  • The business model of Anaconda has changed slightly: now it's a free product with 'add-ons' that cost money.
  • Enthought has largely replaced EPD with Canopy.
  • I've moved Anaconda before Canopy: this is obviously subjective, but Anaconda includes a lot more for free (Canopy Express excludes many open source packages). Workshops like Software Carpentry now tend to point new users to Anaconda for installation.
