Dataiku vs. Posit

Dataiku DSS is very well suited to handle large datasets and projects which requires a huge team to deliver results. This allows users to collaborate with each other while working on individual tasks. The workflow is easily streamlined and every action is backed up, allowing users to revert to specific tasks whenever required. While Dataiku DSS works seamlessly with all types of projects dealing with structured datasets, I haven't come across projects using Dataiku dealing with images/audio signals. But a workaround would be to store the images as vectors and perform the necessary tasks.

In my humble opinion, if you are working on something related to Statistics, RStudio is your go-to tool. But if you are looking for something in Machine Learning, look out for Python. The beauty is that there are packages now by which you can write Python/SQL in R. Cross-platform functionality like such makes RStudio way ahead of its competition. A couple of chinks in RStudio armor are very small and can be considered as nagging just for the sake of argument. Other than completely based on programming language, I couldn't find significant drawbacks to using RStudio. It is one of the best free software available in the market at present.

• Low-code platform.
• Open source version includes most valuable modules.
• User friendly documentation.

• RStudio does an excellent job providing a clean user interface for R or Shiny applications
• RStudio integrates natively with version control software
• Users can program with either R or Python
• RStudio has a command line built in, eliminating the need for a separate program for a REPL

• The visualization feature of flow still has a lot room to improve, when the flow is complex.
• The "non-coding" template/building block for deep learning lack of many important configurable parameters.
• Lack of the unified way to allow applying the "design pattern" on the Python codes (if we want to develop our own module or building blocks.

• Ability to scale across the company is limited based on the users license, cannot share a dashboard to the general view of the company.
• Ability to retain session - not simple method to customize view per user (e.g., once session is ended, the users will return next time to the baseline view).
• Ability to enable communication between multiple users - leave notes, tag other users, or share specific view.

There is no other platform that meets our needs. Even if it was terrible we would still use it but fortunately for us it is a very solid project with a great support team. I hope in the future to expand our use and get more licences as well as upgrade to RStudio workbench but for now we are very happy.

The user experience is very good. Everything feels intuitive and "flows" (sorry excuse the pun) so nicely, and the customization level is also appropriate to the tool. Even as a newer data scientist, it felt easy to use and the explanations/tutorials were very good. The documentation is also at a good level

For someone who learns how to use the software and picks up on the "language" of R, it's very easy to use. For beginners, it can be hard and might require a course, as well as the appropriate statistical training to understand what packages to use and when

RStudio is very available and cheap to use. It needs to be updated every once in a while, but the updates tend to be quick and they do not hinder my ability to make progress. I have not experienced any RStudio outages, and I have used the application quite a bit for a variety of statistical analyses

The amazing part of Dataiku DSS is their customer service. Based on urgency and technical level, you get a reply from the Dataiku engineer when you raise a query. So far, my queries have been pretty complex to solve, so I have received solutions even from the CTO of the company as well, which is why I would describe their customer support as very good.

Since R is trendy among statisticians, you can find lots of help from the data science/ stats communities. If you need help with anything related to RStudio or R, google it or search on StackOverflow, you might easily find the solution that you are looking for.

We did it at the individual level: anyone willing to code in R can use it. No real deployment involved.

Dataiku was selected for me, but I am happy about that. I like Dataiku for the user experience, it feels less code-y and I like to demo things to non technical stakeholders because they can still follow along. When you open some other notebooks, you can see that peoples eyes start to glaze over

RStudio was provided as the most customizable. It was also strictly the most feature-rich as far as enabling our organization to script, run, and make use of R open-source packages in our data analysis workstreams. It also provided some support for python, which was useful when we had R heavy code with some python threaded in. Overall we picked Rstudio for the features it provided for our data analysis needs and the ability to interface with our existing resources.

I think that RStudio scales pretty well based on the size of the datasets I'm using. It has multithreading capabilities unlike some other statistical analysis programs which is very useful in cutting down on time. The format of RStudio's syntax also makes it very easy to replicate regardless off the scale of the analysis and data set

• So far it has had a positive impact. Multiple departments are coming to us with their business problems.
• I can't specifically say about ROI as I'm a developer, though I have heard this solution is economical compared to other AI/ML enterprise tools.
• By using this tool, my client has let go of software that was used earlier, and we have created a simpler framework to replace that software.

• Using it for data science in a very big and old company, the most positive impact, from my point of view, has been the ability of spreading data culture across the group. Shortening the path from data to value.
• Still it's hard to quantify economic benefits, we are struggling and it's a great point of attention, since splitting out the contribution of the single aspects of a project (and getting the RStudio pie) is complicated.
• What is sure is that, in the long run, RStudio is boosting productivity and making the process in which is embedded more efficient (cost reduction).
