BOSTON, Mass. – April 1, 2015 – RapidMiner, the industry’s easiest-to-use Modern Analytics platform for Big Data, announced today it has been positioned by Forrester Research as a Strong Performer in “The Forrester Wave™: Big Data Predictive Analytics Solutions, Q2 2015”1 report. Predictive analytics represents a key opportunity in today’s business world. However, limiting these insights to just data scientists is shortsighted, preventing the business units within organizations from gaining deeper understanding that can propel them forward. RapidMiner solves this problem by empowering both data scientists and business analysts, aka next-generation data scientists. RapidMiner was cited as a Strong Performer in this new Forrester Research report, which highlights why Big Data predictive analytics is a business game-changer. According to the report, “if organizations don’t use predictions to change the future, then they’re making their data scientists as helpless as Troy’s Cassandra.” Also according to the report, “RapidMiner is a rock-solid enterprise solution with cloud capability. With a platform including more than 1,500 methods across all stages of the predictive analytics life cycle, RapidMiner has the breadth and flexibility that enterprises need to consume data and serve insights across the business.
