PGM Solutions is a French company whose core products include RCode and RPGM. RCode is positioned as a modern IDE for R, while RPGM is designed to package R scripts into tools, dashboards, or business applications with graphical interfaces, so end users no longer have to work directly with the command line.
RPGM covers development, execution, and deployment. RPGM Editor provides R code editing, syntax highlighting, access to R/RPGM documentation, GUI editing and preview, and supports controls such as text, numbers, multi-select, images, tables, sliders, and file selection. Its sequencer can chain interfaces, scripts, and conditional outputs in a specified order, making it suitable for turning complex R workflows into repeatable business applications. The editor also provides direct access to the R console, along with helper tools related to the Excel API and C plugin compilation.
RPGM Client is used to run generated .pgm programs, making it suitable for internal enterprise desktop deployments, while allowing the R environment to be hidden from users. RPGM Server allows .pgm programs to run in a browser: users only need to log in, with no local installation of R or LaTeX required. The server handles R execution and supports capabilities such as ACL user groups, concurrent execution of multiple programs, and continued execution after the browser is disconnected. Publicly available use cases are concentrated in R-intensive fields such as insurance actuarial work, pricing, risk management, banking reports, consulting delivery, pharmaceuticals, and environmental biostatistics.
A free version is available, but it cannot be used commercially and is limited to a maximum of 3 interfaces per application, with restricted Excel API access. Commercial plans require contacting sales: the Starting pack includes 3 developer licenses and 30 end users; custom plans support at least 5 R or Python developers, unlimited end users, and Standalone deployment. Support channels include a community forum and email contact, but no SLA, enterprise support tiers, or clear response times were found.
The main advantage is that RPGM provides a complete delivery workflow for R applications, significantly lowering the barrier for business users to work with R scripts, while supporting both desktop and server deployment. Its weaknesses include opaque pricing, unclear open-source status, and limited depth in public documentation. Python support is mentioned only on the pricing page, and its functional boundaries are unclear. Information on access from China, payment methods, and localization has not been disclosed, so these are currently marked as unknown. If a team prefers open source or a more mature ecosystem, it may be worth comparing with Posit/RStudio, Shiny, Dash for R, Streamlit, Jupyter, or KNIME.
