Seamless Interface, Perfect for Beginners
What do you like best about the product?
I love that Anaconda AI Platform makes the user interface seamless and legible, especially for new users like me. It's a great platform for following what I'm being taught in data analysis courses on LinkedIn Learning. I find the visual clarity it provides invaluable as a beginner, helping me follow through and learn each step. The setup is amazing with a step-by-step guide and lots of materials available on the platform to help with any issues. I also appreciate the seamless user journey without any problems.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't know if I'm saying the right thing, but there could be the option for different language functionality. For someone like me who speaks other languages, and other people in places like Africa, I believe that with other indigenous languages available, it would help people who don't understand English because obviously the default language is English.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I find Anaconda AI Platform simple and seamless, with a user-friendly interface that provides visual clarity. It's been the best for learning data analysis, allowing me to follow lessons easily and learn each step as a beginner.
Empowering Open Source Tool for ML Beginners
What do you like best about the product?
I use the Anaconda AI Platform for learning and building myself since it's open source, which I really love. It's an easy-to-use and understand platform.

Effortless Dependency Management and Quick Setup
What do you like best about the product?
I use Anaconda AI Platform for a research project to manage packages with dependency conflicts. I find that conda, in particular, helps me isolate certain packages in their compatible Python versions, which makes it extremely easy and reproducible. I also appreciate using Anaconda environments on Lightning AI because the ease of use and compatibility with GPUs out of the box stand out to me. It saves me a lot of time, especially on cloud environments where I would have to recompile CPython every time I use a new VM. Switching from CPython to Anaconda was a great upgrade, and I found that setting up Anaconda AI Platform was seamless, much easier than compiling my own Python.
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't explored it too much so I don't think I can answer that properly, but here's something that was a pain point: Wouldn't it be better if pip packages were somehow integrated into conda?
