As a data science consultant, I was able to custom-build a machine learning lead generation (web scraping) tool for a client and have it be operational in 72 hours.

This solution assists me with instructing students on how to pre-processing data and use various machine learning algorithms.

I am using RapidMiner to generate insights for predictive maintenance in the Oil and Gas Industry, mainly for the electrical submersible pump system, including surface and down hole assets.

RapidMiner is used in my organization just in education

It enables banks to quickly try and experiment multiple algorithms on same data set without the worry to have full time data scientists working. Focus shifts to data procurement, feature engineering and model validation rather than to worry about coding the same in other languages.

RapidMiner has moved companies toward being more data-driven. Decisions are made based on analysis of data and rapid prototyping, instead of gut feel.
