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.

Open source, good for basic data mining use cases except for the visualization results
I haven't found it particularly useful. It lacks state-of-the-art algorithms and impressive outcomes. While it might offer insights for basic warehouse tasks, it falls short of deeper understanding and results. Moreover, a new user interface would be great, especially for beginners. Something that guides them through the available tools and helps them achieve their goals. I haven't seen anything like that myself, though maybe it's there and I missed it.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Easy to use, simple, with a quick learning curve."
"Ability to pull together multiple sources of information."
"The dashboard interface is intuitive and the user is able to interact with it to receive good results from the analytic."
"Oracle Advanced Analytics effectively prevents threats and helps maintain a secure network environment."
"Viewing the data on the Dashboard with charts is a great option this tool provides."
"Oracle Data Mining provides a powerful functionality as it enables users to discover new insights hidden in data."
"When needed, we will work closely with Oracle support and implement their workaround in our application."
"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."
"Weka eliminates the need for coding, allowing you to easily set parameters and complete the majority of the machine learning task with just a few clicks."
"In Weka, anyone can access the program without being a programmer, which is a good feature since the entry cost is very low."
"Weka's best features are its user-friendly graphic interface interpretation of data sets and the ease of analyzing data."
"Weka is a very nice tool, it needs very small requirements. If I want to implement something in Python, I need a lot of memory and space but Weka is very lightweight. Anyone can implement any kind of algorithm, and we can show the results immediately to the client using the one-page feature. The client always wants to know the story. They want the result."
"It doesn’t cost anything to use the product."
"The interface is very good, and the algorithms are the very best."
"I mainly use this solution for the regression tree, and for its association rules. I run these two methodologies for Weka."
"With clustering, if it's a yes, it's a yes, if it's a no, it's a no. It gives you a 100% level of accuracy of a model that has been trained, and that is in most cases, usually misleading. Classification is highly valuable when done as opposed to clustering."
 

Cons

"One area for product improvement is the user experience, particularly when navigating through screens."
"Basic capabilities, less professional than would be expected from a company dealing with databases as a core business."
"The performance, scalability and queries should be addressed, as well as the data distribution of certain data techniques."
"Problems in handling huge data sets."
"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."
"There are some transactions we have not been able to find through the dashboard."
"The filter section lacks some specific transformation tools. If you want to change a variable from a numeric variable to a categorical variable, you don't have a feature that can enable you to change a variable from a numeric variable to a categorical variable."
"Within the basic Weka tool, I don't see many tools that are available where we can analyze and visualize the data that well."
"While it might offer insights for basic warehouse tasks, it falls short of deeper understanding and results."
"If there are a lot more lines of code, then we should use another language."
"Scalability and performance are the main aspect of improvement in Weka, since it has the main Java limitations, regarding the JVM."
"The product is good, but I would like it to work with big data. I know it has a Spark integration they could use to do analysis in clusters, but it's not so clear how to use it."
"If you have one missing value in your dataset and this missing value belongs to a specific attribute and the attribute is a numeric attribute and there is only one missing data, whenever you import this data, the problem is that Weka cannot understand that this is a numeric field. It converts everything into a string, and there is no way to convert the string into numerical math. It's really very complicated."
"A few people said it became slow after a while."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is priced well."
"As far as I know, Weka is a freeware tool, and I am not aware if they have an online solution or if it is a commercial product."
"Currently, I am using an open-source version so I don't know much about the price of this solution."
"We use the free version now. My faculty is very small."
"The solution is free and open-source."
