Usability
IBM
I can give it 10/10 due to its impact in data analysis management. This is the right software for driving business insights and enhancing effective decision making. The infrastructure has the formal tools for preparing data before using it to make critical decisions. The NLP has enhanced standard analysis of unstructured data from social media websites.

Alternatives Considered
IBM
Pinecone and IBM watsonx.data (Milvus in our case) both work great as a full-managed cloud-based vector database. We selected IBM watsonx.data because it integrates well with watson.ai and is a little more beginner friendly than Pinecone, but I think both are great anyway.

Return on Investment
IBM
  • for one automation project, we managed to cut cloud storage costs by a third through IBM watsonx.data's lakehouse optimization
  • data integration projects have had a 20 % reduction in turnaround times. Can only imagine how that will improve with the Claude partnership
