Amazon Rekognition vs. Azure Machine Learning

Amazon Rekognition is well suited for all image and videos analysis. Also, deep learning projects for image and video can easily be done using this. It is very easy to use so a beginner can also use it.

For [a] data scientist require[d] to build a machine learning model, so he/she didn't worry about infrastructure to maintain it.

All kind of feature[s] such as train, build, deploy and monitor the machine learning model available in a single suite.

If someone has [their] own environment for ML studio, so there [it would] not [be] useful for them.

• Image tagging is very good.
• Object detection is precise.
• Video tagging has become very easy using Rekognition.

• User friendliness: This is by far the most user friendly tool I've seen in analytics. You don't need to know how to code at all! Just create a few blocks, connect a few lines and you are capable of running a boosted decision tree with a very high R squared!
• Speed: Azure ML is a cloud based tool, so processing is not made with your computer, making the reliability and speed top notch!
• Cost: If you don't know how to code, this is by far the cheapest machine learning tool out there. I believe it costs less than $15/month. If you know how to code, then R is free.
• Connectivity: It is super easy to embed R or Python codes on Azure ML. So if you want to do more advanced stuff, or use a model that is not yet available on Azure ML, you can simply paste the code on R or Python there!
• Microsoft environment: Many many companies rely on the Microsoft suite. And Azure ML connects perfectly with Excel, CSV and Access files.

• The cost is bit more for small scale companies.
• For text processing, OCR is not available in amazon rekognition.
• Only facial search is available in image search.

• It would be great to have text tips that could ease new users to the platform, especially if an error shows up
• Scenario-based documentation
• Pre-processing of modules that had been previously run. Sometimes they need to be re-run for no apparent reason

Incentivized

Very much suitable for many applications where the image processing features are secondary and independent of any domain. This makes it a general solution and the recognition features are returned in a JSON object in response to the API called made which is a very simple process.

Easy and fastest way to develop, test, deploy and monitor the machine learning model.

- Easy to load the data set

-Drag and drop the process of the Machine learning life cycle.

Support of Amazon is great. So far we are having a great experience using it.

Support is nonexistent. It's very frustrating to try and find someone to actually talk to. The robot chatbots are just not well trained.

Not sure

It's easy to implement and its documentation is great compared to CNTK.

It is easier to learn, it has a very cost effective license for use, it has native build and created for Azure cloud services, and that makes it perfect when compared against the alternatives. As a Microsoft tool, it has been built to contain many visual features and improved usability even for non-specialist users.

• The best thing it made our work fast.
• It reduces the chance of failure of a project which is based on image or video processing.
• We can assign anyone in our team to work on this as it very easy to use.

• Productivity: Instead of coding and recoding, Azure ML helped my organization to get to meaningful results faster;
• Cost: Azure ML can save hundreds (or even thousands) of dollars for an organization, since the license costs around $15/month per seat.
• Focus on insights and not on statistics: Since running a model is so easy, analysts can focus more on recommendations and insights, rather than statistical details
