Quickly and reliably identifies potentially fraudulent activity
The problem I was facing, from a machine learning perspective, it only had a supervised learning capability. You would have to provide your data live, but in fraud, the pattern of the fraudsters keeps changing and it's impossible to provide data labels. That's where the user unsupervised learning comes in handy — you don't have to tell them, "okay, this is fraud and this is not fraud." If unsupervised learning was also incorporated with Amazon SageMaker, that would be really cool. I am talking about anomaly detection algorithms, like isolation, forest, or anything on the neural network side for anomaly detection, including autoencoders. These are some things which companies would really like to use. There was also a problem with latency. In fraud detection, everything needs to be happening in real-time, but some of the algorithms ran for three to four minutes, which is not a viable option.

Scalable and easy to use but could have better technical support
The solution is very stable. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's reliable and the performance has been very good so far. That said, from my perspective, has had some issues with stability and performance issues in that they have a lot of data and it has some indexing and mechanisms that work a bit slow.

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Overall, we got some really good results; we got roughly a 77% recall, which meant 77% of the total fraud was actually picked up by Amazon Fraud Detector."
"The solution is very stable; there are no bugs or glitches, it doesn't crash or freeze, and it has been reliable with very good performance so far."
"The security is also very good."
"Presently, the main purpose of SAS is to maintain a centralized platform for all of the verticals — like agriculture, NSME, and home loans — where the bank can monitor everything from one system."
"The solution is easy to use."
 

Cons

"There was also a problem with latency. In fraud detection, everything needs to be happening in real-time, but some of the algorithms ran for three to four minutes, which is not a viable option."
"There was also a problem with latency. In fraud detection, everything needs to be happening in real-time, but some of the algorithms ran for three to four minutes, which is not a viable option."
"It is a little bit costly."
"Occasionally, there are some mechanisms that can work a bit slow."
"Technical support could be much quicker and much more flexible."
