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.

Good performance, reporting, and data visualization
The two similar solutions that I have used are MicroStrategy and Tableau. Tableau is pretty similar and it would be difficult for me to point out the differences. With MicroStrategy, it has a great feature where you build the representation in the database and it then the tool creates SQL queries by itself. There are more differences between these tools but this is the one essential difference.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The functionality of drag and drop is the most valuable. It is a very user-friendly tool that can be understood easily. My teams also work with other solutions, such as Integration Services, and these solutions are very difficult for people who don't have technical knowledge."
"It helps clean messy data and provides spatial analysis."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is data preparation."
"The amount of manual labor that we're saving by writing those workflows is huge."
"The most valuable feature of Alteryx is its stand-alone version that we do not have to download dependencies for loads. Additionally, the scan is useful for beginners."
"It is efficient in optimizing our ability to get information."
"Alteryx is very good; you can do literally anything on Alteryx, it is so advanced, and it's just drag and drop, so you don't need to know any coding or other technical stuff to use it."
"The tools are built-in; you just plug and play, drag and drop, and once you understand how to use the tools, it is easy."
"The idea that you don't have to generate reports each day but they are sent automatically is great."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of setting up visualizations."
"We like the way we can drill down into each report to get back data on each project. From the portfolio level, I can see what is happening on it. That is a really important feature. I can look at indirect costs, for example, which are hitting each CIO portfolio. It's good to be able to see actual resources in terms of time as well as cost."
"In general, I would say that this is a good tool and I recommend it."
"In this sector of the market, it is indeed a better tool than the other data analytics tool, such as QlikView, for example."
"The most valuable feature is the performance."
 

Cons

"It is expensive to buy additional licensing, and it is time and resource consuming to install onto our own hardware — which itself requires maintenance and administrative attention."
"They should work on its pricing."
"The price for Alteryx Designer is reasonable but the price of the Alteryx Server for universal collaborations is too expensive."
"We are hoping that the NLP features will also support Chinese characters."
"It would be simpler if they provided a component where you could simply enter some parameters and see the results."
"It’s quite pricey for an Alteryx Designer license (~$5200 for a one-year subscription), but once you use the product, you won’t want to go back to whatever you were using before."
"Alteryx is just as complicated as coding, in my opinion."
"Configuration is very low."
"I would like the visualization for the map of countries to be more easily configurable."
"Additional templates would help to get things moving more quickly in terms of getting the reports out."
"In terms of performance, I can see there are some issues when you are working with big data. When we are taking it from the Data Lake, we have a lot of issues."
"At this point, there are other tools that I would recommend before using Spotfire."
"Whenever the client or someone was opening the report it would take around 15 to 20 minutes to open the first time."
"The scripting for customization could be improved."
"The initial setup was quite complex."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"While it offers extensive features, including predictive analytics, for those who mainly use it for data preparation and blending, the cost can be prohibitive."
"It is $4,000 a year, so it is cheap versus other solutions. It also accomplishes three times the volume on the job in the same time (as the other solutions).​"
"The license price of the solution is expensive."
"Alteryx Designer is a very expensive solution."
"My organization pays for it, and I do not look into the financial aspect of the licensing, but I know it is pretty expensive."
"​Very transparent.​"
"Alteryx Designer is an expensive solution."
