Analytics features have improved our reporting workflows and support data‑driven decisions
The feature is called Oracle R Enterprise, and I have not worked with it. I have not used Oracle Enterprise. I am hearing about it for the first time. We have not used machine learning. We do not work with it for creating any data models from machine learning. My overall rating for this product is 8.

High-speed shared storage has accelerated AI research workflows and supports massive job queues
The best features Weka offers are high speed, exceptional performance, and reliability. It is probably the best file system I have ever used. These features have helped my workflows and users by enabling us to train and perform inferencing of AI workflows of proteins against target diseases, which allows us to run jobs in approximately half the time that we would with slower storage. Weka is always available, incredibly reliable, and backed up, so we could not do this work without it. Additionally, Weka is incredibly easy to use because there is a web UI that allows us to create and resize file systems at will, making different directory structures available to different users at any given time, and the speed is exceptional. Weka has positively impacted my organization because we previously had NFS, which would take down the cluster when under high load. Now we have no concerns about highly loaded multiple thousands of jobs running simultaneously against this file system. The system handles it without any issues. To share more about the scale, we have anywhere between 1,000 to 10,000 jobs in the queue at any given time, and the system handles it without any problems. Our volumes are approximately half a petabyte on one system and about a third of a petabyte on another system for various storage uses, and it enables all our work to go efficiently.

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."
"When it comes to data mining, I am acquainted with most or all of the Oracle tools and have had a positive experience with them."
"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."
"Ability to pull together multiple sources of information."
"Oracle Data Mining provides a powerful functionality as it enables users to discover new insights hidden in data."
"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."
"I think Weka is definitely a good investment, that is why we still use it."
"In Weka, anyone can access the program without being a programmer, which is a good feature since the entry cost is very low."
"If they want their task done faster, and they do not have enough coding expertise, this is definitely an excellent solution to choose from."
"My main recommendation is that if you want artificial intelligence, or machine learning, go for an easy and quick tool like Weka, otherwise, any language will have a more expensive entry cost."
"Weka is very easy to use, is very complete, and provides many benefits to the end user."
"It’s pretty straightforward, it's user-friendly, it’s free, and with YouTube videos, online guides, and e-books on machine learning using Weka, you can quickly learn to use its good interface for data visualization, filtering, and creating different scenarios and instances."
"But Weka helped me with this analysis in an easy way."
"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."
 

Cons

"It is not a really easy product to use, so you have to do a lot of configuration."
"Basic capabilities, less professional than would be expected from a company dealing with databases as a core business."
"I would like to see an improvement in the ease of implementing customized data sources and the like."
"Problems in handling huge data sets."
"The performance, scalability and queries should be addressed, as well as the data distribution of certain data techniques."
"Since a separate Oracle database is needed, the data loading and cleansing the raw data can be a time consuming process."
"One area for product improvement is the user experience, particularly when navigating through screens."
"There are some transactions we have not been able to find through the dashboard."
"The visualization of Weka is subpar and could improve. Machine learning and visualization do not work well together. For example, we want to know how we can we delete empty cells or how can we fill in the empty cells without cleaning the data system and putting it together."
"I'm not sure if it's reliable. It's a little difficult to get results, especially if you are on some other programs like Tableau."
"A few people said it became slow after a while."
"With Python and R, you can do anything — you have that confidence, but with Weka, I don't have that confidence."
"I believe is there are a few newer algorithms that are not present in the Weka libraries. Whereas, for example, if I want to have a solution that involves deep learning, so I don't think that Weka has that capability. So in that case I have to use Python for ... predict any algorithms based on deep learning."
"Weka is not horizontally scalable. If I had to run a large dataset over Weka I would have to have a very large usage."
"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."
"Not particularly user friendly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is priced well."
"The solution is free and open-source."
"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."
"We use the free version now. My faculty is very small."
"Currently, I am using an open-source version so I don't know much about the price of this solution."
