On this page we are showcasing the main features of our 100% vendor-independent BI & Analytics survey about the software vendor DataRobot and its product portfolio (such as DataRobot Artificial Intelligence, DataRobot Core and DataRobot AutoML). DataRobot BI & Analytics scores better in our study than Hitachi but slightly worse than Infor. Of all the categories in our research, DataRobot has the best performance in artificial intelligence and has the worst score in multidimensional models. We have been able to establish this objectively. Within the context of BI & Analytics, we have put together the main advantages and disadvantages of DataRobot platform, and listed them by theme (BI, Big Data, data analytics, AI and data science). We also point out the key functionalities of the software products such as DataRobot Artificial Intelligence, DataRobot Core and DataRobot AutoML et cetera.

How does DataRobot BI & Analytics score on different parts?

In our survey we also judged all relevant products of DataRobot software. More than 720 evaluation criteria were examined. The bar chart below illustrates the strengths and weaknesses of DataRobot platform, in general terms. Please note that Passionned Group is 100% independent of the suppliers in our guide. We do not sell licenses, we do not make deals or have any relationship with the vendor. Among other things, we help and advise companies in the proper selection of BI tooling.

What are the licensing costs of DataRobot Artificial Intelligence, DataRobot Core and DataRobot AutoML?

It is difficult to determine exactly what a license of DataRobot Artificial Intelligence, DataRobot Core and DataRobot AutoML costs because it depends on the country, the number of users (or the number of CPUs in the case of server software), the connectors to data sources, and at what point in the year you request a quote. If you do this a few weeks before the end of DataRobot’s fiscal quarter, you may be in for a decent discount. In addition, nowadays it is recommended running the software in the cloud. You then only pay for what you actually use in resources. The purchase cost of DataRobot Artificial Intelligence, DataRobot Core and DataRobot AutoML may not be the most important costs, but maintenance and support do show up in your budget every year.
