I am a data scientist and use Anaconda Platform for all my work on my local machine. It's a great all-in-one location where I can use Spyder, Jupyter notebooks, and more—all in the same place. I love that everything is downloaded together at once; I don't need to download and maintain separate versions of Python, Spyder, etc. It's easy to set up, with steps to guide you through. Overall, it's a great tool for data science and analytics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'm not sure if it exists, but there should be cloud compute support for Anaconda. I choose to do my work in the cloud so that I can deploy a GPU if needed, since my local doesn't have that. That would really make Anaconda more powerful and more useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
