Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The features for model comparison, the feature for model testing, evaluation, and deployment are very nice. It can work almost with all the models.""The initial setup is quite simple.""The inferencing and processing capabilities are quite beneficial for our requirements."

"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.""TensorFlow improves my organization because our clients get a lot of investment from their investors and we are progressively improving the products. Every six months we release new features.""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.""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.""The most valuable features are the frameworks and the functionality to work with different data, even when we have a certain quantity of data flowing.""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."

Cons
"The model optimization is a little bit slow — it could be improved.""At this point, the product could probably just use a greater integration with more machine learning model tools.""It has some disadvantages because when you're working with very complex models, neural networks if OpenVINO cannot convert them automatically and you have to do a custom layer and later add it to the model. It is difficult."

"I know this is out of the scope of TensorFlow, however, every time I've sent a request, I had to renew the model into RAM and they didn't make that prediction or inference. This makes the point for the request that much longer. If they could provide anything to help in this part, it will be very great.""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.""There are a lot of problems, such as integrating our custom code. In my experience model tuning has been a bit difficult to edit and tune the graph model for best performance. We have to go into the model but we do not have a model viewer for quick access.""For newcomers to the field, the learning curve can be steep, often requiring about a year of dedicated effort.""It would be nice to have more pre-trained models that we can utilize within layers. I utilize a Mac, and I am unable to utilize AMD GPUs. That's something that I would definitely be like to be able to access within TensorFlow since most of it is with CUDA ML. This only matters for local machines because, in Azure, you can just access any GPU you want from the cloud. It doesn't really matter, but the clients that I work with don't have cloud accounts, or they don't want to utilize that or spend the money. They all see it as too expensive and want to know what they can do on their local machines.""It would be cool if TensorFlow could make it easier for companies like us to program for running it across different hyperscalers.""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.""TensorFlow Lite only outputs to C."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "We didn't have to pay for any licensing with Intel OpenVINO. Everything is available on their site and easily downloadable for free."

  • "TensorFlow is free."
  • "I think for learners to deploy a project, you can actually use TensorFlow for free. It's just amazing to have an open-source platform like TensorFlow to deploy your own project. Here in Russia no one really cares about licenses, as it is totally open source and free. My clients in the United States were also pleased to learn when they enquired, that licensing is free."
  • "We are using the free version."
  • "It is open-source software. You don't have to pay all the big bucks like Azure and Databricks."
  • "I did not require a license for this solution. It a free open-source solution."
  • "I am using the open-source version of TensorFlow and it is free."
  • "I rate TensorFlow's pricing a five out of ten."
  • "It is an open-source solution, so anyone can use it free of charge."

    OpenVINO
    Video Not Available
    Overview

    OpenVINO toolkit quickly deploys applications and solutions that emulate human vision. Based on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), the toolkit extends computer vision (CV) workloads across Intel hardware, maximizing performance. The OpenVINO toolkit includes the Deep Learning Deployment Toolkit (DLDT).

    TensorFlow is an open source software library for high performance numerical computation. Its flexible architecture allows easy deployment of computation across a variety of platforms (CPUs, GPUs, TPUs), and from desktops to clusters of servers to mobile and edge devices. Originally developed by researchers and engineers from the Google Brain team within Google’s AI organization, it comes with strong support for machine learning and deep learning and the flexible numerical computation core is used across many other scientific domains.
