We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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.""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.""The most advantageous feature is the logic building.""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 most valuable feature is the set of libraries that are used to support the functionality that we require.""The tool's most valuable feature is its cloud-based nature, allowing accessibility from anywhere. Additionally, using Jupyter Notebook makes it easy to handle bugs and errors.""It helped us find find the optimal area for where our warehouse should be located.""Voice Configuration and Environmental Management Capabilities are the most valuable features."

"From a scalability standpoint, I would say it's pretty fantastic.""This solution allows us to integrate data from across all client departments, for effective reporting via a single dashboard.""We particularly like the data angling feature of this solution.

Cons
"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.""The solution would benefit from offering more automation.""The interface could be improved. Other solutions, like Visual Studio, have much better UI.""Anaconda should be optimized for RAM consumption.""The ability to schedule scripts for the building and monitoring of jobs would be an advantage for this platform.""It also takes up a lot of space.""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.""Anaconda could benefit from improvement in its user interface to make it more attractive and user-friendly. Currently, it's boring."

More Anaconda Cons →

"The initial setup can be difficult.""The initial setup is complicated and needs experience and knowledge.""The initial setup of TIBCO Spotfire is in the middle range of difficulty. The initial setup of Power BI is easier.""One aspect where Spotfire could improve is its global recognition, especially in terms of support.""The number of charts available out of the box in Spotfire can be enhanced.""The handling and consumption of realtime data could be improved.""The Text Area feature needs to be more user-friendly. It is a little clunky to use, and it is difficult to consistently format text.""When you do the data loading, it is slow."
