Data Discovery and Visualization
Comparison of Data Discovery and Visualization features of Product A and Product B
For now coders, I would emphasize them to use drag and drop functionality. Otherwise, WPS Analytics is a robust tool for app development and data visualization that offers multiple languages such as SAS, SQL, R, and Python.
I would recommend it because it's an amazing tool for different levels of users. From Business Analysts to Data Scientists to Managers, various employees can make use of this tool to make data-driven decisions. I'm not sure about where it would be less appropriate as I'm using it as Data Scientist and so far it pretty much caters to my need.
As I have described earlier, the intuitiveness of this tool makes it great as well as the variety of users that can use this tool. Also, the plugins available in their repository provide solutions to various data science problems.
The open source user community is friendly, helpful, and responsive, at times even outdoing commercial software vendors. Documentation is also top notch, and usually resolves issues without the need for human interactions. Great product design, with a focus on user experience, also makes platform use intuitive, thus reducing the need for explicit support.
To better understand the data I work with, I extensively use the data discovery and visualization tools available on my workstations, and I always go for the best. Unfortunately, some other tools does not offer any tutorials for the features, making it difficult and time-consuming to analyze data, mainly after it has been implemented. In addition to videos and articles, WPS Analytics provides comprehensive tutorials for each feature.
Strictly for Data Science operations, Anaconda can be considered as a subset of Dataiku DSS. While Anaconda supports Python and R programming languages, Dataiku also provides this facility, but also provides GUI to creates models with just a click of a button. This provides the flexibility to users who do not wish to alter the model hyperparameters in greater depths. Writing codes to extract meaningful data is time consuming compared to Dataiku's ability to perform feature engineering and data transformation through click of a button.
