Azure Machine Learning Studio vs Keras

• 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.

• Performs well when you are doing some implementation which requires neural network implementation and some other deep learning models
• It has lots of inbuilt tools which you can have clean your data before processing
• It supports Tensorflow as its backend, so it can easily use GPU

• 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

• With Keras you don't have much power to configure your model. So, if it can be possible to do the customization to the deep level, then it will be good.
• It is only available for Python, doesn't have other language support.
• Would love to see dynamic chart creation, like PyTorch

• 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

• It helped me in learning the basic concept of deep learning by having hands-on experience.
• It has helped us to implement our NN with very little time.
• It doesn't give you the whole power to customize your neural network. If you want that then you have to shift to TensorFLow
