Senior Systems Analyst at Optum
Useful for ETL process but improvement is needed in the performance of large datasets
Alteryx Designer helps us scale simple projects effectively. The analyst can develop their own ETL processes without much technical skill, reducing the need for developer involvement. The user interface is intuitive and easy to follow, but it struggles with complex datasets and large data. Overall, I'd rate Alteryx Designer as six out of ten.
Varun Khandavalli - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Specialist Engineering Dev. & Integration at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees
Efficient data integration and good automation with challenging configurability
The application has a difficult-to-use parsing capability, which requires a lot of reengineering when the use case isn't specifically met. The application also lacks capabilities within its terminal commands that are not available in their GUI. It requires a lot of configurability, which could be streamlined for an enterprise application user.

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."
"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."
"It has great UI."
"Alteryx Designer is a tool that is pretty much easy to install."
"Alteryx Designer's user interface is great, as it is very user-friendly."
"I believe in the ability to connect to multiple data sources, as well as the ease of use to transform data and output data in a variety of formats."
"I mainly use Alteryx Designer for automation purposes."
"The solution is easy to integrate and user-friendly."
"The crawler agents they provide, as well as TetraScience exclusive parsers, allow for specific instruments that we use in our labs with proprietary formats to extract data and put it into more standard formats for various purposes."
"The ingestion engines were pretty good."
 

Cons

"Alteryx Designer's pricing and support could be improved."
"Improving the key-based sign-on process and making it more user-friendly would be a benefit."

"If the price were reduced then it would be more competitive."
"The major concern in Alteryx Designer stems from the high costs attached to the product."
"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."
"When configuring the Logix, the UA could be improved."
"The application has a difficult-to-use parsing capability, which requires a lot of reengineering when the use case isn't specifically met."
"While functional during ingestion workflows, the automation toolkit required manual processes."
