Good prediction capability for marketing purposes, although it needs to be more flexible
I found it very hard to change the algorithm that is used for prediction and I think that this solution can be more flexible. It looks like more of a black box in some cases and there are few ways to intervene and specify actions. Using IBM Predictive Analytics requires more skill, resources, and training than some other solutions. In the next release of this solution, I would like to see better integration with business solutions so that the data can be more easily accessed.

A no-code tool that helps to build machine learning models
One challenge I encountered while implementing RapidMiner was the lack of documentation. Since there aren't as many users, finding resources to learn the tool was initially difficult. To overcome this hurdle, I believe RapidMiner could improve by providing more tutorials tailored for new users. I haven't explored the tool's latest version, so I'm unaware of the current features. However, I think it would be beneficial if they could enhance capabilities related to deep neural networks, provide better support for generating UI, and allow for importing and utilizing large language models.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature is the predictive capability in marketing use cases."
"The solution is stable."
"What I like about RapidMiner is its all-in-one nature, which allows me to prepare, extract, transform, and load data within the same tool."
"The documentation for this solution is very good, where each operator is explained with how to use it."
"The data science, collaboration, and IDN are very, very strong."
"RapidMiner for Windows is an excellent graphical tool for data science."
"RapidMiner is a no-code machine learning tool. I can install it on my local machine and work with smaller datasets. It can also connect to databases, allowing me to build models directly on the data stored there. RapidMiner offers a wider range of operators than other tools like Dataiku, making it a better option for my needs."
"The solution is very intuitive and powerful."
"The GUI capabilities of the solution are excellent. Their Auto ML model provides for even non-coder data scientists to deploy a model."
 

Cons

"Using IBM Predictive Analytics requires more skill, resources, and training than some other solutions."
"The product must provide data-cleaning features."
"I would like to see more integration capabilities."
"Many things in the interface look nice, but they aren't of much use to the operator. It already has lots of variables in there."
"I think that they should make deep learning models easier."
"RapidMiner would be improved with the inclusion of more machine learning algorithms for generating time-series forecasting models."
"I would appreciate improvements in automation and customization options to further streamline processes."
"The price of this solution should be improved."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"For the university, the cost of the solution is free for the students and teachers."
"The client only has to pay the licensing costs. There are not any maintenance or hidden costs in addition to the license."
"I used an educational license for this solution, which is available free of charge."
"I'm not fully aware of RapidMiner's price because we had licenses provided, but from my analysis, it's moderately priced, not too high or too low. It's worth the investment."
"Although we don't pay licensing fees because it is being used within the university, my understanding is that the cost is between $5,000 and $10,000 USD per year."
