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."
"One of the greatest advantages of KNIME is that it can be used by those without any coding experience. those with no coding background can use it."
"I've tried to utilize KNIME to the fullest extent possible to replace Excel."
"Easy to connect with every database: We use queries from SQL, Redshift, Oracle."
"It also has very good fundamental machine learning. It has decision trees, linear regression, and neural nets. It has a lot of text mining facilities as well. It's fairly fully-featured."
"All of the features related to the ETL are fantastic. That includes the connectors to other programs, databases, and the meta node function."
"I was able to apply basic algorithms through just dragging and dropping."
"Stability is excellent. I would give it a nine out of ten."
"Easy to use, simple, with a quick learning curve."
"Oracle Data Mining provides a powerful functionality as it enables users to discover new insights hidden in data."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"Viewing the data on the Dashboard with charts is a great option this tool provides."
"Ability to pull together multiple sources of information."
 

Cons

"We are worried about the performance when it comes to using a lot of data that has many rows and columns."
"I think some of the online training content could be better, although I have been able to find all of the information."
"I would prefer to have more connectivity."
"I think the data visualization part is the area most in need of improvement."
"It's difficult to pinpoint one single feature because KNIME has so many. For starters, it's very easy to learn. You can get started with just a one-hour video. The drag-and-drop interface makes it user-friendly. For example, if you want to read an Excel file, drag the "read Excel file" node from the repository, configure it by specifying the file location, and run it. This gives you a table with all your data."
"The user interface could be a bit better."
"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."
"KNIME could improve when it comes to large data markets."
"One area for product improvement is the user experience, particularly when navigating through screens."
"The performance, scalability and queries should be addressed, as well as the data distribution of certain data techniques."
"Basic capabilities, less professional than would be expected from a company dealing with databases as a core business."
"I would like to see an improvement in the ease of implementing customized data sources and the like."
"Could use some refinement getting things that are not standard cloud applications, but more customized."
"Since a separate Oracle database is needed, the data loading and cleansing the raw data can be a time consuming process."
"Problems in handling huge data sets."
"There are some transactions we have not been able to find through the dashboard."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We're using the free academic license just locally. I went for KNIME because they have a free academic license."
"KNIME is a cheap product. I currently use KNIME's open-source version."
"The client versions are mostly free, and we pay only for the KNIME server version. It's not a cheap solution."
"This is an open-source solution that is free to use."
"Scaling to the on-premises version requires a licensing fee per user that is a bit expensive in comparison to R, Python, and SAS."
"It is expensive to procure the license."
"KNIME is an open-source tool, so it's free to use."
"This is a free open-source solution."
"The solution is priced well."
