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.

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.

Alternatives Considered
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.

Return on Investment
  • Reduction in operational costs since no data scientists are involved.
  • Time and effort have been reduced when analyzing data by using machine learning capabilities and natural language.
  • We have reduced time to value by bridging data processing to taking actions gap.

  • Given its open source status, only cost is the learning curve, which is minimal compared to time savings for data exploration.
  • Platform also ease tracking of data processing workflow, unlike Excel.
  • Build-in data visualizations covers many use cases with minimal customization; time saver.
