Use Cases and Deployment Scope

One of our clients has KNIME as a Data Wrangling and Data Science tool for internal data and process automation. KNIME is surprisingly easy to use and very powerful. You can go from automating the a process that reads data from a database and wrights it into a Excel file to a much more complex solution involving Machine Learning and complex Data Science solutions. I'm extremely happy with KNIME and how it bridges the gap between developers and the business users.
