The platform recommends components and algorithms based on my goals. It helps me create data pipelines, build and train machine learning models, and finally deploy an end-to-end solution without writing a single line of code. Pros Azure Machine learning service makes it easy for almost anyone to build (Basic) end-to-end artificial intelligence solutions on the cloud without writing a single line of code. The Azure Machine Learning Designer has a drag-and-drop user interface that allows users to connect data sets, choose among recommended algorithms, and build pipelines on a visual canvas. It's a No-code/Low-code cloud-based solution that empowers non-technical business users to leverage the benefits of the world's big data, intuitive machine learning algorithms, and cutting-edge artificial intelligence technologies. The service is secured, scalable, and well-documented. Cons Although Azure Machine learning service facilitates the deployment of end-to-end solutions, it's still relatively complex and requires a solid computer science background and intermediate-level programming skills.

SO Suarez O. Student Education Management ### "Great for beginners" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 3.0 3.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 3.0 3.0 Likelihood to Recommend 8/10 April 15, 2021 I have tried to handle other data consolidation and programming tools and so far this has been the easiest for me. Furthermore, it can be integrated with other programming languages. However, it still needs some development. Pros I am not an expert in technology and computer science issues and it seems to me that with azure it is easy to consolidate data and import information from the PC. You only need to watch a couple of videos to understand how it works and follow the instructions. Cons The price is a bit high for independent consultants who do not have the support of large companies. It should also have a more comprehensive guide to using its features Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort.

Co-founder & Chief Product Officer Legal Services ### "Azure Machine Learning is Simply Awesome!" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 April 13, 2021 It's really amazing. We're able to offer many innovative things to our clients without investing much on engineering. Pros If you're new to Machine Learning there could be nothing better than Azure Machine Learning. The best part is without much coding knowledge you may leverage the benefits of Machine Learning. Intuitive UI and help materials make it even easier. Cons It's really hard to tell because the way Microsoft is evolving in terms of Azure and Machine Learning is really remarkable. Almost every day there is new addition to make life even easier. Reasons for choosing Azure Machine Learning We've been using Azure since day one at our business and it's a great experience and when Microsoft launched Machine Learning we explored and find that also phenomenal.

AU Anonymous User Graduate Research Assistant Higher Education ### "Huge improvements in the last 2 years" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 September 26, 2020 Overall, it has been positive. It's nice having a workspace where I can make VMs and not have to worry about breaking the Azure environment because it's compartmentalized now in Machine Learning. Pros 2 years ago, Azure's Machine Learning (known as Machine Learning Studio) tool option was a drag and drop tool that was slow and limited. Luckily, they got a lot of feedback from data scientists and people using their tools, and they modified their platform a lot so that a data scientist can provision Virtual Machines, connect to databases, and deploy trained machine learning models without needing infrastructure support. It's a great workspace for building models and deploying models now. Cons The hardest parts, as usual, is learning specifically how to do something in Azure. If you're coming from AWS, you'll have to relearn how to prototype models and how to deploy them. It's also a little more expensive than standard Azure services, as seems to be the case with machine learning on any platform.

AU Anonymous User Data Scientist Information Technology and Services ### "Easy to Use" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 3.0 3.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 8/10 September 26, 2020 The experience was fun because it has everything I need. The pricing is quite reasonable and does not add much of a financial strain. Pros I love that this allows me to explore models and see what I can do with them. It was easy to analyze the data and finalize what was to be done. If you are not so good at ML, this is the service for you as it makes it easier for you to understand without having to code extensively. They have a plethora of options for all your needs. Cons Sadly there were some issues with the UX which made it a bit difficult to navigate. Plus, there were not so many models as I expected and the fact that it was a bit difficult to use Python as the interface wasn't as intuitive. There were some hiccups when it came to complex models.
