    Unlike Aginity, WPS Analytics has SAS and R language variations, which are hectic to use.

    Coginiti (formerly Aginity)
    Aginity is able to track productivity which has been helping us be able to determine areas that need improvement. we have found agility very user-friendly in terms of ease of scalability. moreover, its ability to reuse SQL has saved us a lot of time because we do not have to re-code SQL.

    WPS Analytics allowed our company's business users to keep using their existing programs while getting similar results with much less learning time. It's a great accomplishment when software for business users is changed—excellent relationships with providers and other salespeople. As a SAS user, I needed an interpreter for the SAS language, and WPS has more packages and a lower price than any other company I could find, so I decided to go with
    it.

    Cons
    Coginiti (formerly Aginity)
    • For one, I don't like how the parenthesis are automatically created as a set. Often times I only need to type one part of the parenthesis, but it creates a set of ( and ), forcing me to delete them because I didn't need the other half at where my cursor was. Same goes with any other sort of characters, such as ' '. I understand that it's suppose to be smart, but more often than not, it's causing more inconvenience and wasting more time, than actually saving time simply because it types an extra ) or ' for me.
    • The error message and the log. I would think there probably is a log somewhere, but the fact that I've been using Aginity for close to a year now, and I still haven't found something similar to a log, is saying something about this feature. A log is like a standard thing nowadays, for running codes, to check against what has happened with the code, and for debugging what you have done wrong within the code. It also contains error messages, and help you troubleshoot with a clearer picture. The error message display current is very small and hard to read, sometimes the error message itself is not as easy to understand either. I use SAS on a daily basis as well, I feel like SAS has done a way better job on this issue, than Aginity.

    • Currently, I barely encounter challenges when using WPS Analytics although I don't use it on a daily basis. There's no functionality or feature that needs more improvement.

    Aginity offers the best tools for data research, which are easy to use and customize. Unlike Aginity, AdvancedMiner wasn't only hard to deploy but also was highly-priced.

    I use a lot of data discovery and visualization tools at workstations to help me gain deep insights into data. WPS Analytics doesn't vary much from all the DVD tools that I have listed, I always go for the best.

    Return on Investment
    Coginiti (formerly Aginity)
    • The tool helped us to implement all Supply Chain and Retail data into the DWH
    • The tool allowed us to control ETL and reporting access, monitor them, and prioritize user's access
    • If you do not use the tool in the correct way, the risk is to delete some business information

    • Using machine learning and natural language to analyze data saves time and effort.
    • Standard reporting and business intelligence help us reduce workload and make data-driven decisions.
    • Drag-and-drop workflow saves time when different languages like SQL and SAS make it easier to code and prepare data.
