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

"Dataiku has positively impacted my organization since we use it majorly for our day-to-day work, and it is very helpful in creating and managing ETL pipelines to create a project flow, making it easy to go back to any step and then make edits if some changes occur."
"Cloud-based process run helps in not keeping the systems on while processes are running."
"Technical support is really, really good."
"Compared to Informatica, this tool is extremely easy with its GUI-based functionality and large compatibility with various data sources, and maintenance processes are much more automated than ever, with fewer errors."
"I believe the return on investment looks positive."
"The advantage is that you can focus on machine learning while having access to what they call 'recipes.' These recipes allow me to preprocess and prepare data without writing any code."
"Using Dataiku has meant that we spend less time on preparing and cleaning data, and we spend less time on blending models together, ultimately meaning that we can spend more time modeling."
"I rate the overall product as eight out of ten."
"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."
"SAP Predictive Analytics is better suited for business users because it hides the complexity of the model, whereas Microsoft Azure Machine Learning provides a lot more flexibility for technical professionals to tweak the model."
"I have found that the solution is very stable."
"We always purchase SAP support because it is very good."
 

Cons

"The interface for the web app can be a bit difficult. It needs to have better capabilities, at least for developers who like to code."
"There is room for improvement in terms of allowing for more code-based features."
"The license is very expensive. It would be great to have an intermediate license for basic treatments that do not require extensive experience."
"There were stability issues: 1) SQL operations, such as partitioning, had bugs and showed wrong results. 2) Due to server downtime, scheduled processes used to fail. 3) Access to project folders was compromised (privacy issue) with wrong people getting access to confidential project folders."
"In terms of enhancing collaboration within my team, I would not say Dataiku is the best one because it's so expensive."
"I think the pricing and licensing of Dataiku is a bit expensive; it could be improved further, and I think they should have a different kind of licensing model as well."
"I would like to have better exclusion of data capability."
"Server up-time needs to be improved. Also, query engines like Spark and Hive need to be more stable."
"This solution works for acquired data but not live, real-time data."
"The license fee appears to be prohibitively expensive and overly secretive, leading our clients to opt for cloud-based solutions that only charge for data storage and processing time."
 

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."
"The pricing is reasonable"
"A free trial version is available for testing out this solution."
