One of the biggest uses of Monkey Analytics is as a source of high RAM (64bit / 8GB+) computing machines - these are hard to come by for many of you.
Every professional we have spoken with is excited by this product. You people "get it" immediately. Almost as if you'd been waiting for something like this!
Monkey Analytics fits the professional consultant well with its billing friendly model and inexpensive / scalable approach.
Some of you have realized that a Monkey Analytics account can be shared with students, enabling you to work together on math / science problem sets remotely.
Some professional tutor / teaching organisations are evaluating Monkey Analytics as an institutionalized method for teaching math computation (Octave) and basic programming (Python).
You don't like spending $100 for a student version of Matlab that they may never use again. You'd much rather use our basic plan ($15 / semester) for your classes.
Besides, you use Gmail or Yahoo Mail, and are annoyed when you have to use thick client software. And no more worries about whether your homework is backed up!
One user story we'll share: someone was struggling with a slow desktop machine while analysing a wav file with Octave. A short Google later brought them to the Wikipedia page on Octave which describes Monkey Analytics. 60 seconds later they were computing happily away at Monkey Analytics!
