We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"We can use the solution to implement our tasks and models quickly.""The product saves a lot of time.""The most valuable feature of Azure OpenAI stems from the GPT-3.5 models it provides to its users.""Our clients are interested in building knowledge bases, particularly in child welfare. In this domain, we focus on supporting caseworkers by compiling and organizing relevant information. This information is then stored in a database using a query. The database generates summaries and reminders for specific actions and even facilitates sending emails to parents or other relevant parties. The system's complexity is tailored to the specific needs of child welfare cases. Additionally, we're exploring opportunities to assist a healthcare organization. Specifically, we're working on streamlining the process of filling out forms required for insurance claims. This effort aims to ensure that hospitals can receive funding or payment for the care they provide.""OpenAI's models are more mature than Watson's. They offer a wider range of features and provide richer outputs.""My goal was to create an experience where project managers don't have to read through entire documents. Instead, they can ask a question and receive relevant point analysis. This analysis identifies the document and specific section where the information resides. Previously, users had to rely on these document references. Now, Azure OpenAI enhances the experience by providing the answer directly in the user's own language, relevant to their context.""We have many use cases for the solution, such as digitalizing records, a chatbot looking at records, and being able to use generative AI on them.""Azure OpenAI is very easy to use instead of AWS services."

"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.""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.""What made TensorFlow so appealing to us is that you could run it on a cluster computer and on a mobile device.""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's got quite a big community, which is useful.""Optimization is very good in TensorFlow. There are many opportunities to do hyper-parameter training.""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.""TensorFlow is a framework that makes it really easy to use for deep learning."

Cons
"Latency performance is a major part. And I'm seeking support for multiple models that handle text, images, videos, and voice. I'm from India, and I'm looking for more support in Indian languages. There are 18 official languages and many more unofficial. We need support for these languages, especially in voice moderation, which is not yet available.""There are no available updates of information that are currently provided.""I noticed there are no instructional videos or guides on the network portal for initial configurations. There is limited information available, and this is a concern for me. I would like to see more resources and guides to address these issues.""Sometimes, the responses are repetitive.""We are awaiting the new updates like multi-model capabilities.""The product features themselves are fine. However, with Microsoft scaling the service so much, the support structure needs to keep pace. When solving complex issues, the process of interacting with Microsoft can be quite time-consuming.""Deployment was slightly complex for me to understand.""The fine-tuning of models with the use of Azure OpenAI is an area with certain shortcomings currently, and it can be considered for improvement in the future."

"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.""It doesn't allow for fast the proto-typing. So usually when we do proto-typing we will start with PyTorch and then once we have a good model that we trust, we convert it into TensorFlow. So definitely, TensorFlow is not very flexible.""It would be nice if the solution was in Hungarian. I would like more Hungarian NAT models.""JavaScript is a different thing and all the websites and web apps and all the mobile apps are built-in JavaScript. JavaScript is the core of that. However, TensorFlow is like a machine learning item. What can be improved with TensorFlow is how it can mix in how the JavaScript developers can use TensorFlow.""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.""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."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The cost structure depends on the volume of data processed and the computational resources required."
  • "The pricing is acceptable, and it's delivering good value for the results and outcomes we need."
  • "The cost is pretty high. Even by US standards, you would find it high."
  • "The cost is quite high and fixed."
  • "The tool costs around 20 dollars a month."
  • "Cost-wise, the product's price is a bit on the higher side."
  • "I'm uncertain about the licensing, specifically the pricing. This falls under the purview of other teams, particularly the sales teams. I am not informed about the pricing details."

  • More Azure OpenAI Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "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."
