    For [a] data scientist require[d] to build a machine learning model, so he/she didn't worry about infrastructure to maintain it.
    All kind of feature[s] such as train, build, deploy and monitor the machine learning model available in a single suite.
    If someone has [their] own environment for ML studio, so there [it would] not [be] useful for them.

    Hugging Face
    If an organisation has more access to data and have access to high end computers like GPUs it’s recommended to use Hugging face as it will give better accuracy than any other models. If an organisation having less data and has less access to GPUsis looking for decent performance then traditional algorithms are more appropriate than hugging face

    Pros
    Microsoft
    • User friendliness: This is by far the most user friendly tool I've seen in analytics. You don't need to know how to code at all! Just create a few blocks, connect a few lines and you are capable of running a boosted decision tree with a very high R squared!
    • Speed: Azure ML is a cloud based tool, so processing is not made with your computer, making the reliability and speed top notch!
    • Cost: If you don't know how to code, this is by far the cheapest machine learning tool out there. I believe it costs less than $15/month. If you know how to code, then R is free.
    • Connectivity: It is super easy to embed R or Python codes on Azure ML. So if you want to do more advanced stuff, or use a model that is not yet available on Azure ML, you can simply paste the code on R or Python there!
    • Microsoft environment: Many many companies rely on the Microsoft suite. And Azure ML connects perfectly with Excel, CSV and Access files.

    Cons
    Microsoft
    • It would be great to have text tips that could ease new users to the platform, especially if an error shows up
    • Scenario-based documentation
    • Pre-processing of modules that had been previously run. Sometimes they need to be re-run for no apparent reason

    Hugging Face
    • Most of the Hugging face models are of big size, hence difficult to work if there is no access to high computational system like GPU.
    • It’s good to have some visualization tool in hugging face for viewing model architecture.
    • I recommend to implement hugging face lite version so that it can run on any system with less specifications.

    Usability

    Easy and fastest way to develop, test, deploy and monitor the machine learning model.
    - Easy to load the data set
    -Drag and drop the process of the Machine learning life cycle.

    Support is nonexistent. It's very frustrating to try and find someone to actually talk to. The robot chatbots are just not well trained.

    It is easier to learn, it has a very cost effective license for use, it has native build and created for Azure cloud services, and that makes it perfect when compared against the alternatives. As a Microsoft tool, it has been built to contain many visual features and improved usability even for non-specialist users.

    There are some other services offer similar capacity as to Hugging Face, but not entirely the same. For example, amazon web services have a machine learning service called Comprehend, which offer a set of easy to use APIs to do machine translation and entity recognition and some other common NLP use case.

    Return on Investment
    Microsoft
    • Productivity: Instead of coding and recoding, Azure ML helped my organization to get to meaningful results faster;
    • Cost: Azure ML can save hundreds (or even thousands) of dollars for an organization, since the license costs around $15/month per seat.
    • Focus on insights and not on statistics: Since running a model is so easy, analysts can focus more on recommendations and insights, rather than statistical details
