Overall Satisfaction with DataRobot

We use the tool for student success. We make various predictive models for predicting the graduation and retention of our students. We use the predictions to identify at-risk students and refer them to advisors or success coaches for help. For example, if students have less than a 60% probability of graduating within four years based on the predictive model, they will get referred to an advisor for further help. During our use of the tool, we have almost doubled our 4-year graduation rate.

Pros

  • Process large amounts of data quickly.
  • Provides very accurate predictions.
  • It provides an easy way to compare the predictive value of each of the features of the model.
  • Has a good text analysis tool.

Cons

  • Further improvements to their text analysis tool, to be more like the Qualtrics text analysis tool, would be a great addition. Qualtrics has templates built into their text analysis tool for customer service, quality control, etc, and will automatically slot your text responses into categories associated with certain sub areas of those larger categories.
  • More accurate forecasting.
  • Eliminated the need for external vendors for data analysis.
  • Reduce the time required to make the predictive models.
  • Increased our predictive analysis productivity.
  • Freed up staff time to dedicate to other projects.
DataRobot provided the perfect balance of features and price points. The other tools we tried were very expensive and provided extra things that we really didn't need. Some of the other tools also required you to host them on a server at your institution or pay for their cloud service in addition to getting the software. This added to the expense without adding any additional functionality.

DataRobot is a very robust and easy-to-use tool. It can be used for practically anything. It works best in cases where you have powerful predictors that are not highly correlated with each other, and you are looking to predict a single outcome variable. If you are trying to predict multiple variables at the same time, you will have to create separate models for each one. While it does provide information about the effectiveness of each predictor, it will not give you a detailed analysis of the interactions between your variables. However, it will let you know if some variables are redundant so they can be removed.
