DataRobot vs. IBM SPSS Modeler

DataRobot can be used for risk assessment, such as predicting the likelihood of loan default. It can handle both classification and regression tasks effectively. It relies on historical data for model training. If you have limited historical data or the data quality is poor, it may not be the best choice as it requires a sufficient amount of high-quality data for accurate model building.

Modeler is well suited for understanding consumer data. The ability to create a prediction and then to understand what is driving that prediction is strong in Modeler. Modeler is closely aligned with the CRISP-DM data mining approach meaning it is not just the 'doing' but also the theoretical background behind the development of data mining models.

• The breadth of models available to use is helpful and allows much more analytical power than programming them all yourself.
• The built-in variable diagnostics are helpful when testing large variable sets to see which perform the best.
• Many of the adjustments on the models are easy to use/it's easy to re-run and kick off new models as you want to try new things.

• A very nice and easy to use interface.
• A great variety of analytics, from statistical calculation to data validation and predictive statistics.
• Has a steep learning curve.

• 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.

• Some Analyses aren't there out of the box but can be added through open languages like R and Python.
• Graphs could be better.
• Unable to read data stored in OLAP databases

DataRobot presents a machine-learning platform designed by data scientists from an array of backgrounds, to construct and develop precise predictive modeling in a fraction of the time previously taken. The tech invloved addresses the critical shortage of data scientists by changing the speed and economics of predictive analytics. DataRobot utilizes parallel processing to evaluate models in R, Python, Spark MLlib, H2O and other open source databases. It searches for possible permutations and algorithms, features, transformation, processes, steps and tuning to yield the best models for the dataset and predictive goal.

As I am writing this report I am participating with Datarobot Engineers in an complex environment and we have their whole support. We are in Mexico and is not common to have this commitment from companies without expensive contract services. Installing is on premise and the client does not want us to take control and they, the client, is also limited because of internal IT regulations ,,, soo we are just doing magic and everybody is committed.

I've done machine learning through python before, however having to code and test each model individually was very time consuming and required a lot of expertise. The data Robot approach, is an excellent way of getting to a well placed starting point. You can then pick up the model from there and fine tune further if you need.

We additionally use SAS Data Miner as a toolkit. Compared to SAS Data Miner, the SPSS Modeler is a good competitor. SAS probably is more integrated in the market for a visual-based code for data science activities. However, I don't think it offers anything better than SPSS, and I really like several of the helpful components for usability for SPSS like peaks into nodes.
