Likelihood to Recommend	Diffbot No answers on this topic	Import.io We used Connotate as a data mining tool for web research as a teaching assistant for the College of Information Sciences and Technology. You could train agents to automatically gather data in a variety of ways, which I used in my own research. Connotate's analysis was not as useful to me as the data itself, because we were using it to inform us of trends rather than make decisions. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
