Featured Reviews

Hemant Paralkar - PeerSpot reviewer
Improves team collaboration with advanced feature sharing but needs a better user experience
Improvement is needed in the no-code and low-code capabilities of Amazon SageMaker. This would empower citizen data scientists to utilize the tool more effectively since many data scientists do not have a core development background. Additionally, dealing with frequent UI updates can be challenging, especially for infrastructure architects like myself. It involves effort to migrate to new UIs, making the updates not seamless. User auditing requires enhancements as tracking operations performed by users can be difficult due to dynamic IP validation and role propagation.
VS
A straightforward initial setup and good reporting but needs better documentation
It would be ideal if it could be put onto the NMP where you can make more of an analysis. Right now, people don't have enough time to go through the report and make an analysis. It should provide the information of what is on the report into some kind of a dialogue form. Then, a person can ask certain questions and it could interactively give the required report. In terms of performance, I can see there are some issues when you are working with big data. When we are taking it from the Data Lake, we have a lot of issues. If you are doing certain operations of RDBMS, you suffer in terms of the latency of the data. That can be improved upon. Users should be able to cross tables of the web pages they are developing on Spotfire and this needs to be really easy and convenient. Right now, you need to do a lot of tweaks. The solution should be more user-friendly and require fewer tweaks, extensions, and workarounds.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The intuitive interface and streamlined user experience make it easy to navigate and set up various tools like Visual Studio Code or Jupyter Notebook."
"The product aggregates everything we need to build and deploy machine learning models in one place."
"Feature Store, CodeCommit, versioning, model control, and CI/CD pipelines are the most valuable features in Amazon SageMaker."
"The deployment is very good, where you only need to press a few buttons."
"We were able to use the product to automate processes."
"We've had experience with unique ML projects using SageMaker. For example, we're developing a platform similar to ChatGPT that requires models. We utilize Amazon SageMaker to create endpoints for these models, making accessing them convenient as needed."
"The evolution from SageMaker Classic to SageMaker Studio, particularly the UI part of Studio, is commendable."
"The technical support of the tool was good."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of setting up visualizations."
"The most valuable feature is the performance."
"We like the way we can drill down into each report to get back data on each project. From the portfolio level, I can see what is happening on it. That is a really important feature. I can look at indirect costs, for example, which are hitting each CIO portfolio. It's good to be able to see actual resources in terms of time as well as cost."
"The idea that you don't have to generate reports each day but they are sent automatically is great."
 

Cons

"The product must provide better documentation."
"The solution requires a lot of data to train the model."
"The model repository is a concern as models are stored on a bucket and there's an issue with versioning."
"Creating notebook instances for multiple users is pretty expensive in Amazon SageMaker."
"In general, improvements are needed on the performance side of the product's graphical user interface-related area since it consumes a lot of time for a user."
"Improvements are needed in terms of complexity, data security, and access policy integration in Amazon SageMaker."
"For any cloud provider, the cost has to be substantially reduced, especially in the case of Amazon SageMaker, which is extremely expensive for huge workloads."
"The main challenge with Amazon SageMaker is the integrations."
"I would like the visualization for the map of countries to be more easily configurable."
"The scripting for customization could be improved."
"Additional templates would help to get things moving more quickly in terms of getting the reports out."
"In terms of performance, I can see there are some issues when you are working with big data. When we are taking it from the Data Lake, we have a lot of issues."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"You don't pay for Sagemaker. You only pay for the compute instances in your storage."
"The pricing is comparable."
"Amazon SageMaker is a very expensive product."
"SageMaker is worth the money for our use case."
"On average, customers pay about $300,000 USD per month."
"The cost offers a pay-as-you-go pricing model. It depends on the instance that you do."
"There is no license required for the solution since you can use it on demand."
"The tool's pricing is reasonable."
