Overall Satisfaction with Anaconda

Anaconda Is largely used by myself, not by my organization, for management of my Python and Jupyter packages. Generally it does a pretty good job of importing and updating libraries that I use for utilization within Python programs.
  • Manage Python packages
  • Install Python and Jupyter notebook frameworks
  • Utilization of Python and Jupyter notebook shells
  • It is difficult to manage everything when you already have libraries or frameworks installed
  • Fairly slow initialization
  • Account requirements for some programs
Anaconda is great for managing Python libraries and frameworks. It does get a little convoluted when you already have some packages installed, though, and managing the different PATHs and versions of things is fairly annoying. It is much better to have anaconda perform a fresh install of Python and to have it manage all your Python needs, much less confusing.
