We performed a comparison between IBM Watson Studio and RapidMiner based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Science Platforms solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Technical support is great. We have had weekly teleconferences with the technical people at IBM, and they have been fantastic."
"It has greatly improved the performance because it is standardized across the company."
"IBM Watson Studio consistently automates across channels."
"The main benefit is the ease of use. We see a lot of engineers in our site and customers that really like the way the tools are able to work with the people."
"The most important thing is that it's a multi-faceted solution. It's a kind of specialist, not a generalist. It can produce very specific information for the customer. It's totally different from Google or any search engine that produces generic information. It's specialty is that it's all on video."
"The system's ability to take a look at data, segment it and then use that data very differently."
"It is a stable, reliable product."
"Stability-wise, it is a great tool."
"The most valuable feature is what the product sets out to do, which is extracting information and data."
"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."
"The data science, collaboration, and IDN are very, very strong."
"It is easy to use and has a huge community that I can rely on for help. Moreover, it is interactive."
"The most valuable features are the Binary classification and Auto Model."
"The most valuable feature of RapidMiner is that it is code free. It is similar to playing with Lego pieces and executing after you are finished to see the results. Additionally, it is easy to use and has interesting utilities when preparing the data. It has a utility to automatically launch a series of models and show the comparisons. When finished with the comparisons you can select the best one, and deploy it automatically."
"The most valuable feature of RapidMiner is that it can read a large number of file formats including CSV, Excel, and in particular, SPSS."
"The GUI capabilities of the solution are excellent. Their Auto ML model provides for even non-coder data scientists to deploy a model."
"I think maybe the support is an area where it lacks."
"The initial setup was complex."
"I want IBM's technical support team to provide more specific answers to queries."
"Initially, it was quite complex. For us, it was not only a matter of getting it installed, that was just a start. It was also trying to come up with a standard way of implementing it across the entire organization, which had been a challenge."
"So a better user interface could be very helpful"
"Some of the solutions are really good solutions but they can be a little too costly for many."
"It's sometimes easy to get lost given the number of images the solution opens up when you click on the mouse and the amount of different tabs."
"The main challenge lies in visibility and ease of use."
"I would like to see all users have access to all of the deep learning models, and that they can be used easily."
"The price of this solution should be improved."
"It would be helpful to have some tutorials on communicating with Python."
"I would like to see more integration capabilities."
"I would appreciate improvements in automation and customization options to further streamline processes."
"In the Mexican or Latin American market, it's kind of pricey."
"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."
"If they could include video tutorials, people would find that quite helpful."
