What is our primary use case?
Heavy.AI is my main tool for large-scale data plotting and analysis. We have a lot of geographical data which we process for IoT vehicle fleets and cell tower pings. For this, we analyze and plot the data. We also need a lot of CPU processing, so Heavy.AI helps us significantly in those cases.
A specific example of how I use Heavy.AI with vehicle fleet data involves AI-enabled hardware and sophisticated fleet asset management and fleet safety solutions that help with inspecting, maintaining, and managing our fleets. This helps our clients manage these fleets effectively.
What is most valuable?
The best features Heavy.AI offers are the CPU processing, analytics, and real-time geospatial visualization, which is excellent.
The real-time geospatial visualization helps my team by allowing us to create native dashboard maps instantly from large amounts of data, especially time-series data, along with multi-layer geographical data. Heavy.AI handles complex data very well.
Heavy.AI has impacted my organization positively, considering that geospatial data processing is one of our biggest services. Heavy.AI has been an integral part of providing these services to our clients.
What needs improvement?
Heavy.AI can be improved since it is a very large and comprehensive tool. For someone who does not have expertise in the tool, they will struggle somewhat, so I think it could be made easier for people.
The only other improvement Heavy.AI needs is increased user adoption.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Heavy.AI for around six months.
What was our ROI?
We did see a saving of time and cost because we had a one-stop shop where we could access GPU utilization along with plotting of geographical data. It saved us a lot of time and money.
What other advice do I have?
My advice to others looking into using Heavy.AI is to understand data and concepts in depth before using the tool rather than using it blindly. I give Heavy.AI a rating of 9.
