Our take
In a data-driven world, having reliable and accessible software is key to optimizing functionality. Posit provides R and Python-based tools to help improve the speed and quality of analysis, created "for data scientists by data scientists", with uses in data science, scientific research, and technical communication.
Posit's unique approach to creating universal data processing capabilities is helping to create new pathways in the digital age. It uses a unique blend of social and commercial endeavours to satisfy the demand for comprehensive data processing, and many of the company's products, including Posit Team for enterprises, are open sourced and accessible to all. Those looking for more advanced products can access programs such as Posit Server Pro and Shiny Server Pro for workspace management.
Given its unique approach to data management, entities from Liberty Mutual to Walmart and NASA have been incorporating Posit's technology. The company has received considerable amounts of funding, which has been used to expand its services, and as the demand for open source services continues to grow, Posit's effort to create data management services for all should continue to capture market share.
