Alessandro Trinca Tornidor - PeerSpot reviewer
Sviluppatore software at TeamSystem
Good for creating POCs, training machine learning models, and experimenting without local resources
The project I’m currently working on relies on CUDA, but my local PC does not have any Nvidia GPUs. I’ve found the computational resources and ease of use provided by Saturn Cloud invaluable. Also, there are many ready-to-use Docker images and a rich documentation portal with useful examples. The dashboard for creating a new virtual environment contains almost all the features I needed: environment variable definitions, git repositories cloning directly from the new resources page, and an edit field to define a custom script during the boot process. For this reason, Saturn Cloud.io is a very good solution for creating POCs, training machine learning models, and generally experimenting a bit without worrying about local resources.

Good performance, reporting, and data visualization
The two similar solutions that I have used are MicroStrategy and Tableau. Tableau is pretty similar and it would be difficult for me to point out the differences. With MicroStrategy, it has a great feature where you build the representation in the database and it then the tool creates SQL queries by itself. There are more differences between these tools but this is the one essential difference.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The feature I like the most about Saturn Cloud is that it has lightning-fast CPUs."
"There is plenty of computational resources (both GPU, CPU and disk space)."
"They provide a centralized space for data, code, and results."
"It didn't take long to see that Saturn Cloud could scale with my needs, providing more resources when required."
"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."
"It offered an excellent development environment while not touching our production cloud resources."
"The most valuable feature is the performance."
"The idea that you don't have to generate reports each day but they are sent automatically is great."
"In general, I would say that this is a good tool and I recommend it."
"We like the way we can drill down into each report to get back data on each project. From the portfolio level, I can see what is happening on it. That is a really important feature. I can look at indirect costs, for example, which are hitting each CIO portfolio. It's good to be able to see actual resources in terms of time as well as cost."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of setting up visualizations."
"In this sector of the market, it is indeed a better tool than the other data analytics tool, such as QlikView, for example."
 

Cons

"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."
"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."
"Providing more detailed and beginner-friendly documentation, especially for advanced features, could greatly enhance the user experience."
"My main suggestion for improvement centers on pricing. Introducing a tier modelled after AWS spot instances would be a game-changer."
"I would like the visualization for the map of countries to be more easily configurable."
"Whenever the client or someone was opening the report it would take around 15 to 20 minutes to open the first time."
"In terms of performance, I can see there are some issues when you are working with big data. When we are taking it from the Data Lake, we have a lot of issues."
"At this point, there are other tools that I would recommend before using Spotfire."
"Additional templates would help to get things moving more quickly in terms of getting the reports out."
"The scripting for customization could be improved."
"The initial setup was quite complex."
