Overall Satisfaction with Watson Studio (formerly IBM Data Science Experience)

We bid on specialized projects in the public sector using a confidential configuration that solves a variety of problems. Marketing Research, Unified Data Governance, Modern Call Center, and other Cloud Initiatives. It's an integral part of our training for Engagement, Conversion, and Fulfillment of our BPM. This plans optimization segments by use case rather than dedicating resources to a single Industry like everyone else.
  • Rapid Data Science; IBM has done a great job of automating the data prep.
  • Asset Classification; there's a way to use numerical language prediction vs. natural language processing by using highly specialized data classification catalog within the DSx.
  • Visual Data Modeling; this results in faster time to value because you won't spend all day tuning a data model. Allowing you to compare different data models in the same weather forecast.
  • There should be a heavier emphasis on the IBM DSx Community. Showing people where to begin.
  • Perhaps more information related to how data science improves an organizations competency inventory to reduce the intimidation factors.
  • We specialize in wireless infrastructure as a service. ROI is in the form of no appliance maintenance, lowered utility costs, scalability, and augmented intelligence. We're able to look at 100+ attributes vs. another person only being able to consume 10 attributes before they get tired.
Many organizations are caught in a self-inflicted skills gap because they have never hired to train and retain. The competition lacks talent. Their customer lack talent. The DSx allows the organization to cope with a lack of competency inventory to do "load-n-go", rapid data science.
It's suited for big data analytics. Some industries would Pharma data, Oil & Gas, Financial Markets, HR, Sales, Price Variance, and etc. Most professionals do repetitive data prep on static spreadsheets. DSx reduces the data duplication and allows everyone to see the same picture. And makes segregation of duties simple: the modeler can be isolated from the data tuning operation and both can be isolated from the decision maker.
