Data discovery has transformed analyst autonomy and now needs better bulk editing and UI control
The first improvement I would like for data.world Enterprise is an improvement in communication with users. Most times, new versions roll out without prior information to users, and even though frequent updates respond to issues, they often introduce new bugs. It would be beneficial to send out notifications to users whenever an update is coming, either via email or in-app, so that they can prepare and expect changes. I also find that some areas of the product interface are overly complex, and interface customization needs improvement for users to choose where buttons should be and the layout they prefer. Another improvement needed is the absence of a bulk edit feature in the platform itself. For example, when searching for data and needing to do some edits, you cannot do bulk edits within data.world Enterprise. Instead, you have to export and make your changes in a Python or SQL environment, or use Excel to validate and edit before importing the dataset back for analysis. If data.world Enterprise could incorporate a data-wrangling tool on its service, allowing changes to be made directly, that would be a great improvement.
