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 scalability of the solution is good; I'd rate it four out of five."
"The workspaces, which are like wrappers of Docker containers, made it easy to start development environments using Domino."
"We primarily use the solution for customer retention, but there are a lot of use cases for this particular product."
"If you like data analysis, KNIME is the best option; it's free and easy to set up."
"This is a very handy tool and I use it quite interactively."
"It allows for a user-friendly approach where you can simply drag and drop elements to create your model, which is a convenient and effective idea."
"KNIME is more intuitive and easier to use, which is the principal advantage."
"Usability, and organising workflows in very neat manner. Controlling workflow through variables is something amazing."
"With KNIME, I am able to get that process down to under one minute, with data broken down into individual tabs."
"It is very fast to develop solutions."
"Valuable features include visual workflow creation, workflow variables (parameterisation), automatic caching of all intermediate data sets in the workflow, scheduling with the server."
 

Cons

"The deployment of large language models (LLMs) could be improved."
"The predictive analysis feature needs improvement."
"The predictive analysis feature needs improvement."
"It could input more data acquisitions from other sources and it is difficult to combine with Python."
"KNIME needs to provide more documentation and training materials, including webinars or online seminars."
"One area that could be improved is increasing awareness and adoption of KNIME among organizations. Despite its capabilities, it is not as well-known as other tools. The advertising and marketing efforts to reach out to companies and universities have not been very successful."
"I would like it to have data visualitation capabilities. Today I'm still creating my own data visualtions tools to present my reports."
"The current UI is primarily in English. Analyzing data in local languages might present challenges or issues."
"Though I can use KNIME in a 64-bit platform in the lab, it's missing some features. For example, from my laptop, I can use the image reader feature of KNIME. However, in the lab, the image reader node is missing."
"The documentation is lacking and it could be better."
"System resource usage. Knime will occupy total system RAM size and other applications will hang."
