Overall Satisfaction with Gephi
We used Gephi as the last phase of our big data analysis pipeline. After generating the desired metrics with Hadoop, and using a Java interface we could generate fully customized, sophisticated and intuitive pictures of our results, so that our customer could make sense of the huge complexity of the problem and the proposed solution to improve their business.
- Clustering
- Visualization
- Customization
- Documentation on how to use Gephi as a library is not enough.
- Performance of algorithms might be improved by making use of GPU power in recent computers.
- Graphviz
The interactivity in Gephi and the quality of the output figures are impressive. However, the selling point was the fact that we were able to link Gephi into our pipeline using Java's interface. Other products were less customizable and lacking of the sophistication Gephi provided without too much pain during the liking process.
