Automated complex ETL workflows have reduced coding effort and improved data integration
One area for improvement is in integrating mostly the data which comes from telemetry, where I can see some sort of improvisations can be made. It is a massive amount of unstructured data, and I believe Alteryx is able to handle it, but there can be some improvements. Suggestions for improvements in Alteryx include areas for increasing efficiency, particularly in processing telemetry data, which involves dealing with large volumes of unstructured data. Additionally, I believe when we use filter tools immediately after the input source, there can be slowdowns when handling massive data. The user experience of Alteryx is generally good, but there are areas for improvement from a user's perspective, particularly regarding user interface enhancements. I think there's always room for improvement, but otherwise, Alteryx has been a great tool for me. We haven't experienced significant disruptions while increasing data volumes, though I sense there could be performance issues as data grows exponentially. This is an area that could use improvement in Alteryx.

Have seen support quality decline while still relying on long-standing data transformation features
I would assess the tool's error handling and logging features as part of it involves having a sampling thing. Depending on the definition of who's doing this, I used to work at a university where we looked at students who registered, and there were people who could register without specifying their gender. Most people know their gender. Some people would not put their birth date, so their date of birth was the default century. In 1989, we had hundreds of 89-year-olds because it was noted as 1900. What we would do is quickly assess that this is not reasonable; in a college setting, how many 89-year-olds are standing in line for freshman orientation? We could produce transformations on the fly. You can look at stuff, but ultimately, you need to go back to the data. There's logic involved; do you have to have a six-digit zip? Do you need the six plus four? It all depends on your criteria. It's doable, but it takes time, and if there's a lot of that, they usually hire people just to handle it. It's a tool that has its limitations; they haven't added wonderful features, and it's a GUI tool based on a desktop that you can run. Their manuals are pretty good, but we're not really using it actively, so I can't tell you everything right now.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Alteryx Designer is easier to use for machine learning models. However, I am not very good at Python scripts which you will need to make the machine learning scripts."
"The support is very good."
"The product's most valuable features include its ease of use for non-technical users and machine learning capabilities."
"Alteryx has cut down on time spent cleaning and transforming the data, improved productivity, and transitioning from PoC to other users was seamless because the users upskilled quickly and could take ownership without a steep learning curve."
"Overall, the solution as a whole is extremely useful."
"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."
"Workflow automation, in general, is valuable."
"Overall, if you are looking for data management, if you need to improve your ability to blend data and to get insights out of data, Alteryx is the way to go."
"IBI has led the way for many years because they can read and write any data set."
 

Cons

"Alteryx is not very robust when it comes to working on large sets of data."
"In my opinion, Alteryx does have a zone to do predictive analytics, but it is very limited, so they could focus more on that."
"Lacks an open source edition which would be helpful."
"I think better visualization would be helpful to this solution."
"In some ways, I believe it is not yet as integrated as it could be."
"It's a technical product and those that don't have proper training will have to deal with a steep learning curve."
"I think the only area where the product lags is documentation and videos on the analytical app and the batch macro."
"If the price were reduced then it would be more competitive."
"Their products work wonderfully during demos, but when we install them, they don't, and I end up following their manual only to find they forgot to mention something important."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the tool's pricing a two out of ten."
"The seat is too expensive."
"It is too expensive for our country. We are a small country, so it is too difficult to sell this solution. With Alteryx Designer, if you want to automate the data and run the flows, you have to pay more money. We were trying to automate the flows, and we found out that people have to pay 600 more for this feature, which makes it even more expensive. We are a partner for Tableau, and we are working with Tableau Prep, which is like a mini Alteryx. In Tableau Prep, you can drag and drop and make new connections with the different data sources. You can make all the connections. You can also publish a source. You don't have to pay more money with Tableau. You pay like $5 per user per month to access it."
"The tool is priced high."
"The desktop platform costs $5,000 per year. It's very costly."
"Alteryx Designer is a very expensive solution."
"Its price should be lower. The key thing that we see is that talking about ROI is an important element at the time of purchase. Cost becomes a factor in every discussion. Justifying the ROI for these kinds of workflows is always a challenge, and the only way to counter the challenge is by addressing the pricing."
"There are some implementation services and internal effort costs at the beginning but there is nothing else."
