Hi there, I think we are both based out of Krakow? Anyway, how does Enso fit in the Cloud ecosystem? Basically all data analytics is moving over to Cloud the way I see it with CI/CD and version control practices becoming more the norm. I know many people in Enterprise are still doing local dev in Excel, Alteryx, PowerBI, but that process is hard to productionalize in my experience.

Hi! Good to see a fellow Krakow citizen! :)

Enso is cloud ready! It has two parts – web-based UI + server-side compiler / data crunching engine. The version you are able to download from our website just contains both parts glued in a single application. We will be releasing Enso Cloud (hosted version) soon! However, it is very important for us to have the desktop version as well, so everyone can just use it for free :)

I hope it makes sense to you? :)

Yes it does, thanks! Of course I have a lot more questions now but I will contact you guys. I like the way you are approaching data and I think you have a fresh look compared to more classic tools like Alteryx. I hope your pricing will make sense as these tools now compete with PowerBI which does have some light ETL capability (pbi gives people more than enough rope to hang themselves in fact).

I would love to chat about the cases you have in your mind! We really want Enso to redefine the data analysis environment and thus, we also want it to be accessible to the wide audience of customers. That's why we have the free Open Source version and we are trying to have a very flexible pricing that suits wide range of companies. I'd love to talk more about it too! If that works for you, please ping me via our chat (https://discord.gg/enso) or via email (wojciech.danilo@enso.org)! :)
