Azure AI Language vs. Azure Machine Learning

Best suited for large organizations, availability of usage of more than one language in a specific API call. Moderately suited for small and mid sized organizations as the pricing is on a higher end

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.

• The data is pre configured that means the AI models that are used by features are not customizable. One needs to send data and have to use the output of the feature in our application
• Availability of customizations in order to adjust some specific requirements
• Availability of Language studio so that one can avoid coding

• 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 application is hard to use for new users
• Data Integration is complex in nature
• For Mid - sized organizations, the pricing is on higher end

• 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

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 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

We haven't used other products. Our experience with Azure, whilst not meeting our needs this time around, was positive, educational and insightful. This was the first time that we had considered using an AI tool to manage and manipulate our data and we were unsure of the capabilities.

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.

• Usage of more than one language in one specific API call
• Question Answering Feature
• Key Phrase Extraction, hence one need to read the entire phrase to understand the context

• 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
