One of the characteristics that differentiate Watson Studio is the open platform, intuitive interface, and flexibility. I had a team of college data scientist interns and they were using Watson Studio on the first day! The support and access to the IBM brain trust was nothing short than outstanding! And beyond that, the same level of support was provided for the long term. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
