Pros
"The data science, collaboration, and IDN are very, very strong.""The most valuable feature of RapidMiner is that it is code free.

It has a utility to automatically launch a series of models and show the comparisons. When finished with the comparisons you can select the best one, and deploy it automatically.""RapidMiner for Windows is an excellent graphical tool for data science.""The documentation for this solution is very good, where each operator is explained with how to use it.""The GUI capabilities of the solution are excellent. Their Auto ML model provides for even non-coder data scientists to deploy a model.""The solution is stable.""The most valuable feature is what the product sets out to do, which is extracting information and data.""The most valuable feature of RapidMiner is that it can read a large number of file formats including CSV, Excel, and in particular, SPSS."

Cons
"RapidMiner isn't cheap. It's a complete solution, but it's costly.""I would like to see more integration capabilities.""RapidMiner can improve deep learning by enhancing the features.""I would appreciate improvements in automation and customization options to further streamline processes.""The visual interface could use something like the-drag-and-drop features which other products already support. Some additional features can make RapidMiner a better tool and maybe more competitive.""The price of this solution should be improved.""If they could include video tutorials, people would find that quite helpful.""RapidMiner would be improved with the inclusion of more machine learning algorithms for generating time-series forecasting models."

More RapidMiner Cons →

"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 solution needs an easier interface for the user. The user experience isn't so easy for our clients.""The visualization of the models is not very attractive, so the graphics should be improved.""Virtualization could be much better.""The product must provide better integration with cloud-native technologies.""Technical support could be improved.""The solution is very stable, but we do have some problems with discrepancies involving SAS not matching with the latest Java versions. It's not stable in cases where SAS tries to run on a different version because SAS doesn't connect with the latest Java update. Once a month we need to restart systems from scratch."
