Find out what your peers are saying about Databricks, Microsoft, Alteryx and others in Data Science Platforms."It is one of the most complete and great customer service that I experienced with a software company/ecosystem."
"The initial setup is easy."
"The solution offers excellent predicting power. The accuracy and confidence have been great."
"Alteryx helps me do a lot of automation. The best thing about Alteryx is that you don't have to repeat the workflow over and over again. Unlike Excel, where you need to write formulas for each new file, Alteryx follows a consistent process. You can schedule and automate the workflow, even if the files change."
"Alteryx's connectivity is essential. We like the ability to connect the solution to multiple sources. It's easier than other data modeling and extraction solutions. It's built on a self-service concept, so it's easy for anyone to open the tool and directly import or export data from it."
"The product is very stable and super fast, five-star. It's significantly more stable than it's nearest competitor."
"The GUI is simple and it integrates with Python."
"The ease-of-use allows non-technical business users to directly create their own solutions without the use of additional development resources."
"The virtual environment is very good."
"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."
"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."
"The solution is stable."
"It helped us find find the optimal area for where our warehouse should be located."
"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 data integration component could most likely be improved to increase enterprise scalability."
"The solution can be made more affordable."
"There are a few imputation techniques which they really need to include."
"Alteryx's development environment could be improved as it requires installation locally and can't be developed in the cloud."
"It would be great if Alteryx could take third party tools and incorporate them."
"The solution can be quite complex in some aspects."
"The screen when you are looking into your workflows and your ETL processes needs to be improved. You cannot manage it very well."
"They can provide some pre-built tools for predictive analytics instead of us having to build all the tools. It should also be improved from the visualization aspect. It should have better visualization capabilities. There are tools out there that have better visualization capabilities, which Alteryx is lacking currently."
"The ability to schedule scripts for the building and monitoring of jobs would be an advantage for this platform."
"Anaconda should be optimized for RAM consumption."
"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."
"I think that the framework can be improved to make it easier for people to discover and use things on their own."
"I think better documentation or a step-by-step guide for installation would help, especially for on-premise users."
"When you install Anaconda for the first time, it's really difficult to update it."
"Having a small guide or video on the tool would help learn how to use it and what the features are."
"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."
