Singh Aman - PeerSpot reviewer
Generative AI Engineer at Tata Consultancy
Have improved project workflows using faster response times and reduced data embedding costs
One thing that Cohere can improve is related to some distances when I am trying similarity search. Let's suppose I have provided textual data that has been embedded. I have to use some extra process from numpy after embedding the model. In the case of OpenAI embedding models, I do not have to use that extra process, and they provide lower distances compared to my results from Cohere. I was getting distances of approximately 0.005 sometimes, but in the case of Cohere, I was getting distances around 0.5 or sometimes more than that. I think that can be improved. It was possibly because of some configuration or the way I was using it, but I am not exactly sure about that.

Has good stability, but the process of creating models could be more user-friendly
The platform integrates well with other tools, especially Python, which we use to create models. These models can be deployed on mobile devices, which perfectly suits our requirements. It supports our AI-driven initiatives very well by producing AI models, which is its primary function. I recommend it for those seeking specialized scripting. However, it's important to consider other options as well. It is better suited for specialists in the field and is less user-friendly than general tools like Excel. I rate it overall at six out of ten. While it is a powerful tool, other software options are slightly simpler for training models.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I assess the value of Cohere's API support in my business operations as easy to integrate."
"A key advantage of integrating Cohere’s reranking model is that it aligns with client requests to include a reranking module — a widely recognized method for improving RAG quality. Additionally, the API demonstrates strong performance in terms of response speed."
"The best feature Cohere offers is the Reranking model."
"Cohere helped us with all three aspects: money is saved, time is saved, and we needed fewer resources to meet our end goals."
"Cohere has positively impacted my organization by helping our customers work more efficiently when creating requests, and the embedding results are of very high quality."
"The very first thing that I really like about it is the support team, because they're really available on Discord and they answer all of your questions."
"Cohere's Embed English v3.0 is a cloud-hosted model that took less time to embed the textual data and was more than 50 to 60% faster than other models, even somewhat faster than text-embedding-3 from OpenAI, helping to reduce development and embedding times."
"Speed has helped me in my day-to-day work, and I really notice the difference because it responds very quickly to LLM requests."
"The solution is quite useful for production."
"We haven't had any issues stability-wise or scalability-wise."
"It is open-source, and it is being worked on all the time. You don't have to pay all the big bucks like Azure and Databricks. You can just use your local machine with the open-source TensorFlow and create pretty good models."
"TensorFlow is easy to implement and offers inbuilt functions for various tasks."
"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."
"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."
"TensorFlow has improved a lot in my company because it can do useful predictions, and if you can predict, you can optimize, and you can make your business from reactive to proactive."
"TensorFlow is an efficient product for building neural networks."
 

Cons

"Cohere could improve in areas where the command model is not as creative as some larger LLMs available in the market, which is expected but noticeable in open-ended generative tasks."
"I believe Cohere can be improved technically by providing more feedback, logs, and metrics for embedding requests, as it currently appears to be a black box without any understanding of quality."
"Cohere has text generation. I think it is mainly focused on AI search. If there was a way to combine the searches with images, I think it would be nice to include that."
"When performing similarity matching between text descriptions and the catalog descriptions created using Cohere, the matching could be improved."
"Cohere can be improved by having more integrations beyond its current offerings with Amazon."
"I have not observed any measurable benefits or return on investment with Cohere."
"One thing that Cohere can improve is related to some distances when I am trying similarity search."
"The documentation and support could be improved, as there is limited documentation available on the web."
"Personally, I find it to be a bit too much AI-oriented."
"TensorFlow Lite only outputs to C."
"Providing more control by allowing users to build custom functions would make TensorFlow a better option."
"I utilize a Mac, and I am unable to utilize AMD GPUs."
"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 deep learning takes a lot of computation power. The more systems you can use, the easier it is. That's a good ability, if you can make a system run immediately at the same time on the same task, it's much faster rather than you having one system running which is slower. Running systems in parallel is a complex situation, but it can improve. There is a lot of work involved."
"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."
"There are connection issues that interrupt the download needed for the data sets. We need to prepare them ourselves."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The solution is free."
"TensorFlow is free."
"I did not require a license for this solution. It a free open-source solution."
"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."
"It is open-source software. You don't have to pay all the big bucks like Azure and Databricks."
"I am using the open-source version of TensorFlow and it is free."
"We are using the free version."
"I rate TensorFlow's pricing a five out of ten."

What is your experience regarding pricing and costs for Cohere?
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing was that it was all managed by AWS, and we had AWS credits, so I did not have to dive into that.
What needs improvement with Cohere?
Cohere can be improved by having more integrations beyond its current offerings with Amazon. Integrations with Databricks, Azure, and Google Cloud would be beneficial.
What is your primary use case for Cohere?
My main use case for Cohere is that it's a good embedding model. I have used it with Titan, but Cohere came out better. A specific example of how I've used Cohere for embeddings is when I was worki...
What is your experience regarding pricing and costs for TensorFlow?
