Director of Business Development at a educational organization with 1,001-5,000 employees
Good fit for medium-sized companies, and offers good AutoML feature
In future releases, I would like to see a more flexible environment. It's a good product for customization and developing products. But when we need the most control over the delivery, Watson isn't the best. We can't fix everything because we're working with a machine that's creating a product. And the ability to go in-depth and tweak our model easily would be really nice.
