Pros
"Overall KNIME serves its purpose and does a good job.""The solution is good for teaching, since there is no need to code.""KNIME is quite scalable, which is one of the most important features that we found.""I've tried to utilize KNIME to the fullest extent possible to replace Excel.""We leverage KNIME flexibility in order to query data from our database and manipulate them for any ad-hoc business case, before presenting results to stakeholders.""It can handle an unlimited amount of data, which is the advantage of using Knime.""Automation is most valuable. It allows me to automatically download information from different sources, and once I create a workflow, I can apply it anytime I want. So, there is efficiency at the same time.""What I like most about KNIME is that it's user-friendly. It's a low-code, no-code tool, so students don't need coding knowledge. You can make use of different kinds of nodes. KNIME even has a good description of each node."

"Provides ease of formulating a solution based on SQL-like queries.""It has been fantastic for running complete data sets (no sampling required).""nPath has made journey/path analysis much easier."

Cons
"In the last update, KNIME started hiding a lot of the nodes. It doesn't mean hiding, but you need to know what you're looking for. Before that, you had just a tree that you could click, and you could get an overview of what kind of nodes do I have. Right now, it's like you need to know which node you need, and then you can start typing, but it's actually more difficult to find them.""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.""The documentation needs a proper rework. ​""The documentation is lacking and it could be better.""It needs more examples, use cases, and MOOC to learn, especially with respect to the algorithms and how to practically create a flow from end-to-end.""They should look at other vendors like Alteryx that are more user friendly and modern.""​The data visualization part is the area most in need of improvement.""The ability to handle large amounts of data and performance in processing need to be improved."

More KNIME Cons →

"We have struggled with uptime. Some of the features need to be updated.""I would like to see more/better documentation. They also need to enhance analytic/data science algorithms.""I have found some problems with the figures depicted on graphs and figures shown, like scores which could not be negative but which were depicted as such."

    Questions from the Community
    Top Answer:Since KNIME is a no-code platform, it is easy to work with.
    Top Answer:We're using the free academic license just locally. I went for KNIME because they have a free academic license. And to be honest, I never bothered to check the prices.
    Top Answer:KNIME is not good at visualization. I would like to see NLQ (Natural language query) and automated visualizations added to KNIME.

    Reviews from Real Users

    Below are some reviews and helpful feedback written by PeerSpot users currently using the KNIME solution.

    An Emeritus Professor at a university says, “It can read many different file formats. It can very easily tidy up your data, deleting blank rows, and deleting rows where certain columns are missing. It allows you to make lots of changes internally, which you do using JavaScript to put in the conditional. 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.”

    Benedikt S., CEO at SMH - Schwaiger Management Holding GmbH, explains, “All of the features related to the ETL are fantastic. That includes the connectors to other programs, databases, and the meta node function. Technical support has been extremely responsive so far. The solution has a very strong and supportive community that shares information and helps each other troubleshoot. The solution is very stable. The initial setup is pretty simple and straightforward.”

    Piotr Ś., Test Engineer at ProData Consult, says, “What I like the most is that it works almost out of the box with Random Forest and other Forest nodes.”
