What do you like best about IBM Watson Studio?

Every data scientist has many tools in his/her notebook - and this is great for research and exploration. But when it comes to real world projects you need to simplify and integrate it. This is the best thing I found in Watson Studio - a simplified and integrated workbench for doing productive data science projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IBM Watson Studio?

When you have your own tools, you have much more flexibility, specially for research and exploration. So, if you are a very experienced data scientist, you will find some limitations in an integrated environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering IBM Watson Studio:

IT is really worth a try. Many things to simplify the AI projects lifecycle. You can start with a free account, that has almost all features (it is probably all - I did not find anything excluded from the free version except the timed use of some features). So you can experiment with that a lot before you decide to buy a licence. You can draw a flow including your data inputs, data prepartion, data cleaning, test it with many different algoritms, see the intermediate results and evaluate the results with pre built metrics. You also can add jupyter notebooks, use RStudio and write R code, connect with multiple other IBM cloud services like natural language classification, data refinery flow, visual recognition, among others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is IBM Watson Studio solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are developing an intelligent solution to read, understand and extract information from unustructured documents to provide some business teams agility in asnwering them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IBM Watson Studio?

I find it a bit uncomfortable while switching between IBM Cloud and IBM Watson Studio instance. I felt like I should be able to browse everything from the same page rather than having to launch the services in separate tabs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't really know mainly because I only used it for a hackathon and not for a company. There was nothing I disliked. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about IBM Watson Studio?

When I was using Watson Studio, it was fairly well integrated w/ Watson Cloud, allowing one to spin up infrastructure to connect to your analytics assets built with Watson Studio. This was good Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IBM Watson Studio?

This is basically SPSS Modeler, but in the cloud. It suffers from the same issues Modeler suffered from a data-science/ML dev perspective, little ability to customize elements of your model stack, clunky integration w/ custom outside code (R or Python). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering IBM Watson Studio:

GUI tools for data science are usually not the solution to deeper (or even elementary) analytics challenges. Do yourself a favor and look for good talent, instead of buying licenses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is IBM Watson Studio solving and how is that benefiting you?

Bootstrapping analytics output w/ a team that does not have much data science talent Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about IBM Watson Studio?

I am a fan of the extensive APIs that Watson STT provides for transcription. We have also used them heavily for training the language models.

The APIs allow us to connect Watson to our Video cloud services - and make the process seamless. We have created an end to end Closed captioning platform based off Watson STT , the APIs and integrations with our video cloud.

This solves a big need for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IBM Watson Studio?

I'd like the language models to be improved periodically.

For an education company such as ours, the ability to generate high accuracy transcripts right off the bat are a huge difference maker. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is IBM Watson Studio solving and how is that benefiting you?

As an organization that produces a lot of video content being able to transcribe our content with improving degrees of accuracy is vital to serving our students needs. We use Watson to create Closed Captions for Video on demand and Live. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about IBM Watson Studio?

Easy to install / upgrade / maintain

Intuitive GUI for the newbie to begin using the studio

Integration with Spark

Asset and community access Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IBM Watson Studio?

The videos in the tutorials are all on Youtbe which are usually blocked on most of work campuses.

Cannot be embedded into mobile apps except CoreML in iOS app.

Since the features are changing continuously, some of the tutorials don't fit the current version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is IBM Watson Studio solving and how is that benefiting you?

We could very quickly model a customer loyalty machine learning model and with the help of Data Catalog and Data Refinery we could profile data before modeling it.

We could use several different tools in one place. We use SPSS and Jupyter Notebook to build models. It is also great for non-technical persons to explore and discover data and to collaborate with other people. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
