Overall Satisfaction with DataRobot

Acting as a credit broker, I use DataRobot to allow me to rapidly build and deploy machine learning models to predict the likelihood that a loan application will be accepted by a lender; that the consumer will engage with the offer; that the consumer and lender will agree terms and a loan will be funded. Identifying populations with a low probability allows me to reduce costs to lenders in scoring loan applications; and improves the earnings per referral that our partners use to measure our performance.
  • Automated machine learning
  • Measuring feature impacts and effects
  • Producing live probability scores
  • Error notification - it can be challenging to identify the cause of errors
  • Exporting data from the GUI is not possible
  • Complicated commercials which regularly change
  • We have been able to cut costs by not buying leads that we will not be able to sell on
  • We have been able to deploy loan eligibility reporting which brought in new business
  • We have been able to improve the performance of our credit providers and our partners which has helped to retain business
Using DataRobot to manage the end-to-end AI process has led to significant time savings due to being able to completely automate all interactions with the DataRobot process via Python.
We were already using a trial, so the move from trial to full was instantaneous.
As a trailblazer, DataRobot is a more polished platform

Did implementation of DataRobot go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy DataRobot again?

DataRobot is great when you have a structured flat dataset and want to predict either regression or categorization. It is not as well matured in dealing with nonstructured data, images, audio recordings, etc. It is great if you can define your features outside of the software, but it is not possible to make changes to the data once you have uploaded, including performing calculations on the data (e.g. adding two features together).
