We performed a comparison between Anaconda and Teradata Data Lab based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Databricks, Microsoft, Alteryx and others in Data Science Platforms."The notebook feature is an improvement over RStudio."
"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."
"I can use Anaconda for non-heavy tasks."
"The solution is stable."
"It helped us find find the optimal area for where our warehouse should be located."
"The documentation is excellent and the solution has a very large and active community that supports it."
"The most valuable feature is the set of libraries that are used to support the functionality that we require."
"It's interesting. It's user friendly. That's what makes it outstanding among the others. It has a collection of R, Python, and others. Their platform strategy has a collection of many other visualization tools, apart from Spyder and RStudio, which is really helpful for data science. For any data science professional, Anaconda is really handy. It has almost all the tools for data science."
"In Data Lab, you can schedule any testing you want to do in production. You can take a small subset of data from production, copy it there, and run all your tests. It reduces your testing costs because it's all in the lab."
"It has increased the speed of reporting."
"Anaconda can't handle heavy workloads."
"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."
"Anaconda could benefit from improvement in its user interface to make it more attractive and user-friendly. Currently, it's boring."
"I think that the framework can be improved to make it easier for people to discover and use things on their own."
"The ability to schedule scripts for the building and monitoring of jobs would be an advantage for this platform."
"Anaconda should be optimized for RAM consumption."
"I think better documentation or a step-by-step guide for installation would help, especially for on-premise users."
"One feature that I would like to see is being able to use a different language in a different cell, which would allow me to mix R and Python together."
"Their level of technical support is adequate. It could be better."
"If I want to implement an upgrade, I'd like to see how it will be different. Ideally, Data Lab should help me test production items and also do future things. Future releases should be downloadable and testable in Data Lab."
"The initial setup was complex as we had to rewrite a lot of the code."
