We performed a comparison between Alteryx, IBM SPSS Statistics, and RapidMiner based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Databricks, Microsoft, Alteryx and others in Data Science Platforms."The cloud deployment ensures it scales easily."
"The most valuable feature of Alteryx is its unlimited handling capabilities."
"I like that I can merge data from different sources into one place."
"Alteryx helps me do a lot of automation. The best thing about Alteryx is that you don't have to repeat the workflow over and over again. Unlike Excel, where you need to write formulas for each new file, Alteryx follows a consistent process. You can schedule and automate the workflow, even if the files change."
"All of the data science features in terms of unioning and joining data together are valuable."
"The most valuable feature for me is integration."
"The most valuable feature of Alteryx is user-friendliness."
"It is a stable and scalable solution."
"in terms of the simplicity, I think the SPSS basic can handle it."
"It has helped our analyst unit deliver work with more transparency and confidence, given that we can always view the dataset in totality, after each step of data transformation."
"It is a modeling tool with helpful automation."
"It has the ability to easily change any variable in our research."
"Capability analysis is one of the main and valuable functions. We also do some hypothesis testing in Minitab and summary stats. These are the functions that we find very useful."
"I've found the descriptive statistics and cross-tabs valuable. The very simple correlations and regressions are as well."
"The most valuable feature is its robust statistical analysis capabilities."
"The features that I have found most valuable are the Bayesian statistics and descriptive statistics."
"The GUI capabilities of the solution are excellent. Their Auto ML model provides for even non-coder data scientists to deploy a model."
"The data science, collaboration, and IDN are very, very strong."
"The most valuable feature of RapidMiner is that it is code free. It is similar to playing with Lego pieces and executing after you are finished to see the results. Additionally, it is easy to use and has interesting utilities when preparing the data. It has a utility to automatically launch a series of models and show the comparisons. When finished with the comparisons you can select the best one, and deploy it automatically."
"The documentation for this solution is very good, where each operator is explained with how to use it."
"Scalability is not really a concern with RapidMiner. It scales very well and can be used in global implementations."
"RapidMiner for Windows is an excellent graphical tool for data science."
"We value the collaboration and governance features because it's a comprehensive platform that covers everything from data extraction to modeling operations in the ML language. RapidMiner is competitive in the ML space."
"RapidMiner is very easy to use."
"Alteryx can improve the model management and deployment processing of large workloads."
"There have been some issues with licensing, particularly with the increased prices. This has led some companies, including ours, to consider reducing the number of licenses or potentially discontinuing their use of Alteryx."
"They should make the solution user-friendly for nontechnical people by giving specific names to the options."
"I think better visualization would be helpful to this solution."
"More statistics tools: We can use to compare SPSS statistics with some automated advisory."
"They can provide some pre-built tools for predictive analytics instead of us having to build all the tools. It should also be improved from the visualization aspect. It should have better visualization capabilities. There are tools out there that have better visualization capabilities, which Alteryx is lacking currently."
"There could be a bit of improvement related to performance. Sometimes it demands a lot of resources for running it, like memory and search."
"I honestly can't think of anything that needs to be improved."
"Technical support needs some improvement, as they do not respond as quickly as we would like."
"Needs more statistical modelling functions."
"It would be helpful if there was better documentation on how to properly use the solution. A beginner's guide on how to use the various programming functions within the product would be so useful to a lot of people. I found that everything was very confusing at first. Having clear documentation would help alleviate that."
"I'd like to see them use more artificial intelligence. It should be smart enough to do predictions and everything based on what you input."
"IBM SPSS Statistics could improve the visual outputs where you are producing, for example, a graph for a company board of directors, or an advert."
"The solution needs more planning tools and capabilities."
"In some cases, the product takes time to load a large dataset. They could improve this particular area."
"The statistics should be more self-explanatory with detailed automated reports."
"A great product but confusing in some way with regard to the user interface and integration with other tools."
"Many things in the interface look nice, but they aren't of much use to the operator. It already has lots of variables in there."
"I would appreciate improvements in automation and customization options to further streamline processes."
"I think that they should make deep learning models easier."
"It would be helpful to have some tutorials on communicating with Python."
"RapidMiner would be improved with the inclusion of more machine learning algorithms for generating time-series forecasting models."
"The price of this solution should be improved."
"I would like to see more integration capabilities."
