Partner, AI and Machine Learning at a consultancy with 11-50 employees
Portable code has empowered cross‑client data science and now supports collaborative AI projects
Machine learning AI platforms like Domino Data Science Platform have the problem that they need to demonstrate well to citizen data scientists and technology management, so they need to make AI look easy. They also need to demonstrate well to professional data scientists who want to have their hands on as much power and scalability as possible. Lastly, they need to serve what we call MLOps engineers and software engineers to take the models and move them to production deployment. Those three personalities want a tool to look three different ways, and Domino Data Science Platform does a really good job at that. Domino Data Science Platform makes it accessible to citizen data scientists with basic concepts for IT management, has robust abilities to serve professional data scientists, and also has abilities to help MLOps and DataOps people deploy. I think the ability to select your environment, your containers, and your scalability, to use lots of computing memory when you need it, and then build your model, create your architectures, and then scale back to different sizes of the platforms as you need it is the area that Domino Data Science Platform stands out the most for professional data scientists. The ability to do the code yourself in Python and at the same time have automatic version control is really helpful too. I would highlight that Domino Data Science Platform is closer to Databricks, and while I have also used Dataiku, I would say that Dataiku is actually closer to the citizen data scientist platform.

A stable product that is easy to deploy and can be used for structured and unstructured data mining
We use the solution for predictive analytics to do structured and unstructured data mining I like the way the product visually shows the data pipeline. The product must provide better integration with cloud-native technologies. I have been using the solution for 20 years. The product is very…

Pros

"Domino Data Science Platform makes it accessible to citizen data scientists with basic concepts for IT management, has robust abilities to serve professional data scientists, and also has abilities to help MLOps and DataOps people deploy."
"The scalability of the solution is good; I'd rate it four out of five."
"The workspaces, which are like wrappers of Docker containers, made it easy to start development environments using Domino."
"We primarily use the solution for customer retention, but there are a lot of use cases for this particular product."
"In terms of my experience deploying models using Domino Data Science Platform, I have previously worked with Google Cloud and Vertex AI, as well as Azure Machine Learning Studio, but I find that Domino Data Lab is a much more advanced platform specifically tailored for model deployment, which significantly eases our workflow."
"It enables statistical modeling of data using Base SAS (another product from the same vendor) as the backbone."
"I found the ease of use of the solution the most valuable. Additionally, other valuable features include: the user interface, power to extract data, compatibility with other technologies (specifically with PS400), and automation of several tasks."
"The technical support is very good."
"The solution is able to handle quite large amounts of data beautifully."
"The solution is very good for data mining or any mining issues."
"Performance is excellent."
"I found the ease of use of the solution the most valuable."
"he solution is scalable."
 

Cons

"Regarding Domino Data Science Platform's AI capabilities, I find its governance and security to be basic at present."
"Improvement areas for Domino Data Science Platform could relate to resource monitoring capabilities; adding visuals that stakeholders can review would enhance awareness of resource usage and its impact on applications and costs."
"The predictive analysis feature needs improvement."
"The deployment of large language models (LLMs) could be improved."
"The solution is very stable, but we do have some problems with discrepancies involving SAS not matching with the latest Java versions. It's not stable in cases where SAS tries to run on a different version because SAS doesn't connect with the latest Java update. Once a month we need to restart systems from scratch."
"The license is really expensive. This solution is for large corporations because not everybody can afford it."
"The preparation of both the mining and modeling process could be improved. The solution requires data and will reflect data, but the preparation of the data is not useful for end-users; we ended up having to do the preparation in another tool."
"Virtualization could be much better."
"The solution needs an easier interface for the user. The user experience isn't so easy for our clients."
"While I don't personally need tutorials, I can't say that it wouldn't be helpful for others to have some to help them navigate and operate the system."
"The user interface of the solution needs improvement. It needs to be more visual."
"The product must provide better integration with cloud-native technologies."
