Amazon Rekognition vs. IBM Watson Visual Recognition (discontinued)

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.

As I mentioned before, it can only be employed in simple basic visual recognition applications. It can be employed in large projects and relying it on completely is not encouraged. It's better to create your own algorithms rather than using it. If you are from a non-programming background, then I may suggest you rely on this and use it to develop simple apps that can predict a few plants and animals.

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

Incentivized

• Food recognition
• High reliability
• Speed

• 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.

• Not perfect
• Accuracy is doubted and sometimes it may not predict correctly.
• I think it should be improved and should add a few more functionalities.

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.

I am giving this rating on the basis of its usability in real-time applications and based on the interface to upload negative and positive images to train the AI. But it's not perfect and sometimes its predictions are wrong. On overall usability, it's better if you are planning on working with UI rather than using complex programs and algorithms on your own.

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

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

• 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.

Incentivized

• High cost if models are trained
