Accelerated machine learning model development with seamless deployment
We used Domino Data Science Platform for developing and working with machine learning models. It facilitated end-to-end development processes. Domino is based on Git, enabling collaboration similar to using Git. Each user operates on their own equivalent of a branch or fork, and once finished, they…

Enables fast project development with efficient workflow modifications and promising features while offering modularity and reusability
KNIME is simple and allows for fast project development due to its reusability. I appreciate the ability to make improvements or modifications in existing workflows. Although I have not yet used the forecasting and customer profiling features, I find them promising. Another effective feature is the ability to use GET request objects to retrieve data from websites or APIs. This makes iterative steps easy to manage. It is more elastic and modern compared to SAP Data Services, allowing node creation and regrouping components or steps for reuse in different projects.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The workspaces, which are like wrappers of Docker containers, made it easy to start development environments using Domino."
"The scalability of the solution is good; I'd rate it four out of five."
"The hardest part is keeping a tidy workspace because of the many nodes involved. When teaching, it would be helpful if there was more emphasis on how to group nodes effectively. For example, turning frequently used nodes into a single component can simplify things."
"We are able to automate several functions which were done manually. I can integrate several data sets quickly and easily, to support analytics."
"I've never had any problems with stability."
"What I like the most is that it works almost out of the box with Random Forest and other Forest nodes."
"KNIME is quite scalable, which is one of the most important features that we found."
"Clear view of the data at every step of ETL process enables changing the flow as needed."
"There are a lot of connectors available in KNIME."
"The product is user-friendly."
 

Cons

"The deployment of large language models (LLMs) could be improved."
"The predictive analysis feature needs improvement."
"I would prefer to have more connectivity."
"It's difficult to provide input on the improvement area because it's more of self-learning. However, there are times when I am not able to do certain things. I don't know if it's because the solution doesn't allow me or if it's because of the lack of knowledge."
"KNIME's documentation is not strong."
"KNIME's licensing and data management aren't as straightforward relative to Alteryx. Alteryx's tools are more sophisticated, so you need fewer to use it compared to KNIME. I think tab implementation could be easier, too."
"It could input more data acquisitions from other sources and it is difficult to combine with Python."
"It needs more examples, use cases, and MOOC to learn, especially with respect to the algorithms and how to practically create a flow from end-to-end."
"It could be easier to use."
"KNIME could improve when it comes to large data markets."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The price of KNIME is quite reasonable and the designer tool can be used free of charge."
"There is no cost for using KNIME because it is an open-source solution, but you have to pay if you need a server."
"KNIME is a cost-effective solution because it’s free of cost."
"KNIME is free as a stand-alone desktop-based platform but if you want to get a KNIME server then you can find the cost on their website."
"KNIME assets are stand alone, as the solution is open source."
"I use the open-source version."
"Scaling to the on-premises version requires a licensing fee per user that is a bit expensive in comparison to R, Python, and SAS."
"KNIME is free and open source."
