Senior Data Scientist at Deloitte
Visual workflows have streamlined healthcare analytics and have reduced reporting time significantly
In terms of improvement, I cannot comment on the LLMs or the agentic view as I have not used them yet. However, I feel that better documentation is necessary. Dataiku should establish a stronger community since this is proprietary software, where users can share knowledge. Although they have some community interaction, it is often challenging to find assistance when stuck. For example, when I was new to Dataiku and trying to use an external optimization tool such as CPLEX, I struggled with resource directory linking to a project's notebook. Detailed documentation and community discussions could have significantly alleviated these issues for users such as myself.

Enables us to forecast and pull trends and has an easy installation
My rating for SAP Predictive Analytics would be an eight out of ten. If I have to be bold, I'll probably say that we're building away hours, and we are actually putting a lot of the actual predicting stuff back into the warehouse. So running it very bi-directionally. So I'm not sure what its integration features are at the moment, but that's an area we're going to look into in the next month or so.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I rate the overall product as eight out of ten."
"Dataiku has positively impacted my organization, specifically in one project where we performed migration from AWS to Dataiku, speeding up the solution by close to 40% and reducing architecture costs by almost 70%, which was a significant benefit and greatly impacted our operations."
"The most valuable feature is the set of visual data preparation tools."
"I like the interface, which is probably my favorite part of the solution. It is really user-friendly for an IT person."
"The best features Dataiku offers that help me with my demand forecasting and data science projects include having a complete overview of the flow directly from the flowchart, allowing me to observe all the steps in a single overview, and the ability to use a no-code, low-code node."
"The best features Dataiku offers include the ability for users to use the node without having to code and the functionality related to low-code/no-code."
"Data Science Studio's data science model is very useful."
"Cloud-based process run helps in not keeping the systems on while processes are running."
"The most valuable features are the analytics and reporting."
"I think the features of the actual ability to forecast and pull trends and correlations has been really good."
 

Cons

"The technical support from Dataiku is not good. The support team does not provide adequate assistance, and there are concerns about billing requests."
"Although known for Big Data, the processing time to process 1.8 billion records was terribly slow (five days)."
"The ability to have charts right from the explorer would be an improvement."
"I find that it is a little slow during use. It takes more time than I would expect for operations to complete."
"The license is very expensive."
"I have not seen a return on investment with Dataiku in terms of time saved, money saved, or fewer employees needed."
"Server up-time needs to be improved. Also, query engines like Spark and Hive need to be more stable."
"All products have room for improvement, and I would like to see their pricing simplified, as it is somewhat complex."
"This solution works for acquired data but not live, real-time data."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The annual licensing fees are approximately €20 ($22 USD) per key for the basic version and €40 ($44 USD) per key for the version with everything."
"Pricing is pretty steep. Dataiku is also not that cheap."
"A free trial version is available for testing out this solution."
"The pricing is reasonable"
