Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The superb thing that SageMaker brings is that it wraps everything well. It's got the deployment, the whole framework.""We were able to use the product to automate processes.""The product aggregates everything we need to build and deploy machine learning models in one place.""The deployment is very good, where you only need to press a few buttons.""The most valuable feature of Amazon SageMaker is that you don't have to do any programming in order to perform some of your use cases.""The solution's ability to improve work at my organization stems from the ensemble model and a combination of various models it provides.""They are doing a good job of evolving.""Feature Store, CodeCommit, versioning, model control, and CI/CD pipelines are the most valuable features in Amazon SageMaker."

"We especially like the initial part of feature engineering, because feature engineering is included in most engines, but DataRobot has an excellent way of picking up the right features.""DataRobot can be easy to use."

Cons
"There are other better solutions for large data, such as Databricks.""In general, improvements are needed on the performance side of the product's graphical user interface-related area since it consumes a lot of time for a user.""Lacking in some machine learning pipelines.""Creating notebook instances for multiple users is pretty expensive in Amazon SageMaker.""Scalability to handle big data can be improved by making integration with networks such as Hadoop and Apache Spark easier.""The documentation must be made clearer and more user-friendly.""The solution is complex to use.""SageMaker would be improved with the addition of reporting services."

More Amazon SageMaker Cons →

"The business departments will love to work with DataRobot because they use the tool to investigate their data, such as targeting what they want to investigate. They don't need any data scientists near them. They can investigate at eye level and bring into the BI tool, or can bring it to the data scientist. Data scientists can use this tool to bring increase the solution to the maximum. All the others can use it, but not to the maximum.""If we could include our existing Python or R code in DataRobot, we could make it even better. The DataRobot that we have is specific to an industry, but most of the time we would have our own algorithms, which are specific to our own use case. If we had a way by which we could integrate our proprietary things into DataRobot with a simple integration, it would help us a lot."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The pricing is complicated as it is based on what kind of machines you are using, the type of storage, and the kind of computation."
  • "The support costs are 10% of the Amazon fees and it comes by default."
  • "SageMaker is worth the money for our use case."
  • "Databricks solution is less costly than Amazon SageMaker."
  • "I would rate the solution's price a ten out of ten since it is very high."
  • "There is no license required for the solution since you can use it on demand."
  • "I rate the pricing a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is the lowest price, and ten is the highest price. The solution is priced reasonably. There is no additional cost to be paid in excess of the standard licensing fees."
  • "You don't pay for Sagemaker. You only pay for the compute instances in your storage."
  • More Amazon SageMaker Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "We dropped the plan to use DataRobot, because we found the pricing to be on the higher sise. We liked DataRobot a lot, but due to the pricing, we dropped that idea."
  • "The price of DataRobot is good because if you take the price of the solution which is approximately $65,000, it is less than a data scientist. There are very few data scientists available."
