A good finding for a big data start up
- Saves a lot of time analyzing documents
- Generates interesting insights from them (non evident)
- Performs with an acceptable performance over complex information
- Language feature (currently in Beta stage) that's really necessary for our field. We analyze lots of documents related to items sold. This data contains lots of language specific information.
- Better insights on the ingestion process, in order to detect errors or failures.
- Better documentation on every step of its data processing.

Like Sherlock, you'll be needing your Watson too! Not a person, just the AI! *wink wink*
- Fast results.
- Provides overview and references that we could use as basis on other documents.
- Easy to use!
- I believe AI should be more flexible about providing data. However, it's understandable that you need to provide the details you need in a more specific and detailed way.
- The interface could use more tweaking. Being new to the program, it was kind of hard to navigate.
- Luckily, there was a customized feature of the dashboard that I could set up, and having something that you know where you are placed always feels familiar and comfortable.

Depths of Data with IBM Watson Discovery
- Content Anaylsis
- Personalization
- Knowledge Management
- Quality of Data
- Limited Training
- Contextual Understanding

Discovery is an amazing technology used for greater insights and better SME performance.
- Searching through big collections of documents has never been easier thanks to Discovery's ability to identify, classify, profile, tag, and even split documents to allow for optimized search results.
- IBM Watson Discovery is by far the go-to tool for mining data collections and getting deeper insights, thanks to the recent release of the Data Miner feature and its amazing graphic interface.
- Another thing Discovery does well is the use of Natural Language Processing (NLP), and Smart Document Understanding (SDU) features to train and learn the structures of documents which makes it super easy to find and highlight answers to complex questions.
- Discovery does not have an end-user interface which makes it a little cumbersome for the non-technical audience. One needs to figure out how to leverage open-source technology to create a simple UI to interface with Discovery, but I believe IBM Dev teams ought to create an intuitive UI similar to that of Watson Assistant and make it easier for both technical and non-technical audiences to use Discovery with ease.
- Another issue we faced with Discovery was when we tried to ingest very technical documents with less text and more engineering diagrams and ended up with a bit of a mess because Discovery did not manage to parse them correctly, but that is being fixed by IBM Dev team as far as I know. IBM is enhancing its OCR to allow for better recognition and understanding of advanced engineering graphs and diagrams.
- After having tested the newly released Data Miner on IBM Watson Discovery, my impression is that it is targeting a niche audience of SMEs and technical people who understand what to mine for and comprehend the overly complicated graphs generated. I believe IBM should work on simplifying the UI as well as the way graphs are being displayed to allow business users to leverage this awesome feature.
