What is Anaconda?
The Python distribution for building and deploying models.
Who is Anaconda best for?
Anaconda is best for data scientists and students who want Python, Jupyter and vetted packages in one installer.
Learning Python for data science
One installer brings Python, Jupyter Notebook, JupyterLab and thousands of vetted packages, so there is no library-by-library setup.
Projects that must not break each other
conda installs packages, resolves dependencies and keeps each project in its own environment.
Teams sharing environments
Starter moves prototypes into shared, reproducible team environments with 10GB of storage per user.
Companies with security rules
Business adds vulnerability scanning, audit trails and SSO, and it is the plan larger organisations are required to buy.
How much does Anaconda cost?
Anaconda Distribution and the Anaconda Core Free plan cost nothing, team plans cost $15 per user per month (Starter) or $50 per user per month (Business), and organisations with 200 or more staff must buy Business.
