Automation has improved efficiency and decision-making while big data handling and transparency still need work
Aside from the many advantages of DataRobot, I believe there are areas that could be improved based on my experience. There is a lack of transparency in the models; sometimes it feels like a black box. For example, when I uploaded a large data set of about two gigabytes for processing, the time taken was slower than expected. Additionally, the handling of bigger data sets could be better, as it performs extremely well with smaller datasets but can lag with larger ones. The integration with some other tools used in our organization can also be challenging, and more flexibility for custom pre-processing and advanced model tuning would be beneficial. In terms of support and documentation, I believe improvements are needed. For instance, the response time from DataRobot could be quicker, which would be appreciated when we need assistance. The documentation is generally sufficient, but it can be lengthy and could use more real-world examples and step-by-step tutorials for better clarity. Lastly, creating a client community where users can share experiences and solutions might enhance the overall value and learning curve.

Improved model deployment on edge devices, but compatibility and scalability present challenges
I found OpenVINO's ability to convert custom models into its format particularly beneficial, as businesses sometimes require unique models specific to their use cases. Utilizing OpenVINO allowed me to run these custom models on devices directly, which I found quite impressive. Additionally, the Model Zoo offered by OpenVINO added value to the product.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We especially like the initial part of feature engineering, because feature engineering is included in most engines, but DataRobot has an excellent way of picking up the right features."
"We especially like the initial part of feature engineering, because feature engineering is included in most engines, but DataRobot has an excellent way of picking up the right features."
"DataRobot has positively impacted my organization, and since we started using this tool, we have automated several legacy models with far better performance."
"DataRobot is highly automated, allowing data scientists to build models easily."
"The business departments will love to work with DataRobot because they use the tool to investigate their data, such as targeting what they want to investigate."
"It's easy to do MLOps operations. It's a lot easier to manage jobs and see the logs if there's any drift in a model."
"By automating highly technical aspects like model comparison, DataRobot enhances productivity and reduces project timelines from three months to less than one month."
"Tasks such as model testing, feature engineering, and predictions that used to take us days or weeks can now be accomplished in hours."
"The initial setup is quite simple."
"The runtime of OpenVINO is highly valuable for running different computer vision models."
"The solution's ability to stream data directly from camera inputs is the most valuable aspect for us."
"Compared to Jetson Nano or Jetson TX2, or Jetson Xavier, OpenVINO is a much more cost-effective solution."
"The features for model comparison, the feature for model testing, evaluation, and deployment are very nice. It can work almost with all the models."
"One positive aspect about OpenVINO is that it supports more frameworks than the Google Coral TPU."
"The features for model comparison, the feature for model testing, evaluation, and deployment are very nice, and it can work almost with all the models."
"The inferencing and processing capabilities are quite beneficial for our requirements."
 

Cons

"Generative AI has taken pace, and I would like to see how DataRobot assists in doing generative AI and large language models."
"We dropped the plan to use DataRobot because we found the pricing to be on the higher side."
"There are some performance issues."
"The business departments will love to work with DataRobot because they use the tool to investigate their data, such as targeting what they want to investigate. They don't need any data scientists near them. They can investigate at eye level and bring into the BI tool, or can bring it to the data scientist. Data scientists can use this tool to bring increase the solution to the maximum. All the others can use it, but not to the maximum."
"There is a lack of transparency in the models; sometimes it feels like a black box."
"If we could include our existing Python or R code in DataRobot, we could make it even better. The DataRobot that we have is specific to an industry, but most of the time we would have our own algorithms, which are specific to our own use case. If we had a way by which we could integrate our proprietary things into DataRobot with a simple integration, it would help us a lot."
"The price points can also be improved."
"All the others can use it, but not to the maximum."
"Scalability is a challenge with OpenVINO, particularly when I try to connect multiple streams of input or run multiple edge devices consecutively."
"I couldn't get it to run on my Raspberry Pi 4 because the software packages to download were no longer available."
"It has some disadvantages because when you're working with very complex models, neural networks if OpenVINO cannot convert them automatically and you have to do a custom layer and later add it to the model. It is difficult."
"The model optimization is a little bit slow — it could be improved."
"It would be great if OpenVINO could convert new models into its format more quickly."
"At this point, the product could probably just use a greater integration with more machine learning model tools."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of DataRobot is good because if you take the price of the solution which is approximately $65,000, it is less than a data scientist. There are very few data scientists available."
"We dropped the plan to use DataRobot, because we found the pricing to be on the higher sise. We liked DataRobot a lot, but due to the pricing, we dropped that idea."
"We didn't have to pay for any licensing with Intel OpenVINO. Everything is available on their site and easily downloadable for free."
