[Plotly Chart Studio is] a great tool to make visualizations on a web based portal. For python developers, it can ease of some burden of writing code again and again for the same thing and also refreshing visualizations on old scripts when data changes. All in all, a simple yet effective tool for your report generation and visualization needs[.]

Shiny is well suited where an organisation is looking to empower their analysts to minimise time spent on repetitive analysis by deploying repeatable analytical pipelines, but also looking for them to add greater value to the organisation by utilising more advanced analytical techniques. Ideally it is well suited where IT are on board and supportive of some of the more advanced features such as deploying R Shiny dashboards.

  • We saw a good involvement to researchers when showing their models in shiny.
  • We can have a quicker review from the user when the model is in production.
  • False positives can be found easily and they help the retraining of the model.
