I really do not use this program at work, but I know its importance when dealing with large database of information. This program gives us the opportunity to create, manage and organize large database set. Also, we are able to import data from other sources.
You can perform statistical analysis, watching for unusual relationships between certain elements. You can highlight unusual combinations and search for outliers. You can even view selected data points in a graph, watching for anything.

I think it is a good issue that you can view only the selected data, so that it won’t make the databases looks so messy.
