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

"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."
"Easy to use, simple, with a quick learning curve."
"Oracle is number one in the world for security, safety, and privacy."
"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."
"The dashboard interface is intuitive and the user is able to interact with it to receive good results from the analytic."
"When needed, we will work closely with Oracle support and implement their workaround in our application."
"Ability to pull together multiple sources of information."
"Viewing the data on the Dashboard with charts is a great option this tool provides."
"If they want their task done faster, and they do not have enough coding expertise, this is definitely an excellent solution to choose from."
"In Weka, anyone can access the program without being a programmer, which is a good feature since the entry cost is very low."
"But Weka helped me with this analysis in an easy way."
"I mainly use this solution for the regression tree, and for its association rules. I run these two methodologies for Weka."
"I think Weka is definitely a good investment, that is why we still use it."
"Using Weka has positively impacted my studies and projects because it has saved my time firstly."
"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."
"I like the machine algorithm for clustering systems. Weka has larger capabilities. There are multiple algorithms that can be used for clustering. It depends upon the user requirements. For clustering, I've used DBSCAN, whereas for supervised learning, I've used AVM and RFT."
 

Cons

"Basic capabilities, less professional than would be expected from a company dealing with databases as a core business."
"It is not a really easy product to use, so you have to do a lot of configuration."
"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."
"Could use some refinement getting things that are not standard cloud applications, but more customized."
"One area for product improvement is the user experience, particularly when navigating through screens."
"I would like to see an improvement in the ease of implementing customized data sources and the like."
"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."
"For production, it's not the best option."
"Within the basic Weka tool, I don't see many tools that are available where we can analyze and visualize the data that well."
"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 solution doesn’t really have very good technical support."
"In terms of scalability, I think Weka is not prepared to handle a large number of users."
"Weka is a little complicated and not necessarily suited for users who aren't skilled and experienced in data science."
"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."
 

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."
"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."
