It emphasizes its platform’s ease of use, time to value, composability and support for collaboration between various roles in order to deliver AI solutions. The company ranks in the middle of the pack for both vision and execution on the Magic Quadrant.

Strength: Dataiku customers have praised its customer support. The company offers concrete SLAs for all customers at no additional cost based on classification of errors.
