R will require you some programming knowledge. You can also try SigmaPlot.

A second vote for SigmaPlot.  I also use R sometimes -- I'm not all that proficient at the language, but sometimes it's the best choice, for things like microarray analysis.

I use R for my (and my lab's) data analysis. SigmaPlot is a good program but is not available for everyone. Besides by installing some packages (e.g. RCommander) you can also have GUI in R so that you don't always need to hack the source code.
