Setting up RapidMiner was straightforward. Deployment was quick and easy, taking around ten minutes and maintenance has been hassle-free.

My first deployment was trivial because I used to use the Iris data set, which took me six or seven minutes to set up. With my current larger dataset, it has taken four or five weeks.

The initial setup is very straightforward. I'd rate the ease of setup eight out of ten. It's pretty easy.

Deployment only takes a few minutes. You need to download an installation file. The time it takes depends on the speed of your computer. 

The initial setup of RapidMiner is simple. The solution does not take a similar time to others solutions. However, if you were to do a cloud deployment it could be very difficult.

The initial setup is something that is supposed to be straightforward according to the people who implemented the solution. I was not part of the setup directly, so I don't know how complicated that is hands-on and so I'm not sure exactly what is involved or the exact amount of time it might take. The initial data mounting might be a big task when it is done globally as it is for this client.  

RapidMiner is a little bit difficult to setup. It is neither easy nor too difficult to set up.  

Not at all. Lots of YouTube videos and documentation. Super easy.

Installing RapidMiner is relatively straightforward. I am only on a license for analyzing the data by itself. After installation, you have to optimize the module applications using the standard process and methodology, so the total time for deployment is around two or three weeks.

Setting up RapidMiner is straightforward, and we are a partner, so the vendor provides us with prompt support when needed. We need two or three people for maintenance but no more than that. Usually, some technical guys are involved whenever you set up this kind of infrastructure. Still, you typically start with some specific use case in a project base, so a manager is involved along with business analysts and some data scientists. The IT architect works on the setup bits and pieces, and then they're not required anymore.

The initial setup is very easy. The software is very easy to use.

I have been teaching for nine years and because I have the experience, it is easy.

In terms of the initial setup, you don't need to install the solution because it's a desktop version. It's the server of the deployment model which is a bit more complex. However, a desktop version is a standalone application and it's pretty straightforward. 

Unless you have some preliminary understanding of how machine learning models work, you will not be able to use the tool. It's not just with RapidMiner, it's on any tool. You have to check the parameters for every algorithm and you need to understand how algorithms work. Even with the excellent GUI and auto model capabilities, you'll still need the have a decent level of data science or machine learning knowledge.

In terms of implementation, I will say that, that if a user gets the desktop version without the server, it's very difficult for them to actually get value out of the product. RapidMinor has discovered that the churn on the desktop product is very high. If you're going to get the desktop version, no worries, however, you have to have a clear strategy on how do the outputs of your models are going to make an impact on the business because the impact is not clearly seen sometimes.

The initial setup is easy.

The initial setup of this solution is pretty straightforward and easy to understand.
