"Easy to use Facial Recognition API"

5/5

What do you like best about Azure Face API?

Azure Face API is an amazing tool because it allows developers to incorporate facial recognition technology in their software without requiring them to know anything about machine learning or computer vision. Developers who already use the Azure platform will be able to use this API within minutes. Simply send the picture(s) you would like to analyze in an API call, and Azure will return information about the faces in that picture as JSON. This is useful for recognizing facial expressions, emotions, and comparing faces. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Face API?

The age estimation feature isn't very accurate yet. However, as time goes on, this will hopefully get better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Azure Face API"

4/5

What do you like best about Azure Face API?

Definitely this is an upcoming area for the Microsoft Azure Cognitive Services. Will definitely recommend to all developers to try this once as Microsoft provides a 30 day trial for these services which will help us to understand the scope and level of usage of these services for our applications.These services are really useful for applications which have validations of images/ photos against any id proofs or to search image against social accounts of the specific user. In Face API services itself, there are group based and person based api's which also can be useful when we have multiple photos of the same person to be stored and need to compare against list .
