Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"RapidMiner is very easy to use.""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.""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 data science, collaboration, and IDN are very, very strong.""The most valuable feature is what the product sets out to do, which is extracting information and data.""The GUI capabilities of the solution are excellent. Their Auto ML model provides for even non-coder data scientists to deploy a model.""Using the GUI, I can have models and algorithms drag and drop nodes."

Cons
"RapidMiner would be improved with the inclusion of more machine learning algorithms for generating time-series forecasting models.""In the Mexican or Latin American market, it's kind of pricey.""If they could include video tutorials, people would find that quite helpful.""The visual interface could use something like the-drag-and-drop features which other products already support. Some additional features can make RapidMiner a better tool and maybe more competitive.""The biggest problem, not from a platform process, but from an avoidance process, is when you work in a heavily regulated environment, like banking and finance. Whenever you make a decision or there is an output, you need to bill it as an avoidance to the investigator or to the bank audit team. If you made decisions within this machine learning model, you need to explain why you did so. It would better if you could explain your decision in terms of delivery. However, this is an issue with all ML platforms. Many companies are working heavily in this area to help figure out how to make it more explainable to the business team or the regulator.""Improve the online data services.""RapidMiner can improve deep learning by enhancing the features.""I would like to see all users have access to all of the deep learning models, and that they can be used easily."
