Pro Analytics with SAS
For recent graduates, this tool is a boon.
Pros
This is another master tool from SAS. It is very famous in the industry and most required to land a high paid jobs in this field.
Cons
Again it's a SAS product so it's not free rather expensive. Its certifications are also not easily available in the market.

As with most SAS products, this is a superior product
Pros
This product is very easy to implement and even easier to use. The analysis tools provided are superior to any of SAS's competitors.
Cons
I cannot think of one con. The product is so easy to use and once you've developed your datasets, you can do almost anything. It does take planning to use properly, but using the SAS Datamanagement Process helps.

If you can dream it, SAS can do it.
Likes Best
SAS allows users free reign to manipulate, aggregate, and present their data any way they see fit. Not only does the software allow for seamless connection to internal databases, but it can also be used to create SAS datasets, ultimately taking the burden off of critical databases and minimizing risk to the company.
Likes Least
The learning curve and breadth of knowledge is very large. It takes a while for a user to become proficient with SAS and the training tools can be quite expensive for the small and medium size companies.
Recommendations
I recommend companies look at what is available besides SAS from subscription software down to free downloads. This will allow the company to really focus on what they want their software to achieve and what is available. Many are surprised by what it costs to get their analytics needs met, but we were particularly happy with the cost-benefit of choosing SAS. For the price, it is the best, but we didn't realize that until we need what else the market provided.
