Overall Satisfaction with DataRobot

We use DataRobot for predictive analytics. We predict student outcomes (to maximize), student exits (to minimize), and such key business priorities based on their previous performance, socio-economic attributes, behavior, wellbeing, school attributes, community attributes, etc. Over 50 input variables in one regression model. Similarly, over 20 variables in another logistic regression model. Use cases are emerging in technology and facilities areas too.
  • Validated algorithms with a wide, composite range
  • Transparent analysis
  • Excellent documentation
  • User friendly, interactive visualisations
  • Connection to Tableau
  • Dark background interface is harder to read
  • Better explainability of features - feature importance vs feature impact etc.
  • Need for an App for what- if analysis
  • improving performance e.g. student outcomes
  • early warning of undesired outcomes e.g. student exits
  • predicting human and machine behaviors in a range of settings using past data
  • improving service culture
The short answer is YES. We have only one AI platform for all business needs which is DataRobot, of course. We really do not need any other AI tool at this time. The end users are managers and executives at this time. We want to democratize AI with DR App when available.
Within 3 months we had two use cases up and running. We have popularized AI and AML - thanks to DataRobot - across all our schools. The Principals love predictive analytics.
Has several limitations in terms of model development and documentation.

Yes

Did implementation of DataRobot go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy DataRobot again?

Yes

Having DataRobot is like having 100 Data Scientists quietly humming away behind my screen. And, the great thing is these 100 Data Scientists seldom argue and actually agree !! "They" are very efficient too:) Automated Machine Learning is here to stay - it's like outsourcing analytical knowledge and insourcing business knowledge - the best of both worlds for a humble school system with over 43000 students.
