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.

IBM Watson Machine Learning is an AI-based scalable self-learning model for any type of business. It can be used to help any company automate repetitive tasks, predict future trends, and make data-driven decisions. I used it to predict stock prices based on certain variables. It works well, cost me nothing, and gives me the ability to create my own AI-based models that I can use for any purpose.

Usability

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.

IBM had a hard time providing business level support. There were a lot of data scientists and technology experts but rarely a simple business person shows up. Also the way IBM operates IBM Consulting has competing priorities as compared to IBM Technology. This has resulted in a lot of confusion at the client's end.

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

We have been using Microsoft Azure as a machine learning tool. But the challenges remain the same. These are all tools that you need a robust analysis before a decision on the tool. Unfortunately, the technology company cannot make that determination due to lack of core business understanding. Without that the project is doomed.
