The platform organizes workflows visually and efficiently
One of the valuable features of Dataiku is the workflow capability. It allows us to organize a workflow efficiently. The platform has a visual interface, making it much easier for educated professionals to organize their work. This feature is useful because it simplifies tasks and eliminates the need for a data scientist. If you are knowledgeable about AI, you can directly write using primitive tools like Pantera flow, PyTorch, and Scikit-learn. However, Dataiku makes this process much easier.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Dataiku is highly regarded as it is a leader in the Gartner ranking."
"I believe the return on investment looks positive."
"The most valuable feature is the set of visual data preparation tools."
"I rate the overall product as eight out of ten."
"If many teams are collaborating and sharing Jupyter notebooks, it's very useful."
"Our clients can easily drag and drop components and use them on the spot."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it is one tool that can do everything, and you have the ability to very easily push your design to prediction."
"I like the interface, which is probably my favorite part of the solution. It is really user-friendly for an IT person."
"I like the way the product visually shows the data pipeline."
"I found the ease of use of the solution the most valuable. Additionally, other valuable features include: the user interface, power to extract data, compatibility with other technologies (specifically with PS400), and automation of several tasks."
"The most valuable feature is the decision tree creation."
"The technical support is very good."
"The solution is very good for data mining or any mining issues."
"he solution is scalable."
"The solution is able to handle quite large amounts of data beautifully."

Cons

"Although known for Big Data, the processing time to process 1.8 billion records was terribly slow (five days)."
"There is room for improvement in terms of allowing for more code-based features."
"I think it would help if Data Science Studio added some more features and improved the data model."
"We still encounter some integration issues."
"I find that it is a little slow during use. It takes more time than I would expect for operations to complete."
"One of the main challenges was collaboration. Developers typically use GitHub to push and manage code, but integrating GitHub with Dataiku was complicated."
"The license is very expensive."
"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."
"While I don't personally need tutorials, I can't say that it wouldn't be helpful for others to have some to help them navigate and operate the system."
"The product must provide better integration with cloud-native technologies."
"Technical support could be improved."
"The ease of use can be improved. When you are new it seems a bit complex."
"Virtualization could be much better."
"The user interface of the solution needs improvement. It needs to be more visual."
"The initial setup is challenging if doing it for the first time."
"The visualization of the models is not very attractive, so the graphics should be improved."
 

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."
"This solution is for large corporations because not everybody can afford it."
"The solution must improve its licensing models."
"The solution is expensive for an individual, but for an enterprise/institution (purchasing bulk licenses), it is not a high price for the use that will come from it."
