The short version
- Each has a real cost: Dataiku visual recipes are stored as Dataiku's own configuration and do not export as runnable SQL or Python, so a Flow with hundreds of visual steps has to be rebuilt from scratch if the organisation ever leaves, and that cost rises with every project added.; Gumloop pro plan at $37/month may be limiting for enterprises considering spending caps
- They diverge on capability: Dataiku covers Visual Flow, Gumloop covers No-code agent builder.
- Prices and features above were last checked on 30 August 2026.

Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Dataiku
- Visual recipes are stored as Dataiku's own configuration and do not export as runnable SQL or Python, so a Flow with hundreds of visual steps has to be rebuilt from scratch if the organisation ever leaves, and that cost rises with every project added.
- Production requires separate automation and API nodes, each installed and licensed, so the figure quoted for building models is not the figure for running them.
- Licensing is per user across tiers, and the lower tiers are constrained enough that occasional contributors frequently end up needing a full seat, which makes a wide rollout cost more than the initial estimate suggested.
- A self-hosted installation needs a dedicated administrator for upgrades, connection management, permissions and node topology, so the licence is a fraction of the real cost of ownership.
- Computation pushes down to the warehouse or Spark cluster where it is billed by that provider, so a platform sold on making analysts self-sufficient can generate a large warehouse bill that nobody attributes back to it.
Gumloop
- Pro plan at $37/month may be limiting for enterprises considering spending caps
- Requires enterprise plan for advanced security controls needed by large organizations
- No permanent free tier beyond 14-day trial
- Company Brain integration depends on having all tools connected

Questions people ask
- Is Dataiku or Gumloop better?
- Neither clearly leads. Dataiku starts at Free and Gumloop at Free, and user ratings are close enough to be indistinguishable. Choose on capability and platform support.
- Which is cheaper, Dataiku or Gumloop?
- Dataiku starts at Free and Gumloop at Free.
- Does Dataiku or Gumloop run on more platforms?
- Dataiku runs on Linux, Mac, Windows, Web. Gumloop runs on Web, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Gmail.
- Can I use Dataiku for free?
- Both have a free tier, so you can try either at no cost before committing.
- What is Dataiku best used for?
- Dataiku is most often used for organisations where analysts and data scientists must collaborate on the same pipeline rather than exchanging extracts, regulated model risk environments needing documented lineage, sign-off and a record of how a production model was produced, pushing heavy transformations down into a cloud warehouse while keeping the pipeline definition in one reviewable place, large enterprises replacing a sprawl of spreadsheets and unmanaged scripts with something a governance function will accept. Of those, organisations where analysts and data scientists must collaborate on the same pipeline rather than exchanging extracts and regulated model risk environments needing documented lineage, sign-off and a record of how a production model was produced are not what Gumloop is typically brought in for.
- What can Dataiku do that Gumloop cannot?
- Dataiku covers Visual Flow, Visual recipes, Code recipes and notebooks, Computation pushdown. Gumloop covers No-code agent builder, 300+ app integrations, Company Brain, Self-improving agents.
Answered from the vendors’ own pages
Dataiku: Is there a free version?
There is a free edition with limits on users and features, adequate for evaluation and personal work. Anything a team runs in production is a negotiated commercial agreement.
Gumloop: Can non-technical users build agents with Gumloop?
Yes, Gumloop is designed for domain experts without programming skills. The no-code interface enables anyone who understands a task to automate it without coding.
SourceDataiku: Do I have to write code to use it?
No. That is the premise. An analyst can build a complete pipeline through visual recipes, and a data scientist can write Python next to it in the same Flow.
Gumloop: How many applications can Gumloop integrate with?
Gumloop integrates with 300+ business tools including Salesforce, HubSpot, Slack, Gmail, GitHub, Jira, and others. The Company Brain feature unifies data from all connected applications.
SourceDataiku: Where does the computation actually run?
Wherever you connect it. Transformations are pushed down into the warehouse, database or Spark cluster where the data lives, which is efficient and also means the compute cost appears on that provider's bill rather than Dataiku's.
Gumloop: What security features does Enterprise include?
Enterprise plans offer SCIM and SAML support, SOC 2 Type II compliance, custom MCP server hosting, advanced admin features, audit logging, and VPC deployments for data isolation.
SourceDataiku: Can I export my work if we leave?
Code recipes are your code and leave with you. Visual recipes do not export as equivalent code, so the visual portion of a Flow has to be reimplemented, and that portion tends to be the majority in the projects where the platform succeeded best.
Dataiku: Self-hosted or cloud?
Both are offered. Self-hosting gives control over data residency and networking and requires an administrator; the managed cloud removes that work and moves the constraint to what the vendor's environment supports.
