Azur Systems vs. Planned

I would highly recommend Azure machine learning design for those with less access to high-end computing infrastructure, as using Azure saves a lot of time, money, and effort by providing a hustle-free platform that is easy to use and train your employees on. On the other hand, if you are looking for complete control of the machine learning model you create and would like to add detailed functionalities and try different algorithms, then Azure is less suitable here as it’s very high level.

Planned is well suited when you are stuck for ideas and require creative collaboration from a network of unique vendors.

• Leverage machine learning as a service.
• Accelerate machine learning with best-breed algorithms.
• Support remote working with cloud-based services.
• Creation of compliant and secure machine learning applications.

Incentivized

• Hands-on oversight of execution of a virtual event and client success management
• Connecting event industry professionals with companies in need of their services
• Highlighting services that an event industry professional or company offers

Incentivized

• Limited storage for those using the free version.
• Limited number of machine learning algorithms.
• Because of its high-level design, it doesn’t give the developers much control as you don’t write much code in to do what you exactly want.

• The platform can use some tweaking (i.e.: when reserving hotels, adding guest rooms, including meeting rooms - instead of just spaces, which can be confusing when searching).

It’s fierce competition, but Azure as a Microsoft product is more stable and performs better than Amazon AWS since all of our machines are built on Microsoft Operating systems. Azure provides a pay-per-minute service, unlike AWS, which provides a pay-per-hour service. Azure allows direct linking to exist cloud storage that we already use at our institution, such as OneDrive. Azure has a friendly and easy-to-use interface that staff and students are already used to working with other Microsoft products.

Planned is the only event planning software company we have worked with, and plan to work with. The team behind the platform is constantly innovating to enhance features and the overall experience for both vendors and users.

• Reduce energy consumption caused by GPUs.
• Saves on recycling and transporting costs and maintenance caused by buying high-end equipment.
• Improve productivity as building products using Azure is easier than building everything up from scratch (e.g., machine learning and AI applications).

Incentivized

• We were able to get repeat business from a new client brought to us by Planned
• We were able to learn more about what types of virtual event services we'd like to grow as a business, as a result of working with Planned
• We have not seen a financial ROI for our business yet because we have only worked with one client on the platform and it has been costly for us to accommodate this client
