Powerful tool for cleansing, formatting, and transforming data – especially unstructured files
When you open a raw Excel file, it can be hard to look at everything in detail. Alteryx makes it much easier to go through the data, summarize it, and use different tools for analysis. So, Alteryx Designer have significantly reduced the time I spend on data analysis tasks. Moreover, the drag-and-drop interface of Alteryx Designer improved our overall workflow.

A seamless all-in-one solution
This solution is seamless. From one platform, we can do just about anything. With other solutions, you'll need a separate platform for data ingestion, manipulation, etc. Then you'll need another tool for reporting. Palantir Gotham literally does it all. It generates a report regardless of the format. It can seamlessly generate it after the data has been collected.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The tool's most valuable feature is its API connections. Its predictive analytics feature has helped us pass some ETL processes to analysts rather than developers."
"The solution is easy to integrate and user-friendly."
"Alteryx Designer offers a drag-and-drop interface, making it highly user-friendly. Unlike Python and Apache Airflow, which require coding, Alteryx allows users to accomplish tasks without any programming knowledge. Its simplicity makes it accessible to anyone, even those without coding experience, and this ease of use is one of Alteryx's key advantages."
"The product offers very good analytics."
"It has great UI."
"The main valuable aspect is the simplicity of use across all features."
"It has an easy setup process."
"The main valuable aspect is the simplicity of use across all features."
"This solution is seamless. From one platform, we can do just about anything."
 

Cons

"The price of the product is an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"I would like to be able to include small snippets of code inside of the solution. The tool has only drag-and-drop features to make it easy to use, but sometimes I feel like this makes it more complicated."
"Alteryx needs to improve its web governance. The gallery you use to filter the data is something else that could use some work. For instance, if you have a report connected to a database and want to filter a specific user, you should be able to suggest a specific region or a particular year. I know that the Alteryx isn't designed for data governance, but that would be great to think about."
"Sometimes, while getting data from a third-party product, the solution works slowly."
"Alteryx Designer is not as fast as SSIS and is not good for large datasets. It also needs to improve database procedures. Though it is easy to use, it is limited in terms of technical aspects."
"Improving the key-based sign-on process and making it more user-friendly would be a benefit."
"Alteryx Designer's cost should be improved."
"The actual usage part of it needs to be explained more. It's too vague right now."
"I think there should be less coding involved. Currently, using it involves a tremendous amount of coding."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is bit expensive."
"I rate the price of Alteryx Designer as a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is extremely expensive, and ten is a highly cheap product."
"The solution is expensive. It has license fees, which are renewable every year."
"The tool is priced high."
"The product is a bit expensive, it should be looked into."
"I rate the product's pricing a two to three out of ten."
"I rate the price of Alteryx Designer a ten on a scale of one to ten, where one is low price and ten is high price."
"Each license is something like $4,000."
