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.

Data mining projects have become faster and visualization now guides our pattern discovery
Weka can be improved in some areas. As a one-year user, I can share my experiences. I have tried installing other packages into Weka using the inbuilt package manager or adding modern algorithms that I wish to apply to my data sets or data processing. I think Weka needs to improve in that and also in integrating Python into Weka, which would help users much more. I chose eight out of ten because we need improvements in Weka, such as installing inbuilt packages. Weka uses skips such as N+2 or N+4 and eight-node, which makes sense basically, but I think it should improve in the package attribute, such as configuring Python easily and adding modern algorithms into Weka more easily.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The dashboard interface is intuitive and the user is able to interact with it to receive good results from the analytic."
"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."
"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."
"Easy to use, simple, with a quick learning curve."
"When needed, we will work closely with Oracle support and implement their workaround in our application."
"One of the valuable features is the ability to pull together multiple sources of information and the tools are easy to use which is the main factor."
"Oracle is number one in the world for security, safety, and privacy."
"Viewing the data on the Dashboard with charts is a great option this tool provides."
"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 a very easy to use Data Mining solution, great for learning and for doing small experiments before exploring the data deeper, with a large number and diversity of algorithms that make it an excellent solution for rapid testing."
"Weka is just much better for the classification path and clustering path; if you are going with some predictions that a procedure recalls, it's better than any other tool like R Programming and Python."
"Weka is very easy to use, is very complete, and provides many benefits to the end user."
"It is a stable product."
"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."
"There are many options where you can fill all of the data pre-processing options that you can implement when you're importing the data. You can also normalize the data and standardize it in an easier way."
 

Cons

"I would like to see an improvement in the ease of implementing customized data sources and the like."
"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."
"One area for product improvement is the user experience, particularly when navigating through screens."
"Problems in handling huge data sets."
"There are some transactions we have not been able to find through the dashboard."
"There are some transactions we have not been able to find through the dashboard."
"The performance, scalability and queries should be addressed, as well as the data distribution of certain data techniques."
"While it might offer insights for basic warehouse tasks, it falls short of deeper understanding and results."
"As students, if we use the largest data sets, I think Weka struggles with large data sets imported into it."
"With Python and R, you can do anything — you have that confidence, but with Weka, I don't have that confidence."
"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."
"For production, it's not the best option."
"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."
"The solution doesn’t really have very good technical support."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is priced well."
"The solution is free and open-source."
"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."
"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."
