Center' and I started SAS Studio a blue screen came up and keeps loading from 3 hours, it never loaded;(never to worry about my broad band speed its good.) Can you please fix it. Thanks, Harish PL

SAS [University Edition] Studio on AWS appears to work fine for me

  • June 21, 2016

I was concerned by the poor recent user reviews that the current version of SAS [University Edition] Studio from AWS Marketplace might be having some problems. But since the price was right (free software plus minimal AWS usage fees), I implemented it on my AWS instance. I have been able to successfully run several bundled SAS tasks and code snippets on bundled and imported data. So far the software and AWS appear to work as advertised.

I like this cloud implementation with browser access from most PC platforms and no product-specific maintenance on my platforms.

Cannot access software, page will not load.

I wanted to learn SAS on here but I guess the sheer number of weird DRM emulation measure in place make it incredibly hard for SAS to work at all. This doesn't help me not use R or pandas for everything, I wish it was more accessible like other products.

Cannot upload a file larger than 10MB - REALLY. What real data analysis can you do with a file size of 10mb

Disappointed

Hello,

RE: Review of SAS® University Edition - Disappointed

This edition (SAS-UE) is a limited demo only. It's designed for students or programmers to use the edition in a production environment. Reviewing the documentation shows there should be an admin interface. This is an edition stripped of all access rights.

Here's the problem. SAS believes this is free. It's not free. One will pay for the EC2 cost. Documentation will be useless because it's a demo version. The documentation also show a GUI for most administrative functions meaning it results to the GUI side of Windows or Linux. What's shown on the videos are truly the only thing that can be done on this edition.

Thank you,
---MMS

Can't login

Login requires ssh on your windows client. Access from Window 7 is impossible, even following directions to the letter. I am not sure this was tested accessing from windows 7 client with putty. One click on launch page also does not work or redirect from Firefox.

Great way to learn. Using AWS for SAS

I was a SAS programmer as part of my job in IT support. SAS is a great way to analyze data and look for patterns, or to generate statistics.

I have wanted to practice SAS programming for awhile, but couldn't justify the purchase price. This is an excellent service.
