Isolate environments and switch package versions efficiently for smoother testing workflows
Overall, it works well, but there are a few things that could be better. Sometimes the environment creation or package installation feels a bit slow, especially with bigger libraries. Another thing I would appreciate is a cleaner, more intuitive interface for managing environments. It works, but a smoother UI could make the workflow faster. It would also be nice to have clearer error messages when something fails, so it is easier to understand what went wrong without digging too much. The documentation could be a bit clearer, especially for troubleshooting specific errors or setup issues. Sometimes I need to search extensively to find the exact steps. Also, having quicker or more detailed support responses would help when something unexpected comes up. These are not major problems, but improving them would definitely make the overall experience smoother. One small improvement I would add is smoother integration with IDEs. It works fine right now, but having even tighter or more automated syncing with tools such as VS Code or PyCharm would make the workflow faster. Perhaps also a few more built-in examples or quick-start guides for common setups would be helpful. Nothing major, just things that would make the experience even more user-friendly.

Easy to implement, good data forecasting and reporting
This solution works for acquired data but not live, real-time data. If we connect it to a live backend system then we cannot perform predictive analytics on top of that. We have to first upload data to the cloud, manage the staging environment, and then perform the analysis. In the next release of this solution, I would like to see more automation in generating the models. The system can suggest the dimensions and measures that should be used, and pre-populate some of the information based on that. Power users would not have as much need for this, but this type of automation would be very helpful for business end-users.
