Efficiency – who cares? [Software]
Hi Helmut,
The problem with "validated software" is in people who does not know anything about "software validation" but always heard that SAS is the Industry standard.
I had issues like that sometimes. Clients asking for SAS instead of R since R is not "validated" (although base R is actually validated for use in clinical trials), even for observational studies. They usually understand the point when we send them a new quotation with the extra-fee for software license
