DataRobot needs better integration, dataset handling, customization, model transparency, support, documentation, Python incorporation, generative AI, and pricing.
There are vulnerabilities to prompt injection attacks, and the AI can be tricked into leaking data or acting harmfully.
AI/ML Engineer
It needs to be smarter, utilizing better AI engines to combine data from various sources, and improve the intelligence of its answers, creativity, and document creation capabilities.
Manager & Co-Founder at Arido
Comet can be improved by being more stable and providing security features similar to Brave.
Cloud Operations Engineer at a tech vendor with 51-200 employees
If DataRobot also adds those data transformation capabilities, then it will be an end-to-end tool and the customer will not have to procure many tools for doing the ingestion and transformation process.
Advisory Solutions Architect at Dell Technologies
DataRobot is a UI-based tool, which means it cannot provide all the features I might manually implement through notebooks or Python.
Staff Specialist Data Scientist at a tech vendor with 5,001-10,000 employees
There is a lack of transparency in the models; sometimes it feels like a black box.
Senior Data Reporting Analyst at University of Bradford
 

Setup Cost

Comet offers straightforward pricing with cost-effective cloud solutions, flexible licensing, and seamless integration via AWS Marketplace.
DataRobot's pricing is seen as justified by some but costly for smaller organizations, affecting their purchase decisions.
I found it easy to understand the pricing and subscription models for faster integration.
Senior Data Scientist at a consultancy with 1-10 employees
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing is that I am using Perplexity, the pro version, which is connected to Comet, and together they provide me with very good results at a cost of only twenty dollars, which is acceptable to me.
Automation Engineer at MyDubai.io
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing is that it was all free.
AI/ML Engineer
The setup cost was minimal because it's cloud-hosted, eliminating the need for heavy on-premises infrastructure, allowing us to start using it immediately after purchase.

ML Engineer at a energy/utilities company with 51-200 employees
Centralized experiment tracking has improved reproducibility and collaboration across teams
Comet is a very powerful tool for experiment tracking and MLOps workflows, but the platform is somewhat complex for teams that are not initially familiar with the structured practices that have to be followed in MLOps. Understanding experiment organization, integrations, and tracking workflows requires some onboarding. Pricing is one of the major challenges that Comet is facing. As our organization has increased and many users and experiment tracking requirements have increased, the platform cost can increase very quickly. The platform delivers very strong value when the users have increased or experiment tracking has increased extensively. However, as the ML workload increases, the cost also increases very quickly. Smaller teams running a limited number of ML experiments may not be able to fully utilize its capabilities as a whole. Comet has good integration capabilities with popular ML frameworks, and the integration is very strong. While using some customized pipelines, we need to have some manual configuration, and some effort is needed in that area. The slight learning curve for teams that are unfamiliar with structured MLOps practices could have some improvement in that area. Some integrations with customized pipelines still require a lot of manual effort, which is one area that Comet could improve in. Pricing initially seemed very high compared to other open-source experiment tracking tools. However, once we integrated the platform into our workflows, the productivity improvements justified the investment.

Automation has improved efficiency and decision-making while big data handling and transparency still need work
Aside from the many advantages of DataRobot, I believe there are areas that could be improved based on my experience. There is a lack of transparency in the models; sometimes it feels like a black box. For example, when I uploaded a large data set of about two gigabytes for processing, the time taken was slower than expected. Additionally, the handling of bigger data sets could be better, as it performs extremely well with smaller datasets but can lag with larger ones. The integration with some other tools used in our organization can also be challenging, and more flexibility for custom pre-processing and advanced model tuning would be beneficial. In terms of support and documentation, I believe improvements are needed. For instance, the response time from DataRobot could be quicker, which would be appreciated when we need assistance. The documentation is generally sufficient, but it can be lengthy and could use more real-world examples and step-by-step tutorials for better clarity. Lastly, creating a client community where users can share experiences and solutions might enhance the overall value and learning curve.
