Great feature sets, works well with Docker and offers good documentation
Pros and Cons
  • "Optimization is very good in TensorFlow. There are many opportunities to do hyper-parameter training."
  • "It would be nice if the solution was in Hungarian. I would like more Hungarian NAT models."

What is our primary use case?

I have experience in NRP and time series forecasting and also in marketing-relevant tasks.

For example, I've used the workaround cutoffs to create a deep learning network to classify binary classification. I've done binary classification tasks and multi-label classification tasks. The multi-class classification is based on Hungarian and English texts. I have an ongoing project, where I created an LSTM and this LSTM is able to classify the text for cryptocurrencies. 

How has it helped my organization?

Pre-trained models are very important in terms of flow. It's a great opportunity to create very fast, new, deep learning models. 

What is most valuable?

Before version 2.X, PyTorch had features that were better than this product. Now that it's been updated, it's got all of those missing features and is much better. There's a significant difference.

Users are able to create deployments with Docker and TensorFlow. TensorFlow has a pre-trained model hub. It's a huge hub in a typical NLP or computer vision.

I've used TensorFlow in different areas within marketing tasks. For example, dynamic pricing solutions or classifications as to who will buy something or who will not buy something, or who will return. It's great to use in stock market scenarios, cryptocurrencies, foreign exchange markets, etc.

Optimization is very good in TensorFlow. There are many opportunities to do hyper-parameter training. 

What needs improvement?

I don't have too much experience with the dashboards in the solution, however, it's possible they could be improved.

I need to have more experience in the security aspect of the solution. It could, however, always develop this area more.

It would be nice if the solution was in Hungarian. I would like more Hungarian NLP models.

881,114 professionals have used our research since 2012.

For how long have I used the solution?

I've used the solution in the past 12 months. 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I haven't had any issues with stability so far. It's really reliable. There aren't issues with bugs or glitches or crashing.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The solution is absolutely scalable. My understanding of scalability is that when it comes to the solution, the learning task should run on the selected CPU. If I know how it should be and how it should be run, it's very easy as TensorFlow can also run on one CPU core or even on a GPU and so on.

How are customer service and support?

Colab is great when I would like to learn something. You end up using Colab a lot. I like Jupyter Notebook and use it to create TensorFlow models.

There's also a lot of good documentation you can use to reference things and learn about the solution.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I have a bit of knowledge of PyTorch. I haven't used it much, however. I'm learning a bit about it now. While I don't have practical experience, I am taking a Coursera course that uses it.

In university, maybe ten years ago, I might have used something in MATLAB. I didn't have too much experience or too much knowledge about deep learning at that time, so I cannot say if it's hard or easy to do tasks in MATLAB or to compare the two. 

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup isn't too complex. It's pretty straightforward. There is a lot of good documentation. There are many good courses. There are many good books from professors - from Ph.D.'s to data scientists. It's very, very easy. It's not so complex.

The deployment didn't take a very long time. In my experience, it only really took a few days. That is if a baseline model is enough for the client. Of course, if the requirement is an optimized model, it can be weeks or even a month.

The data processing, hyperparameter tuning, CPUs, and GPUs are all very, very important. If I have a very, very strong machine, I can do everything very fast, and it's a huge help for me.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

I don't pay for the solution.

It's my understanding that if you want technical support you need to pay.

What other advice do I have?

I'm just a user. I'm not a reseller or consultant.

I'm learning TensorFlow so I would like to do a TensorFlow certificate from Google in January or February. I'm learning how to deploy Poker with TensorFlow. It's new territory for me, however, it is very important.

I'm not sure which version of the solution I'm using. I have more developed servers and I'm using different versions.

I can recommend TensorFlow to anybody that wants to create deep learning models.

I'd rate the solution ten out of ten. I've been quite happy with it so far. 

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Open-source, good documentation, easy to set up, and it's reliable
Pros and Cons
  • "The most valuable features are the frameworks and the functionality to work with different data, even when we have a certain quantity of data flowing."
  • "There are connection issues that interrupt the download needed for the data sets. We need to prepare them ourselves."

What is our primary use case?

I use this solution to create Neural Networks, which are computer algorithms for the recognition of objects. This is done based on the SL object that predefines it.

Most of our experience is computer related, but in most cases, we work with images.

How has it helped my organization?

Our company was working on a specific project that required a graph. It is now under development and TensorFlow allows us to implement this functionality for the customer who needs to work with recognizing and defining the special mark on the student's workbooks.

What is most valuable?

The most valuable features are the frameworks and the functionality to work with different data, even when we have a certain quantity of data flowing.

What needs improvement?

There are connection issues that interrupt the download needed for the data sets. We need to prepare them ourselves.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using TensorFlow for one year.

I have experience not just in TensorFlow, but in the TensorFlow Keras, beginning from TensorFlow 2.0, there are package Keras in TensorFlow. Using this cache, I have created some Neural Networks on Python.

I am using the latest version.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

It's a stable product.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

It's a scalable solution and we can scale it for different tasks.

We have two specialists that are connected to TensorFlow.

How are customer service and technical support?

We have not contacted technical support.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

Before using TensorFlow, we used different neural networks that were based on Darknet.

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup was easy. There is a lot of documentation available and it was not a problem for us.

It was easy to install.

Setting up TensorFlow on the local computer will take one to two hours to complete. However, if it is for an industrial product that has entered the market and needs to work in the real environment, it would depend on the goal and task that we are working on. 

What about the implementation team?

We completed the installation ourselves without any external help.

Maintenance is based on the customer's needs. We have approximately 40 developers, so if the customer requires maintenance and support then we can provide that for them.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

We are using the free version.

What other advice do I have?

I would recommend TensorFlow for techniques that need to develop Neural Networks. I would also recommend PyTorch.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Pros and Cons
  • "It's got quite a big community, which is useful."
  • "Personally, I find it to be a bit too much AI-oriented."

What is our primary use case?

I use this solution out of personal interest — for AI.

Our company doesn't use it too much. We tend to use OpenML, which is included in the OpenCV package, OpenML. 

What is most valuable?

It's got quite a big community, which is useful.

What needs improvement?

I tend to find it to be a bit too much orientated to AI itself for other use cases, which is fine — that's what it's designed for. Personally, I find it to be a bit too much AI-oriented.

For how long have I used the solution?

We have been using TensorFlow for roughly five years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

We haven't had any issues stability-wise or scalability-wise. I tend to use it with Python. It seems okay. It works fine. 

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup was straightforward.

What other advice do I have?

I would happily recommend TensorFlow to people who are looking to use it for AI. Overall, on a scale from one to ten, I would give this solution a rating of eight.
