Platform accelerates model development, enhances collaboration, and offers efficient deployment
The best features Microsoft Azure Machine Learning Studio offers include deep integration with Python notebooks and Azure Data Lake, which allows me to import external data, and through the pipeline, I can build my models, performing what is called data injection for my model building, making that deep integration quite interesting to use. Microsoft Azure Machine Learning Studio is a powerful platform for those already in the Azure ecosystem because it allows for scalability and provides a good environment for reproducibility, as well as collaboration tools, all designed and packaged in one place, which makes it outstanding. Microsoft Azure Machine Learning Studio has positively impacted my organization by reducing our project delivery times and increasing the pace at which we work, allowing us to focus on other more important tasks. Using Microsoft Azure Machine Learning Studio has reduced our model development time from approximately four hours to about two hours.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The initial setup is very simple and straightforward."
"It helps in building customized models, which are easy for clients to use​.​​"
"It's easy to use."
"It's good for citizen data scientists, but also, other people can use Python or .NET code."
"I find Microsoft Azure Machine Learning Studio advantageous because it allows integration with Titan Scratch and offers an easy-to-use drag-and-drop menu for developing machine learning models."
"The most valuable feature of Azure Machine Learning Studio for me is its convenience. I can quickly start using it without setting up the environment or buying a lot of devices."
"The visualizations are great. It makes it very easy to understand which model is working and why."
"The drag-and-drop interface is good."
"One of the best features of TIBCO Statistica is its block-based solution building."
 

Cons

"The data processor can pose a bit of a challenge, but the real complexity is determined by the skill of the implementation team."
"They should have a desktop version to work on the platform."
"One problem I experience is that switching between multiple accounts can be difficult. I don't think there are any major issues. Mostly, the biggest challenge is to identify business solutions to this. The tool should keep on updating new algorithms and not stay static."
"The solution should be more customizable. There should be more algorithms."
"The data cleaning functionality is something that could be better and needs to be improved."
"​It could use to add some more features in data transformation, time series and the text analytics section."
"The AutoML feature is very basic and they should improve it by using a more robust algorithm."
"The speed of deployment should be faster, as should testing."
"TIBCO Statistica could improve by expanding its neural network capabilities to support multi-layer networks, addressing user demands for advanced tasks like image analysis."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"ML Studio's pricing becomes a numbers game."
"On a scale from one to ten, with ten being overpriced, I would rate the price of this solution at six."
"From a developer's perspective, I find the price of this solution high."
"We pay only the Azure costs for what we use, which involves some subscription costs. But essentially, you pay for what you use. There are no extra costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
"In terms of pricing, for any cloud solution, you should know the tricks of the trade and how to use it, otherwise, you'll end up paying a lot of money irrespective of the cloud provider, so at least for Microsoft Azure Machine Learning Studio pricing versus AWS, I would rate it three out of five, with one being the most expensive, and five being the cheapest. It could be cheaper, but you also have to be careful when choosing the plans, for example, consider the architecture and a lot of other factors before choosing your plan, if you don't want to end up paying more. If your cloud provider has an optimizer that seems to be available in every provider, that would keep alerting you in terms of resources not being used as much, then that would help you with budgeting."
"There is a lack of certainty with the solution's pricing."
"My team didn't deal with the licensing for Microsoft Azure Machine Learning Studio, so I'm unable to comment on pricing, but the money that was spent on the tool was worth it."
"I would rate the pricing an eight out of ten, with ten being very expensive. Not very expensive, not very cheap."
