Pinecone Reviews Summary
Author infoRatingReview Summary
SDE at Alphablocks4.0I use Pinecone as a vector database for chatbots and AI applications due to its effective semantic search capabilities. However, it lacks feedback on deletions and has slow search speeds. I compared it with Weaviate and chose both for projects.
Artificial Intelligence Consultant at GlobalLogic4.0I used Pinecone with an Azure database to create a chatbot that accessed public media. Pinecone's managed service is its standout feature, offering flexibility and ease of use. However, it could be more budget-friendly. We chose it over other solutions for its superior UI.
Chief Executive Officer at Nyx CodeCraft4.0We built an ERP dashboard using Pinecone for its reliability and comprehensive use. The tool excels in data collection and retrieval, though its onboarding process could be improved. Previously, we used PG vector for prototype testing before settling on Pinecone.
Machine Learning Engineer at a consumer goods company with 51-200 employees4.0I like Pinecone for its data storage features and free learning options. It supports research and server interaction, though local support for testing could improve. While it's a good tool, I've used it minimally and consider alternatives.
Data Science Trainee at a consultancy with 11-50 employees4.0I used Pinecone to streamline token generation for my chatbot's functionality, finding its private local host feature especially valuable. However, I prefer accessing the environment directly without requiring a login and API key. Previously, I used Corner DB.
Full-stack Engineer at a security firm with 201-500 employees4.0In my company, we utilize Pinecone to store industry documents for a RAG application, valuing its similarity and maximal marginal relevance search features. However, its storage isn't serverless and relies on pod-based capacity, which needs improvement.
