The initial setup is very easy, especially for users who are familiar with EDL or EMT. 

NiFi is one of the easiest tools on the market to learn and use. It is also a quick-win solution, which is good for first-time users who are developing data pipelines for EMT. NiFi makes it easy to track and trace the status of your pipelines, so you can be sure that they are working properly.

The initial setup is very easy. I would rate my experience with the initial setup a ten out of ten, where one point is difficult, and ten points are easy.

But if you want its custom mode and control, it's five out of ten. 

For the initial setup, if you configure to custom mode, it's five points. But if you use its single-mode configuration and installation, it's ten.

The setup is very simple. We use a VM on our private cloud and install the solution on that VM.

You have to install it on your platform using the Windows and Linux Operating System, or any Mac OS.

The Apache documentation is very straightforward. You can do it independently of any other guidance. 

It's self-explanatory. 

You can do it yourself without any hiccups, It's straightforward.

The initial setup was straightforward. We can deploy the tool easily on a single node. It won’t take much time. If it is a multi-node cluster, it will take two to three hours.

The initial setup is quite straightforward. The install files are quite handy as it allows the user to change which port the web-based UI is run off of so as to not interfere with any other processes that are using the default ports.

In terms of the setup, the most complex part is if you want to put it on the cloud. On a private cloud, it's tricky. If you set up on-premises, on the other hand, it's easier.

It can take a week or less to deploy the environment.
