Great IDE for teaching R courses
What do you like best about the product?
RStudio is a very simple but powerful IDE, ideal for people new to either R or programming. It can be installed in any major OS (Windows, Linux, MacOS) in a short amount of time, usually without any problems. It combines a simple editor, terminal and variable window that makes it feel like a Matlab-like environment, which is great for beginners or for people coming from other languages like Matlab.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is very few things to dislike about RStudio, since it is probably the best R IDE out there. However, some areas for improvement are the simple IDE and graphics handling (sometimes a little buggy).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm teaching R courses using this IDE and I also use it myself when doing research in R.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are learning R, RStudio is the way to go. I also found it useful when teaching R courses, since the students (usually new to programming) can get the IDE up and running very quickly and everything is much more visual (they do not have to keep track of the objects in memory, and so on.)

The best IDE for R
What do you like best about the product?
R-studio is well designed to offer a integrated development environment. It features a console, syntax-highlighting editor that supports direct code execution, as well as tools for plotting, history, debugging and workspace management. What's the most excellent thing is it not only offers the automatic code completion, but also the automatic file path completion. It really save a lot of time to help you interact with the exterior environment.
What do you dislike about the product?
If I have to list something I do not like about Rstudio, I may say the Rstudio for MAC may collapse when I was using parallel method computing huge calculations and it may not save the latest revision I made before the collapse.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Rstudio to work on the data analysis by R. Mostly, the problems I got are from the academical project. And up to now, the R and Rstudio has helped me successfully completed several projects.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You gotta install R first before you install R-Studio
