Customization and integration empower diverse AI applications
We are familiar with most Google Cloud services, particularly infrastructure services, storage, compute, AI tools, containerization, GCP containerization, and cloud SQL. We are familiar with approximately eighty percent of Google's services, primarily related to infrastructure, AI, containers, backup, storage, and compute. We are familiar with Gemini AI and Google Vertex AI, and we have completed some exercises and cases with our customers for Google AI. We use automation in machine learning. I work with a team where everyone has specific responsibilities. We have design and development processes in place. Based on my experience, I would rate Google Vertex AI a 9 out of 10.

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

"With just one single platform, Google Vertex AI platform, we can achieve everything; we need not switch over to multiple tools, multiple platforms, as everything can be accomplished through this one single platform for integration with existing workflows, systems, tools, and databases."
"Vertex comes with inbuilt integration with GCP for data storage."
"It provides the most valuable external analytics."
"The best feature of Google Vertex AI is the ease of use, along with the integration with the rest of the Google ecosystem and the way models can be made available outside Google through endpoints."
"Google Vertex AI is better for deployment, configuration, delivery, licensing, and integration compared to other AI platforms."
"The most useful function of Google Vertex AI for me is the ease of integration, as we can easily create a prompt and integrate it into our current system."
"The most valuable features of the solution are that it is quite flexible, and some of the services are almost low-code, with no-code services, so it gives agents flexibility to build the use cases according to the operational needs."
"Google Vertex AI is an out-of-the-box and very easy-to-use solution."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Azure Machine Learning Studio is the ease of use for starting projects. It's simple to connect and view the results. Additionally, the solution works well with other Microsoft solutions, such as Power Automate or SQL Server. It is easy to use and to connect for analytics."
"Azure Machine Learning Studio's most valuable features are the package from Azure AutoML. It is quite powerful compared to the building of ML in Databricks or other AutoMLs from other companies, such as Google and Amazon."
"It is a scalable solution…It is a pretty stable solution…The solution's initial setup process was pretty straightforward."
"Scalability, in terms of running experiments concurrently is good. At max, I was able to run three different experiments concurrently."
"One of the notable advantages is that it offers both a visual designer, which is user-friendly, and an advanced coding option."
"It is a solution that can cover all the processes from data preparation to mobilization data while serving the clients and production."
"For the best, reliable results, it is the best solution to have in mind."
"​It has helped in reducing the time involved for coding using R and/or Python."
 

Cons

"The tool's documentation is not good. It is hard."
"It is not completely mature and needs some features and functions. The interface needs to be more user-friendly."
"I believe that Vertex AI is a robust platform, but its effectiveness depends significantly on the domain knowledge of the developer using it. While Vertex AI does offer support through the console UI in the Google Cloud environment, it is better suited for technical members who have a deeper understanding of machine learning concepts. The platform may be challenging for business process developers (BPDUs) who lack extensive technical knowledge, as it involves intricate customization and handling numerous parameters. Effectively utilizing Vertex AI requires not only familiarity with machine learning frameworks like TensorFlow or PyTorch but also a proficiency in Python programming. The complexity of these requirements might pose challenges for less technically oriented users, making it crucial to have a solid foundation in both machine learning principles and Python coding to extract the full value from Vertex AI. It would be beneficial to have a streamlined process where we can leverage the capabilities of Vertex AI directly through the BigQuery UI. This could involve functionalities such as creating machine learning models within the BigQuery UI, providing a more user-friendly and integrated experience. This would allow users to access and analyze data from BigQuery while simultaneously utilizing Vertex AI to build machine learning models, fostering a more cohesive and efficient workflow."
"I think the technical documentation is not readily available in the tool."
"It would be beneficial to have certain features included in the future, such as image generators and text-to-speech solutions."
"Google Vertex AI is quite complex to navigate and to start services with, as I need to do a lot of iterations to finally activate the services, which is one major flaw, although it is powerful."
"Both major systems, Azure and Google, are not yet stabilized, especially their customer support."
"The solution is stable, but it is quite slow. Maybe my data is too large, but I think that Google could improve Vertex AI's training time."
"I cannot comment on specific improvements yet as we are still exploring and need more time to identify the areas that require enhancements."
"The price could be improved."
"The speed of deployment should be faster, as should testing."
"The AutoML feature is very basic and they should improve it by using a more robust algorithm."
"Microsoft Azure Machine Learning Studio could improve in providing more efficient and cost-effective access to its tools for companies like mine."
"They should have a desktop version to work on the platform."
"For data science professionals or programmers I would rate this solution a four out of 10."
"The interface is a bit overloaded."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price structure is very clear"
"The Versa AI offers attractive pricing. With this pricing structure, I can leverage various opportunities to bring value to my business. It's a positive aspect worth considering."
"I think almost every tool offers a decent discount. In terms of credits or other stuff, every cloud provider provides a good number of incentives to onboard new clients."
"The solution's pricing is moderate."
"On a scale from one to ten, with ten being overpriced, I would rate the price of this solution at six."
"The solution operates on a pay-per-use model."
"The platform's price is low."
"From a developer's perspective, I find the price of this solution high."
"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."
"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."
"The solution cost is high."
"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."
