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.

A stable product that is easy to deploy and can be used for structured and unstructured data mining
We use the solution for predictive analytics to do structured and unstructured data mining I like the way the product visually shows the data pipeline. The product must provide better integration with cloud-native technologies. I have been using the solution for 20 years. The product is very…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Alteryx is so advanced. It's just drag and drop."
"It's super easy to learn how to use it — the learning curve is very small."
"Alteryx significantly reduces the time spent searching for specific information."
"We automate analytics tasks saving thousand of ours from our clients, starting with a scenario of a lot of manual work and then automating it, offering very good analytics with much more power through geospacial analytics and data science."
"Alteryx Designer has so many functionalities packed into one package that you get a lot of things that you wouldn't have expected."
"The most valuable feature of Alteryx is user-friendliness."
"Fast data processing and cleaning."
"Overall, I'd have to say the tool is pretty awesome."
"Most of the features, especially on the data analysis tool pack, are really good. The way they do clustering and output is great. You can do fairly elaborate outputs. The results, the ensembles, all of these, are fantastic."
"The data processing of the solution is very good, easy to use, both for enterprise and personal use."
"Good data management and analytics."
"The solution is very good for data mining or any mining issues."
"Technical support has been good, and when I called them at the start of using the product with some issues they were very helpful."
"The solution is able to handle quite large amounts of data beautifully."
"The most valuable feature is the decision tree creation."
"he solution is scalable."
 

Cons

"The license is really expensive, we cannot afford to have two or three."
"The pricing seems high for my current needs. However, considering the benefits, it is easier to justify to management for broader company usage."
"There were times when the product would fail during development without an apparent reason."
"Its price can be improved. It is too expensive for our country. Because of its high price, we can't sell Alteryx Designer in this region. We used to be their reseller partner. There is also an additional cost for automating the data and running the flows, which makes it even more expensive. It will be very good if they can let users automate the data for free. Other solutions like Tableau provide this feature for free."
"The solution could improve in the visualization."
"It's a technical product and those that don't have proper training will have to deal with a steep learning curve."
"The gallery could improve in Alteryx. Additionally, if there was a Conditional Join feature it would be beneficial. Since I do not have this feature I have to use Python scripts."
"I'd like to see more artificial intelligence business tools or features in Alteryx."
"The stability isn't perfect. We have issues with accuracy in some AI forecasting areas, and the accuracy is not as good as the clients need it to be."
"Virtualization could be much better."
"The solution needs an easier interface for the user. The user experience isn't so easy for our clients."
"The product must provide better integration with cloud-native technologies."
"The ease of use can be improved. When you are new it seems a bit complex."
"Price of the product"
"The license is really expensive. This solution is for large corporations because not everybody can afford it."
"While I don't personally need tutorials, I can't say that it wouldn't be helpful for others to have some to help them navigate and operate the system."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive. It has license fees, which are renewable every year."
"There is a license required for this solution."
"I rate the product's pricing a two to three out of ten."
"Alteryx is generally more suited for medium—to large companies due to its potentially high licensing costs."
"It has a good price."
"ROI is huge. There are some secondary benefits, like analysts getting their post 5 PM time back or the ability to shorten all closing processes to a half or less."
"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."
"We have a yearly cost that we pay for the licensing. We do not pay any costs in addition to the licensing fees."
"The solution is expensive for an individual, but for an enterprise/institution (purchasing bulk licenses), it is not a high price for the use that will come from it."
"This solution is for large corporations because not everybody can afford it."
"The solution must improve its licensing models."
