We performed a comparison between Anaconda and Dataiku Data Science Studio based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Databricks, Microsoft, Alteryx and others in Data Science Platforms."I can use Anaconda for non-heavy tasks."
"The documentation is excellent and the solution has a very large and active community that supports it."
"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 notebook feature is an improvement over RStudio."
"The virtual environment is very good."
"The most valuable feature is the set of libraries that are used to support the functionality that we require."
"The product is responsive, sleek and has a beautiful interface that is pleasant to use. It helps users to easily share code."
"The most valuable feature is the Jupyter notebook that allows us to write the Python code, compile it on the fly, and then look at the results."
"The most valuable feature is the set of visual data preparation tools."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it is one tool that can do everything, and you have the ability to very easily push your design to prediction."
"Extremely easy to use with its GUI-based functionality and large compatibility with various data sources. Also, maintenance processes are much more automated than ever, with fewer errors."
"I like the interface, which is probably my favorite part of the solution. It is really user-friendly for an IT person."
"Cloud-based process run helps in not keeping the systems on while processes are running."
"Data Science Studio's data science model is very useful."
"The solution is quite stable."
"Anaconda can't handle heavy workloads."
"The solution would benefit from offering more automation."
"The ability to schedule scripts for the building and monitoring of jobs would be an advantage for this platform."
"Anaconda could benefit from improvement in its user interface to make it more attractive and user-friendly. Currently, it's boring."
"When you install Anaconda for the first time, it's really difficult to update it."
"I think better documentation or a step-by-step guide for installation would help, especially for on-premise users."
"It crashes once in a while. In case of a reboot or something unexpected, the unseen code part will get diminished, and it relatively takes longer than other applications when a reboot is happening. They can improve in these areas. They can also bring some database software. They have software for analytics and virtualization. However, they don't have any software for the database."
"Having a small guide or video on the tool would help learn how to use it and what the features are."
"The ability to have charts right from the explorer would be an improvement."
"Server up-time needs to be improved. Also, query engines like Spark and Hive need to be more stable."
"In the next release of this solution, I would like to see deep learning better integrated into the tool and not simply an extension or plugin."
"There were stability issues: 1) SQL operations, such as partitioning, had bugs and showed wrong results. 2) Due to server downtime, scheduled processes used to fail. 3) Access to project folders was compromised (privacy issue) with wrong people getting access to confidential project folders."
"Although known for Big Data, the processing time to process 1.8 billion records was terribly slow (five days)."
"I find that it is a little slow during use. It takes more time than I would expect for operations to complete."
"The interface for the web app can be a bit difficult. It needs to have better capabilities, at least for developers who like to code. This is due to the fact that everything is enabled in a single window with different tabs. For them to actually develop and do the concurrent testing that needs to be done, it takes a bit of time. That is one improvement that I would like to see - from a web app developer perspective."
"I think it would help if Data Science Studio added some more features and improved the data model."
