Cons
"Scalability to handle big data can be improved by making integration with networks such as Hadoop and Apache Spark easier.""There are other better solutions for large data, such as Databricks.""The pricing of the solution is an issue...In SageMaker, monitoring could be improved by supporting more data types other than JSON and CSV.""Creating notebook instances for multiple users is pretty expensive in Amazon SageMaker.""The payment and monitoring metrics are a bit confusing not only for Amazon SageMaker but also for the range of other products that fall under AWS, especially for a new user of the product.""Lacking in some machine learning pipelines.""The training modules could be enhanced. We had to take in-person training to fully understand SageMaker, and while the trainers were great, I think more comprehensive online modules would be helpful.""The solution needs to be cheaper since it now charges per document for extraction."

"The area that needs improvement would be the organization of the materials. It could be clearer and more systematic. It would be good if the layout was clear and we could search the models easily.""Implementing a cloud system to showcase historical data would be beneficial."
