Experiment tracking has transformed model comparisons and now supports faster, clearer insights
I would like to see more flexibility around content and reporting in Comet. Overall, the features are very strong, but having more customizable dashboards or easier ways to create shareable summaries for non-technical stakeholders would be helpful. It would make it easier to turn experiment results into clear insights without exporting data to other tools. There is a need for some improvements in Comet. It is very strong overall, but there are a few areas where it can be improved. For example, more flexibility in dashboards and content customization would be helpful, especially for creating summaries for non-technical stakeholders. Additionally, some advanced features have a learning curve, so slightly simpler onboarding or guided tips would make it easier for new users or freshers. These are minor points and they do not affect my regular day-to-day usage, but from the perspective of a fresher or new users, it could be improved.

Comprehensive monitoring boosts security, yet incident management features need expansion
Fortinet FortiSIEM should broaden its remediation part to include more features for incident management. Currently, to manage repetitive incidents or for remediation, I need to use a separate software called FortiSOAR. Additionally, the search functionality in FortiAI should be improved to provide more precise results, making it easier for me to understand what actions need to be taken.
