We performed a comparison between RapidMiner and Tableau based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Alteryx, RapidMiner, SAP and others in Predictive Analytics."I like not having to write all solutions from code. Being able to drag and drop controls, enables me to focus on building the best model, without needing to search for syntax errors or extra libraries."
"What I like about RapidMiner is its all-in-one nature, which allows me to prepare, extract, transform, and load data within the same tool."
"We value the collaboration and governance features because it's a comprehensive platform that covers everything from data extraction to modeling operations in the ML language. RapidMiner is competitive in the ML space."
"RapidMiner for Windows is an excellent graphical tool for data science."
"It's helpful if you want to make informed decisions using data. We can take the information, tease out the attributes, and label everything. It's suitable for profiling and forecasting in any industry."
"The most valuable features are the Binary classification and Auto Model."
"RapidMiner is very easy to use."
"The documentation for this solution is very good, where each operator is explained with how to use it."
"This solution has improved insights into quantitative data."
"The best use case for us is the solution's integration with Salesforce because we are also partners of Salesforce."
"All features are valuable. It is very user-friendly, and it is mostly drag-and-drop. If we have the dataset available, then we can develop any dashboard very quickly."
"Tableau is highly scalable. Now that they've introduced Hyper, you can create an extract of more than 5 million rows in minutes and then do your analysis."
"The ease of presenting findings is very helpful."
"The Web Editing capabilities allow us to grant end users enough capabilities for them to do self-serve discovery without the added cost of needing to get everyone desktop licenses."
"Tableau's most valuable feature is its ability to connect with various data sources and display real-time data on three different dashboards."
"Tableau is a fantastic tool that provides impressive dashboards and customized reports."
"It would be helpful to have some tutorials on communicating with Python."
"RapidMiner would be improved with the inclusion of more machine learning algorithms for generating time-series forecasting models."
"A great product but confusing in some way with regard to the user interface and integration with other tools."
"I would like to see all users have access to all of the deep learning models, and that they can be used easily."
"The server product has been getting updated and continues to be better each release. When I started using RapidMiner, it was solid but not easy to set up and upgrade."
"I would like to see more integration capabilities."
"In terms of the UI and SaaS, the user interface with KNIME is more appealing than RapidMiner."
"I think that they should make deep learning models easier."
"Tableau's automatic insight could be improved. It has some predefined capabilities to understand the data, but I think they need more. Customers need more insight automatically from data—they don't want to discover them, they want to get the forecast automatically. The data preparation should also be improved because it's not easy. Tableau tries to focus on the business side, but the backend side has not improved much. They also have an ETS solution, but it's limited."
"Many things have to be improved in Tableau. Right now, we make the calculation, and then we get that information. It would be better if business users could do that. I would ask the people at Tableau to provide that option to business users to get that information in one click. It would be better if they automated some calculations. There should be more automation in Tableau. However, there are many things in automation mode, but it is very limited at the moment. We need automation for people who do not know much about Tableau. It would also be better if there were good community support like in Alteryx."
"The solution could use more features in data analytics."
"The interface can be improved, in part because there is no indication that something is running or that it's processing."
"I would like to have the product be more flexible in terms of creating online shared dashboards."
"It should offer better features for customization."
"I am not a frequent user of this solution, so I am not sure what they've been doing recently. The last time when I used it, I had to use other tools with it for data extraction and cleansing. Its price should also be improved. It is more expensive than Power BI. In terms of training, there is generally better online training for Power BI, but I am not sure of that. It would be helpful to know from where to access its training."
"When there are millions of records, scaling up is quite difficult."
