we used Vertex AI on our automation process the model very useful and working as expected we have implemented in our monitoring phase this very helpful our analysis part. real time response is very effective and actively provide detailed overview about our products.this phase is well suited in our org. this model could not applicable for small level projects why because this model not needed for small level projects and without related resource of ML this model not useful. strictly on non cloud org not suitable means on pram not suitable

Cons
Google
  • Customization of AutoML models - A must needed capability to be able to tweak hyperparameters and also working with different models
  • Model Explainability -Providing more comprehensive explanations about how models are utilizing features could be very beneficial
  • Model versioning and experiments tracking - Enhancing the versioning capability could be good for end users

Performance
Google
Google is always top notch with their security and user interface performance. We use Google's entire suite in our business anyways, so using Vertex became second nature very quickly. I will say, though, that Google does need to come down on the price somewhat with their token allocation. Also, their UI is very robust, so it does require some time for training to really master it.

We tend to adapt and use the platform that suits the customers needs the best. We return to Vertex AI because it is the most in-depth option out there so we can configure it any which way they want. However, it is not quick to market and constantly changing or updating it's feature-set. This makes it suitable for bigger customers that have the capital and time to spend on a bigger project that is well researched and not quick to market like some of the other options that feel like a light-version of this.
