Find out what your peers are saying about Databricks, Microsoft, Alteryx and others in Data Science Platforms."The most advantageous feature is the logic building."
"The best part of Anaconda is the media distribution that comes as part of it. It gets us started very quickly."
"The most valuable feature is the set of libraries that are used to support the functionality that we require."
"It's interesting. It's user friendly. That's what makes it outstanding among the others. It has a collection of R, Python, and others. Their platform strategy has a collection of many other visualization tools, apart from Spyder and RStudio, which is really helpful for data science. For any data science professional, Anaconda is really handy. It has almost all the tools for data science."
"The most valuable feature is the Jupyter notebook that allows us to write the Python code, compile it on the fly, and then look at the results."
"With Anaconda Navigator, we have been able to use multiple IDEs such as JupyterLab, Jupyter Notebook, Spyder, Visual Studio Code, and RStudio in one place. The platform-agnostic package manager, "Conda", makes life easy when it comes to managing and installing packages."
"The product is responsive, sleek and has a beautiful interface that is pleasant to use. It helps users to easily share code."
"It helped us find find the optimal area for where our warehouse should be located."
"The user interface is quite good for developing reports out of models."
"Data integration is very good."
"A robust solution."
"I like the product's capabilities. The clarity and scenarios are the main features that allow us to forecast using machine learning algorithms and make decisions."
"The tool's most valuable features are the BI and planning functionalities. I value being able to integrate smart planning with BI for analysis. The solution is user-friendly."
"The most valuable feature of SAP Analytics Cloud is its integration with SAP."
"Technical support is helpful."
"SAP Analytics Cloud is very easy to use, and you don't require much technology. It has a very good library and analytics. It is easy to configure and offers good visualization."
"One thing that hurts the product is that the company is not doing more to advertise it as a solution and make it more well known."
"One feature that I would like to see is being able to use a different language in a different cell, which would allow me to mix R and Python together."
"The ability to schedule scripts for the building and monitoring of jobs would be an advantage for this platform."
"It crashes once in a while. In case of a reboot or something unexpected, the unseen code part will get diminished, and it relatively takes longer than other applications when a reboot is happening. They can improve in these areas. They can also bring some database software. They have software for analytics and virtualization. However, they don't have any software for the database."
"Anaconda could benefit from improvement in its user interface to make it more attractive and user-friendly. Currently, it's boring."
"When you install Anaconda for the first time, it's really difficult to update it."
"I think that the framework can be improved to make it easier for people to discover and use things on their own."
"Having a small guide or video on the tool would help learn how to use it and what the features are."
"SAP Analytics cloud needs better exporting options."
"The solution should include other scripting languages as well, such as Python."
"An area for improvement in SAP Analytics Cloud is its planning feature because it's not that efficient when compared to BPC. Another area for improvement in the solution is the difficulty in building reports or dashboards, particularly if you don't have proper knowledge of the BI system. SAP Analytics Cloud technical support also needs improvement."
"The integration with other vendors and solutions could be improved."
"It seems like there's a problem with the tool's licenses. If there are a lot of users, like 200, who only use the solution once a year, paying for a full-year license for each user is expensive. There's no option for users who only use the solution occasionally."
"SAP Analytics Cloud requires a lot of coding and I would like the coding to be somewhat minimal."
"The customizations need to be better."
"They need a better scalability rate."
