We performed a comparison between IBM SPSS Modeler and Saturn Cloud based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Science Platforms solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It helped me in that I didn't need to write them by hand, and I could get a result in one or two minutes. That helped me a lot."
"Our business units' capabilities with SPSS Modeler is high. They no longer waste time on modeling and algorithms, meaning they are not coding any more. For example, segmentation projects now take one to three months, rather than six months to a year, as before."
"Stability is good."
"Some basic form of feature engineering for classification models. This really quickens the model development process."
"It is very scalable for non-technical people."
"We are using it either for workforce deployment or to improve our operations."
"The visual modeling capability is one of its attractive features."
"Extremely easy to use, it offers a generous selection of proprietary machine learning algorithms."
"It didn't take long to see that Saturn Cloud could scale with my needs, providing more resources when required."
"It offered an excellent development environment while not touching our production cloud resources."
"There is plenty of computational resources (both GPU, CPU and disk space)."
"Saturn Cloud supports GPU as part of the environment, which is essential for many computational tasks in machine learning projects. It also allows us to edit the environment, including the image, before we start the cloud resources. This feature lets us quickly set up the environment without the hassle of moving the data and code to another cloud device."
"The feature I like the most about Saturn Cloud is that it has lightning-fast CPUs."
"I understand that it takes some time to incorporate some of the new algorithms that have come out in the last few months, in the literature. For example, there is an algorithm based on how ants search for food. And there are some algorithms that have now been developed to complement rules. So that's one of the things that we need to have incorporated into it."
"The forecasting could be a bit easier."
"The platform's cloud version needs improvements."
"I would like better integration into the Weather Company solution. I have raised a couple of concerns about this integration and having more time series capabilities."
"When you are not using the product, such as during the pandemic where we had worldwide lockdowns, you still have to pay for the licensing."
"Time Series or forecasting needs to be easier. It is a very important feature, and it should be made easier and more automated to use. For instance, for logistic regression, binary or multinomial is used automatically based on the type of the target variable. I wish they can make Time Series easier to use in a similar way."
"I can say the solution is outdated."
"The platform that you can deploy it on needs improvement because I think it is Windows only. I do not think it can run off a Red Hat, like the server products. I am pretty sure it is Windows and AIX only."
"Saturn Cloud should include prebuilt images for advanced data science packages like LightGBM in the next release. If possible, they should also provide a Kaggle image, which contains the most common Python packages used in machine learning."
"Public Clouds integration and sandbox environments would be a true game changer."
"Providing more detailed and beginner-friendly documentation, especially for advanced features, could greatly enhance the user experience."
"We'd like to have the capability for installing more libraries."
"It would be nice to have more hardware category options, like TPU coprocessors or ARM64 CPUs."
