Head of Data Analytics COE at bank islam
Able to hold a huge amount of data in its memory, but it is very expensive
We had challenges with a very complex workflow, and we couldn't find the root cause because it caused an error in the output. We recreated the workflow, and it solved the problem. Alteryx Designer integrated seamlessly with other tools and systems in our workflow. It's not convenient for us to develop any machine learning model using Alteryx Designer. Other data science studio tools are much more advanced than the data science studio tools in Alteryx. We do maintenance on our workflow, but we try to be careful with the upgrades because we don't want any upgrades to impact our production workflows. One or two people are needed to maintain the solution. Overall, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.

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

"It has an easy setup process."
"Alteryx Designer's best features are that it's easy to use and performs well."
"It helps them to create customized workflows, transform data, perform calculations, and consolidate multiple data sources into a target database."
"I like Alteryx's browser tool because you can view how your data is handled live. There are many other valuable tools like transpose and the crosstab. You can quickly pivot your data, and there are connections throughout the database. It's so easy to create a connection. If you connect to sign apps or a more complex database, the tool contains all the tools you need."
"We use Alteryx Designer for analytics. It's quite helpful because once we set it up, we don't have to manually update or process data repeatedly. It saves time, especially for financial reporting, which is typically done monthly or quarterly. Once we set it up initially, we only need to make occasional updates if necessary."
"For my daily analytics needs, the entire Alteryx Designer platform is beneficial."
"It has great UI."
"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."
"This solution is seamless. From one platform, we can do just about anything."
 

Cons

"For smaller clients with ten to 15 employees, Alteryx can be expensive. The server capabilities are costly too. The technical support could also improve by being quicker in response times."
"Alteryx Designer's pricing and support could be improved."
"The conditional join feature should be improved."
"The product could offer more connectors and more databases with support for the in-database function."
"It would be simpler if they provided a component where you could simply enter some parameters and see the results."
"The major concern in Alteryx Designer stems from the high costs attached to the product."
"Alteryx Designer's cost should be improved."
"We discontinued using Alteryx's data science studio because it was not very user-friendly."
"I think there should be less coding involved. Currently, using it involves a tremendous amount of coding."
