Anup Karade - PeerSpot reviewer
Created a chatbot powered by OpenAI to answer HR, travel, and expense-related questions
We have created our own platform called CanvasAI. It provides machine-learning plumbing and integration with your services. So, we've integrated Azure OpenAI through Canvas. We're also looking at some hard interface modeling from AWS as well. We access Azure OpenAI solutions for our business workflow via the platform, not directly from the service provider. There are security considerations we're working through with the security team, etc. Canvas provides the control plane, which handles RBAC for user registration and model management. For internal processes, we're using OpenAI to create partner call reports, like summarizing quarterly zip code data and other financial models. We also use it for legal and contract stuff, like comparing SOWs and contracts. For user experience, we've created a chatbot powered by OpenAI to answer HR, travel, and expense-related questions.

A free toolkit providing improved neural network performance
The model optimization is a little bit slow — it could be improved. They should introduce some type of deep learning accelerator, like Jetson Xavier NX. There is a lacking in vehicle recognition — types of vehicles. Differentiating between cars, SUVs and different types of light, heavy, and medium trucks can be tricky. We have to train such models ourselves and then transfer them onto OpenVINO.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Generative AI or GenAI seems to be the best part of the solution."
"The most crucial aspect is the conversational capability, where you can simply ask questions, and it provides answers based on your content and documents, particularly tailored to your specific environment."
"The most valuable feature is the ALM."
"GPT was useful for our projects."
"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."
"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."
"The inferencing and processing capabilities are quite beneficial for our requirements."
"The initial setup is quite simple."
"The features for model comparison, the feature for model testing, evaluation, and deployment are very nice. It can work almost with all the models."
 

Cons

"Azure OpenAI is not available in all regions, and its technical support should be improved."
"We encountered challenges related to question understanding."
"The solution needs to accommodate smaller companies."
"The dialogue manager needs to be improved."
"There is room for improvement in their support services."
"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."
"Since we don't train the model on our data, it's a struggle to ensure OpenAI answers questions exclusively from our data. During user testing, we found ways to make the system provide answers from outside sources."
"The product must improve its dashboards."
"It has some disadvantages because when you're working with very complex models, neural networks if OpenVINO cannot convert them automatically and you have to do a custom layer and later add it to the model. It is difficult."
"At this point, the product could probably just use a greater integration with more machine learning model tools."
"The model optimization is a little bit slow — it could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Cost-wise, the product's price is a bit on the higher side."
"The cost is quite high and fixed."
"While the product meets our business requirements well, I consider it relatively expensive, especially for individual users like myself."
"The cost structure depends on the volume of data processed and the computational resources required."
"If you consider the long-term aspect of any project, Azure OpenAI is a costly solution."
"The solution's pricing is normal worldwide but expensive in Turkey because Turkey's currency is different."
"I'm uncertain about the licensing, specifically the pricing. This falls under the purview of other teams, particularly the sales teams. I am not informed about the pricing details."
"Azure OpenAI is a bit more expensive than other services."
"We didn't have to pay for any licensing with Intel OpenVINO. Everything is available on their site and easily downloadable for free."
