Likelihood to Recommend 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.
Read full review Kortical is really widely applicable to many use cases, although it doesn't handle images or video it is great to help you build really great ML models without needing to plan ahead what you are going to try, you let the platform build you the best model. It is suited to beginner and more advanced data scientists as you can edit the code to narrow the search space which makes model creation more you build it without AutoML. Hosting the model behind an API that is ready to go is great as it saves so much time vs doing that dev work from scratch
Read full review Pros 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. Read full review The NLP models results were much better than the ones that we did outside of the platform. It is really easy and quick to build a good model with a lot of the manual boring tasks all done automatically like one hot encoding, etc. Kortical shows the features and their importance for any model type as part of the platform which is great for understanding the models. Read full review Cons 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 Read full review It would be ideal to have Jupyter built into the platform, they say it is coming. Also while it is easy to use, at the start it would have been helpful to have more help guides. Read full review Usability 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.
Read full review Support Rating Support is nonexistent. It's very frustrating to try and find someone to actually talk to. The robot chatbots are just not well trained.
Read full review Their support is great as we use Slack and we have our own channel and they always respond really quickly. Data Science support is available to help unblock you as well as dev support as we're setting up the data feeds. It would be great if there were more FAQ or self-help guides in the platform but the personal touch is also really appreciated and probably gets us there quicker anyway.
Read full review Implementation Rating Not sure
Read full review Alternatives Considered 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.
Read full review Return on Investment 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 Read full review ROI is great as what we would spend on compute we get the AutoML for essentially the same price so it is cost neutral as Kortical comes with compute built-in. The results mean that we can automate so much more than our previous model so that is key to the positive ROI. The platform auto trains new models and lets us know when there is a better model so it has saved a lot of time so we can focus on new business problems to solve with ML. Read full review ScreenShots
