If you want to scale your model development, you need Neptune.

MLflow is great for Data Scientists and ML engineers looking for a basic ML lifecycle platform.
But it doesn’t give you the functionality or collaborative features you need
as your team and metadata management grow in size. Neptune does.

- Functionality:
- experiment tracking
- model registry
- model packaging
- pipelines
- Open-source
- Community support
- Functionality:
- experiment tracking
- model registry
- SaaS or deployed on your infra
- Advanced UI
- User access management
- Collaboration features
- Dedicated user support
- Security and compliance (SOC 2)
Choose Neptune when bare-bones metadata management is holding you back
SaaS = Zero maintenance
It’s frustrating to spend your days dealing with storage & backups, managing user access, and setting up autoscaling for your servers. Not to mention the need to create new instances for every project.
Neptune’s SaaS solution lets you work on multiple projects & handles your backend automatically. So you can focus on managing your model development.
Created for collaboration
The limitations of open-source software for access management and experiment sharing start to bite as soon as your team expands.
Packed with collaborative features — like customizable workspaces and persistent shareable links — Neptune takes team management off your to-do list.

Debug your models faster with a flexible User Interface
Neptune allows you to compare all of your metadata in a clean, easy-to-navigate, and responsive User Interface. With searchable side-by-side run tables, parallel coordinates plots, and learning curve charts, Neptune makes it easy to analyze experiments.

Will scale. Won’t fail.
Neptune won’t freeze up faced with large streams of logs running 1000s of experiments at once. And even when rendering complex charts to view your data ― like Matpolib figures or Bokeh plots ― Neptune will never slow you down.
