Great feature sets, works well with Docker and offers good documentation
Pros and Cons
  • "Optimization is very good in TensorFlow. There are many opportunities to do hyper-parameter training."
  • "It would be nice if the solution was in Hungarian. I would like more Hungarian NAT models."

What is our primary use case?

I have experience in NRP and time series forecasting and also in marketing-relevant tasks.

For example, I've used the workaround cutoffs to create a deep learning network to classify binary classification. I've done binary classification tasks and multi-label classification tasks. The multi-class classification is based on Hungarian and English texts. I have an ongoing project, where I created an LSTM and this LSTM is able to classify the text for cryptocurrencies. 

How has it helped my organization?

Pre-trained models are very important in terms of flow. It's a great opportunity to create very fast, new, deep learning models. 

What is most valuable?

Before version 2.X, PyTorch had features that were better than this product. Now that it's been updated, it's got all of those missing features and is much better. There's a significant difference.

Users are able to create deployments with Docker and TensorFlow. TensorFlow has a pre-trained model hub. It's a huge hub in a typical NLP or computer vision.

I've used TensorFlow in different areas within marketing tasks. For example, dynamic pricing solutions or classifications as to who will buy something or who will not buy something, or who will return. It's great to use in stock market scenarios, cryptocurrencies, foreign exchange markets, etc.

Optimization is very good in TensorFlow. There are many opportunities to do hyper-parameter training. 

What needs improvement?

I don't have too much experience with the dashboards in the solution, however, it's possible they could be improved.

I need to have more experience in the security aspect of the solution. It could, however, always develop this area more.

It would be nice if the solution was in Hungarian. I would like more Hungarian NLP models.

816,406 professionals have used our research since 2012.

For how long have I used the solution?

I've used the solution in the past 12 months. 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I haven't had any issues with stability so far. It's really reliable. There aren't issues with bugs or glitches or crashing.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The solution is absolutely scalable. My understanding of scalability is that when it comes to the solution, the learning task should run on the selected CPU. If I know how it should be and how it should be run, it's very easy as TensorFlow can also run on one CPU core or even on a GPU and so on.

How are customer service and support?

Colab is great when I would like to learn something. You end up using Colab a lot. I like Jupyter Notebook and use it to create TensorFlow models.

There's also a lot of good documentation you can use to reference things and learn about the solution.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I have a bit of knowledge of PyTorch. I haven't used it much, however. I'm learning a bit about it now. While I don't have practical experience, I am taking a Coursera course that uses it.

In university, maybe ten years ago, I might have used something in MATLAB. I didn't have too much experience or too much knowledge about deep learning at that time, so I cannot say if it's hard or easy to do tasks in MATLAB or to compare the two. 

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup isn't too complex. It's pretty straightforward. There is a lot of good documentation. There are many good courses. There are many good books from professors - from Ph.D.'s to data scientists. It's very, very easy. It's not so complex.

The deployment didn't take a very long time. In my experience, it only really took a few days. That is if a baseline model is enough for the client. Of course, if the requirement is an optimized model, it can be weeks or even a month.

The data processing, hyperparameter tuning, CPUs, and GPUs are all very, very important. If I have a very, very strong machine, I can do everything very fast, and it's a huge help for me.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

I don't pay for the solution.

It's my understanding that if you want technical support you need to pay.

What other advice do I have?

I'm just a user. I'm not a reseller or consultant.

I'm learning TensorFlow so I would like to do a TensorFlow certificate from Google in January or February. I'm learning how to deploy Poker with TensorFlow. It's new territory for me, however, it is very important.

I'm not sure which version of the solution I'm using. I have more developed servers and I'm using different versions.

I can recommend TensorFlow to anybody that wants to create deep learning models.

I'd rate the solution ten out of ten. I've been quite happy with it so far.

Useful features, great tool for developers, and reliable
Pros and Cons
  • "Edge computing has some limited resources but TensorFlow has been improving in its features. It is a great tool for developers."
  • "There are a lot of problems, such as integrating our custom code. In my experience model tuning has been a bit difficult to edit and tune the graph model for best performance. We have to go into the model but we do not have a model viewer for quick access."

What is our primary use case?

I am using TensorFlow for many computing projects, such as image data analysis, data compressions, and data processing.

I have used TensorFlow GS, TensorFlow for mobile, and TensorFlow Lite. The way things operate is changing from a server-side to edge computing and mobile devices. I have been working on how to reduce the resource usage, we have downgraded and should have good performance with the best accuracy in our machine and models.

What is most valuable?

Edge computing has some limited resources but TensorFlow has been improving in its features. It is a great tool for developers.

What needs improvement?

There are a lot of problems, such as integrating our custom code. In my experience model tuning has been a bit difficult to edit and tune the graph model for best performance. We have to go into the model but we do not have a model viewer for quick access.

There should be better integration and standardization with different operating systems. We need to always convert from one model to another and there is not a single standardized model output that we could use on different platforms, such as Intel x56, x64 based, AR-based, or Apple M1 chips.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using this solution within the last 12 months.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

TensorFlow is a reliable solution, but we have not explored all the aspects of TensorFlow. We have been building our customized applications, such as libraries, features, or functions. We only use the features that allow our application to work. Different areas need to be researched on a low level to make them more efficient.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

We have been working on specific applications and any model built on TensorFlow can be applied to any scalable level. The solution has built-in scalability.

How are customer service and technical support?

I have not needed to use technical support.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

I did not require a license for this solution. It a free open-source solution.

What other advice do I have?

I rate TensorFlow a ten out of ten.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Pros and Cons
  • "It's got quite a big community, which is useful."
  • "Personally, I find it to be a bit too much AI-oriented."

What is our primary use case?

I use this solution out of personal interest — for AI.

Our company doesn't use it too much. We tend to use OpenML, which is included in the OpenCV package, OpenML. 

What is most valuable?

It's got quite a big community, which is useful.

What needs improvement?

I tend to find it to be a bit too much orientated to AI itself for other use cases, which is fine — that's what it's designed for. Personally, I find it to be a bit too much AI-oriented.

For how long have I used the solution?

We have been using TensorFlow for roughly five years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

We haven't had any issues stability-wise or scalability-wise. I tend to use it with Python. It seems okay. It works fine. 

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup was straightforward.

What other advice do I have?

I would happily recommend TensorFlow to people who are looking to use it for AI. Overall, on a scale from one to ten, I would give this solution a rating of eight.
