Overall Satisfaction with Anaconda

We used Anaconda to develop solutions to analyze blocks of information from customer tickets in order to gather information about our monthly resource x workforce relation.
  • Open source, leading to zero sketchy things running in the background.
  • Easy to install packages.
  • Multiple environments are easy to configure and also encouraged.
  • Anaconda gets bigger and bigger with each package or dependency that you own, making it a huge pain to move environments around.
  • Different environments.
  • Open source.
  • Since Anaconda is free and open source, there were no negative impacts regarding costs.
It is almost dishonest to compare Anaconda with PyCharm as they do different things in their basic forms unless you spend a lot of time configuring plugins on your PyCharm environment. Anaconda has a lot of things ready and you just need to install your libs and dependencies.

Do you think Anaconda delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Anaconda's feature set?

Yes

Did Anaconda live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Anaconda go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Anaconda again?

Yes

Anaconda is a good choice when you have to build different environments to perform different tasks (for example, one environment with Python 3.7 + TensorFlow and the other with Julia + TensorFlow.jl or even Flux). The fact that it supports an easy switch between different environments (if you ignore the part about your installation getting bigger and bigger) is a big win situation.
