This URL-based application is beneficial for creating a dashboard as an output of the ML models produced by business users. Basic and some of the complex preprocessing of the data, like cleaning, manipulation, and validation, can also be done on the same interface page itself. Along with Models, Regular data visualization of the data can also be performed. And can be shared via URL for another business user to view the dashboard without any pre-installation or any sort Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
This application is primarily ideal only for the structured data source. Only a limited range of model creations, like linear and logistic regression, NN, and Forest, is available. Even though this application combines ETL, data analytics and visualization, extensive data cleaning is not possible in the same interface, as it is suitable only for structured data.
