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.

Customization and centralization improve efficiency despite complex user interface
The organizational context makes it difficult to deploy Oracle Advanced Analytics because we have all kinds of contract maintenance parties; however, the software installation itself is something we're used to doing, so that's no problem for us. It is not a really easy product to use, so you have to do a lot of configuration. The user interface is somewhat complex, and while they're working on that, for the end-user it is not really intuitive, so that could be improved. Currently, we are not using the predictive analytics capabilities, so I cannot say anything about it.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This solution is easy to use and especially good at data preparation and wrapping."
"For organizations with a small team of data analysts or data scientists, it is a very easy tool to become familiar with predictive modeling, and makes it possible to hand over projects to colleagues without the need to extensively document them."
"We have found KNIME valuable when it comes to its visualization."
"Overall KNIME serves its purpose and does a good job."
"KNIME is more intuitive and easier to use, which is the principal advantage."
"Data preparation and data modeling are easy to do."
"The product is user-friendly."
"It's a very powerful and simple tool to use."
"Ability to pull together multiple sources of information."
"One of the valuable features is the ability to pull together multiple sources of information and the tools are easy to use which is the main factor."
"Viewing the data on the Dashboard with charts is a great option this tool provides."
"When it comes to data mining, I am acquainted with most or all of the Oracle tools and have had a positive experience with them."
"Oracle Advanced Analytics effectively prevents threats and helps maintain a secure network environment."
"When needed, we will work closely with Oracle support and implement their workaround in our application."
"Oracle Advanced Analytics helps us to steer the company, to create centralized reports and dashboards so that we're all using the same information, and we're not relying that much on Excel and different custom reporting solutions."
"Easy to use, simple, with a quick learning curve."
 

Cons

"I'd like something that would make it easier to connect/parse websites, although I will fully admit that I'm not as proficient in KNIME as I would like to be, so it could be I'm just missing something."
"From the point of view of the interface, they can do a little bit better."
"KNIME is not scalable."
"It's pretty straightforward to understand. So, if you understand what the pipeline is, you can use the drag-and-drop functionality without much training. Doing the same thing in Python requires so much more training. That's why I use KNIME."
"There are other applications that I've used that make collecting the data and interpreting it a lot easier."
"There are some parameters that I would like to have at a bigger scale. The upper limit of one node that tries to find spots or areas in photos was too small for us. It would need to be bigger."
"The overall user experience feels unpolished. In particular: Data field type conversion is a real hassle, and date fields are a hassle; documentation is pretty poor; user community is average at best."
"It could input more data acquisitions from other sources and it is difficult to combine with Python."
"There are some transactions we have not been able to find through the dashboard."
"There are some transactions we have not been able to find through the dashboard."
"The performance, scalability and queries should be addressed, as well as the data distribution of certain data techniques."
"Problems in handling huge data sets."
"The performance, scalability and queries should be addressed, as well as the data distribution of certain data techniques."
"I would like to see an improvement in the ease of implementing customized data sources and the like."
"Since a separate Oracle database is needed, the data loading and cleansing the raw data can be a time consuming process."
"One area for product improvement is the user experience, particularly when navigating through screens."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"KNIME is free and open source."
"It's an open-source solution."
"At this time, I am using the free version of Knime."
"KNIME desktop is free, which is great for analytics teams. Server is well priced, depending on how much support is required."
"For beginners, the free desktop version is very attractive, but the full server version can be more expensive. I have only used the free version and it offers a fair pricing system. I have been promoting it to others without any compensation or request from the company, simply because I am enthusiastic about it. I am not aware of the pricing for the server version, but it seems to be widely used."
"The client versions are mostly free, and we pay only for the KNIME server version. It's not a cheap solution."
"They have different versions, but I am using the open-source one."
"KNIME assets are stand alone, as the solution is open source."
"The solution is priced well."
