Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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.""Azure OpenAI is very easy to use instead of AWS services.""The product's initial setup phase was pretty easy.""The solution has a very drag-and-drop environment. Instead of coding something from scratch or understanding any concept in extensive depth before deployment, this is good. Plus, they have an auto dataset, which means you can choose any dataset they have instead of providing your own. So that's also pretty nice.""Our clients are interested in building knowledge bases, particularly in child welfare. In this domain, we focus on supporting caseworkers by compiling and organizing relevant information. This information is then stored in a database using a query. The database generates summaries and reminders for specific actions and even facilitates sending emails to parents or other relevant parties. The system's complexity is tailored to the specific needs of child welfare cases. Additionally, we're exploring opportunities to assist a healthcare organization. Specifically, we're working on streamlining the process of filling out forms required for insurance claims. This effort aims to ensure that hospitals can receive funding or payment for the care they provide.""Generative AI or GenAI seems to be the best part of the solution.""OpenAI integrates seamlessly with the broader Microsoft Azure ecosystem, and that provides synergies with the other solutions. This integration makes it much easier to build solutions.""Azure OpenAI is easy to use because the endpoints are created, and we just need to pass our parameters and info."

"On GCP, we are exposing our API services to our clients so that they send us their information. It can be single individual records or it can be a batch of their clients.""The solution is able to read 90% of the documents correctly with a 10% error rate.""A range of a a wide range of algorithms, EIM voice mails, which can be plugged in right away into your solution into into into our solution, and then have platform that provides know, to to come up with an operational solution really quick.""I think the user interface is quite handy, and it is easy to use as compared to the other cloud platforms.""Since the model could be trained in just a couple of hours and deploying it took only a few minutes, the entire process took less than an hour.""The initial setup is very straightforward.""Some of the valuable features are the vast amount of services that are available, such as load balancer, and the AI architecture."

Cons
"We encountered challenges related to question understanding.""Deployment was slightly complex for me to understand.""There are no available updates of information that are currently provided.""The product must improve its dashboards.""Azure OpenAI will be expensive if you want to implement it as a permanent solution for a customer.""The product features themselves are fine. However, with Microsoft scaling the service so much, the support structure needs to keep pace. When solving complex issues, the process of interacting with Microsoft can be quite time-consuming.""The solution needs to accommodate smaller companies.""Azure OpenAI is not an optimized tool yet, making it one of its shortcomings where improvements are required."

"At first, there were only the user-managed rules to identify the best attributes of the individual. Then, we came up with a truth set and developed different machine learning models with the help of that truth set, so now it's completely machine learning.""It could be more clear, and sometimes there are errors that I don't quite understand.""The solution can be improved by simplifying the process to make your own models.""The initial setup was straightforward for me but could be difficult for others.""Customizations are very difficult, and they take time.""I think it's the it it also has has evolved quite a bit over the last few years, and Google Cloud folks have been getting, more and more services. But I think from a improvement standpoint, so maybe they can look at adding more algorithms, so adding more AI algorithms to their suite.""One thing that I found is that Azure ML does not directly provide you with features on Google Cloud AI Platform, whereas Vertex provides some features of the platform."
