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.

"Microsoft Azure Machine Learning Studio offers a hands-on experience with lots of flexibility."
"The most valuable feature is the knowledge bank, which allows us to ask questions and the AI will automatically pull the pre-prescribed responses."
"The initial setup is very simple and straightforward."
"Azure's AutoML feature is probably better than the competition."
 

Cons

"The development support, costing twenty-nine dollars per month, is almost ineffective, with long email response times."
"There needs to be continuous monitoring and improvement, especially regarding security issues, to address threats from hackers."
"The data preparation capabilities need to be improved. Using this product, I can not prepare the data very much and this is a bottleneck in machine learning."
"The data cleaning functionality is something that could be better and needs to be improved."
"It's not that easy to master the program, it requires some specific learning."
"Technical support could improve their turnaround time."
"I would like to see modules to handle Deep Learning frameworks."
"I personally would prefer if data could be tunneled to my model through a SAP ERP system, and have features of Excel, such as Pivot Tables, integrated."
"I have found Databricks is a better solution because it has a lot of different cluster choices and better integration with MLflow, which is much easier to handle in a machine learning system."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The product's pricing is reasonable."
"To use MLS is fairly cheap. Even the paid account is something like $20/month, unless you are provisioning large numbers of VMs for a Hadoop cluster. The main MS makes money with this solution is forcing the user to deploy their model on REST API, and being charged each time the API is accessed. There are several pricing tiers for the API. If you do not use the API, then value of MLS is to create rapid experiments ($20/month). The resulting model is not exportable to use, thus you’ll have to recreate the algorithms in either R or Python, which is what I did. MLS results gave me a direction to work with, the actual work is mostly done in R and Python outside of MLS."
"The licensing cost is very cheap. It's less than $50 a month."
"From a developer's perspective, I find the price of this solution high."
"On a scale from one to ten, with ten being overpriced, I would rate the price of this solution at six."
"There is a lack of certainty with the solution's pricing."
"The pricing for Microsoft products can be complex due to changes and being cloud-based, so it's not straightforward. I've been familiar with it for years, but sometimes details about product licenses and distribution can be unclear. For Microsoft Azure Machine Learning Studio specifically, I would rate the price a six out of ten."
"The solution cost is high."
