The summary above is based on 35 interviews we conducted recently with Microsoft Azure Machine Learning Studio and Azure OpenAI users. To access the review's full transcripts, download our report.
"We have many use cases for the solution, such as digitalizing records, a chatbot looking at records, and being able to use generative AI on them."
"Its versatility makes it incredibly useful for technical problem-solving, content creation, data analytics, and more."
"The product saves a lot of time."
"My goal was to create an experience where project managers don't have to read through entire documents. Instead, they can ask a question and receive relevant point analysis. This analysis identifies the document and specific section where the information resides. Previously, users had to rely on these document references. Now, Azure OpenAI enhances the experience by providing the answer directly in the user's own language, relevant to their context."
"OpenAI's models are more mature than Watson's. They offer a wider range of features and provide richer outputs."
"It's very powerful. It allows users to query our documents using natural language and receive answers in the same way. This makes our product information much more accessible than traditional keyword-based search."
"Azure OpenAI is easy to use because the endpoints are created, and we just need to pass our parameters and info."
"It is easy to integrate and develop a solution. Most customers are concerned about the security of their data and how cost-effective it is. We have developed some methodologies so that our customers will not be charged too much for these OpenAI services but will still get the same kind of performance and results. It's all developed on Azure, so customers also see its benefit."
"The most valuable feature of Azure Machine Learning Studio for me is its convenience. I can quickly start using it without setting up the environment or buying a lot of devices."
"Their support is helpful."
"Regarding the technical support for the solution, I find the documentation provided comprehensive and helpful."
"It is very easy to test different kinds of machine-learning algorithms with different parameters. You choose the algorithm, drag and drop to the workspace, and plug the dataset into this component."
"The graphical nature of the output makes it very easy to create PowerPoint reports as well."
"The interface is very intuitive."
"The product supports open-source tools."
"The learning curve is very low. Operationalizing the model is also very easy within the Azure ecosystem."
"The product must improve its dashboards."
"I have found the tool unreliable in certain use cases. I aim to enhance the system's latency, particularly in responding to calls. Occasionally, calls don't respond, so I want to improve reliability."
"The product features themselves are fine. However, with Microsoft scaling the service so much, the support structure needs to keep pace. When solving complex issues, the process of interacting with Microsoft can be quite time-consuming."
"We encountered challenges related to question understanding."
"Latency performance is a major part. And I'm seeking support for multiple models that handle text, images, videos, and voice. I'm from India, and I'm looking for more support in Indian languages. There are 18 official languages and many more unofficial. We need support for these languages, especially in voice moderation, which is not yet available."
"Azure OpenAI is not available in all regions, and its technical support should be improved."
"I faced one issue with Azure OpenAI: My customer wanted more clarity on the pricing. They were not able to get proper answers from the documentation or the pricing calculator. I suggest that Microsoft maintain standardization in the pricing details published in the documentation and the pricing calculator."
"The fine-tuning of models with the use of Azure OpenAI is an area with certain shortcomings currently, and it can be considered for improvement in the future."
"I would like to see modules to handle Deep Learning frameworks."
"If you want to be able to deploy your tools outside of Microsoft Azure, this is not the best choice."
"The price of the solution has room for improvement."
"In terms of improvement, I'd like to have more ability to construct and understand the detailed impact of the variables on the model. Their algorithms are very powerful and they explain overall the net contribution of each of the variables to the solution. In terms of being able to say to people "If you did this, you'll get this much more improvement" it wasn't great."
"It is not easy. It is a complex solution. It takes some time to get exposed to all the concepts. We're trying to have a CI/CD pipeline to deploy a machine learning model using negative actions. It was not easy. The components that we're using might have something to do with this."
"When you use different Microsoft tools, there are different pricing metrics. It doesn't make sense. The pricing metrics are quire difficult to understand and should be either clarified or simplified. It would help us sell the solution to customers."
"Enable creating ensemble models easier, adding more machine learning algorithms."
"The interface is a bit overloaded."
