The ease of use in the user interface is the best part of it. The ability to customize some of my streams with R and Python has been very useful to me, I've automated a few things with that.

We have integration where you can write third-party apps. This sort of feature opens it up to being able to do anything you want.

You take two quarters and compare them and this tool is ideal because it gives you a lot of visibility on the before and after.

It scales. I have not run into any challenges where it will not perform.​

It continues to be a very flexible platform, so that it handles R and Python and other types of technology. It seems to be growing with additional open-source movement out there on different platforms.

Regarding visual modeling, it is not the biggest strength of the product, although from what I hear in the latest release it's going to be a lot stronger. That, to me, has always been the biggest flaw in using this. It's very difficult to get good visualization.

The platform that you can deploy it on needs improvement because I think it is Windows only. I do not think it can run off a Red Hat, like the server products. I am pretty sure it is Windows and AIX only.

The time series should be improved.

When you are not using the product, such as during the pandemic where we had worldwide lockdowns, you still have to pay for the licensing.

​I would like better integration into the Weather Company solution. I have raised a couple of concerns about this integration and having more time series capabilities.​

It would be beneficial if the tool would include more well-known machine learning algorithms.

It is very good, but slow. The slowness may be because we have not finalized all the background information in SPSS. It still needs some tweaking.

I understand that it takes some time to incorporate some of the new algorithms that have come out in the last few months, in the literature. For example, there is an algorithm based on how ants search for food. And there are some algorithms that have now been developed to complement rules. So that's one of the things that we need to have incorporated into it.
