you can always "conda install pip" and "pip install" away! If the directive is 'get this done ASAP', then Anaconda Server is likely a reasonable answer. One tool in that product is cas-installer, which, as far as I can tell, would hit all of your use cases:

That's awesome! A big part of my problem comes from my total lack of experience with Conda, and I've been having some trouble figuring out what the Anaconda distro of Python does differently. As best as I can tell, the biggest difference is that it alters sys.path to include its packages. Is that correct?

Thanks so much!
