Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"In MLOps, when we are designing the data pipeline, the designing of the data pipeline is easy in Google Cloud.""Google Cloud Datalab is very customizable.""The APIs are valuable.""The infrastructure is highly reliable and efficient, contributing to a positive experience.""All of the features of this product are quite good."

"Very good data aggregation.""We have been able to do some predictive modeling with it""Automation is great and this product is very organized.""We have a local representative who specializes in SPSS. He will help us do the PoC.""It's a very organized product. It's easy to use.""Automated modelling, classification, or clustering are very useful.""It is just a lot faster. So you do not have to write a bunch of code, you can throw that stuff on there pretty quickly and do prototyping quickly.""It is pretty scalable."

Cons
"We have also encountered challenges during our transition period in terms of data control and segmentation. The management of each channel and data structure as it has its own unique characteristics requires very detailed and precise control. The allocation should be appropriate and the complexity increases due to the different time zones and geographic locations of our clients. The process usually involves migrating the existing database sets to gcp and ensure data integrity is maintained. This is the only challenge that we faced while navigating the integers of the solution and honestly it was an interesting and unique experience.""There is room for improvement in the graphical user interface. So that the initial user would use it properly, that would be a good option.""The product must be made more user-friendly.""Connectivity challenges for end-users, particularly when loading data, environments, and libraries, need to be addressed for an enhanced user experience.""The interface should be more user-friendly."

More Google Cloud Datalab Cons →

"It is not integrated with Qlik, Tableau, and Power BI.""If IBM could add some of the popular models into the SPSS for further analysis, like popular regression models, I think that would be a helpful improvement.""I think mapping for geographic data would also be a really great thing to be able to use.""I would like see more programming languages added, like MATLAB. That would be better.""Formula writing is not straightforward for an Excel user. Totally new set of functions, which takes time to learn and teach.""Expensive to deploy solutions. You need to buy an extra deployment unit.""It would be good if IBM added help resources to the interface.""The standard package (personal) is not supported for database connection."

  • "The product is cheap."
  • More Google Cloud Datalab Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Having in mind all four tools from Garner’s top quadrant, the pricing of this tool is competitive and it reflects the quality that it offers."
  • "If you are in a university and the license is free then you can use the tool without any charges, which is good."
  • "It is a huge increase to time savings."
  • "The scalability was kind of limited by our ability to get other people licenses, and that was usually more of a financial constraint. It's expensive, but it's a good tool."
  • "When you are close to end of quarter, IBM and its partners can get you 60% to 70% discounts, so literally wait for the last day of the quarter for the best prices. You may feel like you are getting robbed if you can't receive a good discount."
  • "It got us a good amount of money with quick and efficient modeling."
  • "$5,000 annually."
  • "This tool, being an IBM product, is pretty expensive."
