We love to receive feedback from users about our software and we use this to help us understand the most desirable features to add. For version 4.1 we have added many SAS language features and enhanced our drag-and-drop workflow to make it even easier to integrate open source languages with the powerful SAS language to get the best value from your analytics processes.

New features

When writing and running SAS language programs:

• Point-and-click data profiling available from the WPS Server Explorer.
• A new Run Step option available in the Script editor.
• Option to clear the log each time a program or step is run.
• Open encrypted datasets from the WPS Server Explorer, Project Explorer and File Explorer.

When creating drag-and-drop workflows:

• Comments can now be added to a Workflow that helps project collaboration.
• Importing data has been made easier.
• Richer data prep blocks and code blocks.
• More blocks for model training, scoring, data export and chart building.

Machine Learning: We have added innovative machine learning procedures for decision forests, neural networks and more.

Statistics: There are new and enhanced statistics, time series and graphing procedures.

ODS: Output formatting and reporting features have been significantly enhanced.

Hub: Our centralised data management and production deployment service is being adopted by our larger customers to keep tabs on data and reduce end-user provisioning and administration overhead.

We will continue to build further valuable analytics and machine learning features in 2019 and we look forward to hearing your ideas for future features.
