Have improved project workflows using faster response times and reduced data embedding costs
One thing that Cohere can improve is related to some distances when I am trying similarity search. Let's suppose I have provided textual data that has been embedded. I have to use some extra process from numpy after embedding the model. In the case of OpenAI embedding models, I do not have to use that extra process, and they provide lower distances compared to my results from Cohere. I was getting distances of approximately 0.005 sometimes, but in the case of Cohere, I was getting distances around 0.5 or sometimes more than that. I think that can be improved. It was possibly because of some configuration or the way I was using it, but I am not exactly sure about that.

Developed and deployed AI agents through a unified platform that supports integration with enterprise systems
We used AutoML feature for developing AI models automatically, but we are not comfortable with the performance of those models. We have to do some fine-tuning, hyperparameter optimization, and other optimizations to enhance the performance of the AI models. We are not fully leveraging the automation being provided by Google Vertex AI for building AI models. Google Vertex AI has to be enhanced to support agentic AI system development. AI agents have to be developed through Google Vertex AI. Additionally, RAG support, vector database support, knowledge graph support, integration with enterprise systems such as ERP, CRM, PLM, MES, and other enterprise systems need improvement. Automated workflow generation and automation could also be enhanced. At this point, we are completely satisfied with the features and functionalities of Google Vertex AI platform, but as we move towards autonomous systems through agentic AI paradigm, Google Vertex AI platform needs to be improved to facilitate agentic AI system design, development, deployment, monitoring, observability, governance, and security.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The best feature Cohere offers is the Reranking model."
"Cohere helped us with all three aspects: money is saved, time is saved, and we needed fewer resources to meet our end goals."
"Cohere has positively impacted my organization by helping our customers work more efficiently when creating requests, and the embedding results are of very high quality."
"When it creates a new test, it creates it almost 70 to 80% correctly without errors; the time savings are significant—what previously took one or two days can now be completed in two to three hours maximum."
"Cohere has helped my organization innovate and stay ahead in our industry as Cohere was better than Titan, and it helped us to secure the client's confidence and we moved from proof of concept to production."
"I assess the value of Cohere's API support in my business operations as easy to integrate."
"Speed has helped me in my day-to-day work, and I really notice the difference because it responds very quickly to LLM requests."
"Cohere positively impacted my organization by improving the performance of my RAG system."
"Vertex comes with inbuilt integration with GCP for data storage."
"The most valuable features of the solution are that it is quite flexible, and some of the services are almost low-code, with no-code services, so it gives agents flexibility to build the use cases according to the operational needs."
"It provides the most valuable external analytics."
"The monitoring feature is a true life-saver for data scientists. I give it a ten out of ten."
"The features I have found most valuable in Google Vertex AI are Gemini's large language models, which are currently among the best, and the vision tool of Gemini, which I consider quite good."
"With just one single platform, Google Vertex AI platform, we can achieve everything; we need not switch over to multiple tools, multiple platforms, as everything can be accomplished through this one single platform for integration with existing workflows, systems, tools, and databases."
"Vertex AI possesses multiple libraries, so it eliminates the need for extensive coding."
"The integration of AutoML features streamlines our machine-learning workflows."
 

Cons

"When performing similarity matching between text descriptions and the catalog descriptions created using Cohere, the matching could be improved."
"I believe Cohere can be improved technically by providing more feedback, logs, and metrics for embedding requests, as it currently appears to be a black box without any understanding of quality."
"The documentation and support could be improved, as there is limited documentation available on the web."
"I have not observed any measurable benefits or return on investment with Cohere."
"Cohere can be improved by having more integrations beyond its current offerings with Amazon."
"Cohere could improve in areas where the command model is not as creative as some larger LLMs available in the market, which is expected but noticeable in open-ended generative tasks."
"Cohere has text generation. I think it is mainly focused on AI search. If there was a way to combine the searches with images, I think it would be nice to include that."
"It's challenging for us to make a conclusion about quality enhancement by using reranking models, as solid evaluation methodology for reranking is still immature."
"Google Vertex AI is good in machine learning and AI, but it lacks optimization."
"Both major systems, Azure and Google, are not yet stabilized, especially their customer support."
"I think the technical documentation is not readily available in the tool."
"I've noticed that using chat activity often presents a broader range of options and insights for a well-constructed question. Improving the knowledge base could be a key aspect for enhancement—expanding the information sources to enhance the generation process."
"Google Vertex AI is quite complex to navigate and to start services with, as I need to do a lot of iterations to finally activate the services, which is one major flaw, although it is powerful."
"I'm not sure if I have suggestions for improvement."
"It would be beneficial to have certain features included in the future, such as image generators and text-to-speech solutions."
"Google can improve Google Vertex AI in terms of analysis and accuracy. When passing a very large context, instead of receiving vague responses, it would be better if the system could prompt users not to pass overly large prompts and provide clearer guidance on how to fine-tune Gemini for specific use cases."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice
