Let's face it. Data cleaning is always a big hassle, especially if we are short on time and want to deliver crucial data analysis insights to our audience.
But how can we be more efficient in the ETL/ Data Prep process? How can this process be more FUN?
Meet KNIME!
A great tool which comes to our rescue. KNIME allows us to do data preparation / data cleaning in a very appealing drag and drop interface. (No coding experience is required yet it still allows us if we want to use languages like R, Python or Java. So, we can code if we want but don't have to!). The flexibility of KNIME makes that happen.
