We performed a comparison between Caffe and TensorFlow based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Google, TensorFlow and others in AI Development Platforms."Caffe has helped our company become up-to-date in the market and has helped us speed up the development process of our projects."
"Our clients were not aware they were using TensorFlow, so that aspect was transparent. I think we personally chose TensorFlow because it provided us with more of the end-to-end package that you can use for all the steps regarding billing and our models. So basically data processing, training the model, evaluating the model, updating the model, deploying the model and all of these steps without having to change to a new environment."
"It is also totally Open-Source and free. Open-source applications are not good usually. but TensorFlow actually changed my view about it and I thought, "Look, Oh my God. This is an open-source application and it's as good as it could be." I learned that TensorFlow, by sharing their own knowledge and their own platform with other developers, it improved the lives of many people around the globe."
"It provides us with 35 features like patch normalization layers, and it is easy to implement using the Kras library when the Kaspersky flow is running behind it."
"Edge computing has some limited resources but TensorFlow has been improving in its features. It is a great tool for developers."
"It empowers us to seamlessly create and deploy machine learning models, offering a versatile solution for implementing sophisticated environments and various types of AI solutions."
"Google is behind TensorFlow, and they provide excellent documentation. It's very thorough and very helpful."
"I would rate the solution an eight out of ten. I am not a developer but more of an account manager. I can find what I want with TensorFlow. I haven’t contacted technical support for any issues. Since TensorFlow is vastly documented on the internet, I usually find some good websites where people exchange their views about the solution and apply that."
"Optimization is very good in TensorFlow. There are many opportunities to do hyper-parameter training."
"The concept of Caffe is a little bit complex because it was developed and based in C++. They need to make it easier for a new developer, data scientist, or a new machine or deep learning engineer to understand it."
"It would be cool if TensorFlow could make it easier for companies like us to program for running it across different hyperscalers."
"Personally, I find it to be a bit too much AI-oriented."
"I would love to have a user interface like a programming interface. You need to have a set of menus where you can put things together in a graphical interface. The complete automation of the integration of the modules would also be interesting. It’s more like plumbing as opposed to a fully automated environment."
"However, if I want to change just one thing in the implementation of TensorFlow functions I have to copy everything that they wrote and I change it manually if indeed it can be amended. This is really hard as it's written in C++ and has a lot of complications."
"The solution is hard to integrate with the GPUs."
"For newcomers to the field, the learning curve can be steep, often requiring about a year of dedicated effort."
"TensorFlow Lite only outputs to C."
"In terms of improvement, we always look for ways they can optimize the model, accelerate the speed and the accuracy, and how can we optimize with our different techniques. There are various techniques available in TensorFlow. Maintaining accuracy is an area they should work on."
