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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The support is very good overall; we are satisfied with their level of service, and they are knowledgeable and responsive."
"The product is very stable and super fast, five-star. It's significantly more stable than it's nearest competitor."
"I like the fact that you can easily blend data from different platforms."
"The solution does a good job with data transformation."
"Alteryx is so advanced. It's just drag and drop."
"I think the most valuable feature is the ease of use for my business scientists."
"It is efficient in optimizing our ability to get information."
"Automation is the most valuable aspect for us. The ability to wrap business logic around the data is very helpful."
"FICO OM is very flexible in terms of development, with rapid application development options."
 

Cons

"There is currently no cloud solution and this would be valuable for many clients."
"Technical support is okay and could be better. Sometimes, it takes about two to five days to hear an answer from the technical support team."
"Alteryx could be improved in the area of analytics and central governance."
"What they're struggling with is it's not as mature as Tableau in the user management area. It was tougher to manage the server part of it right away, especially since the user base has grown."
"The solution could work on the BI side of the tool to make it a bit better."
"The price is quite high, which is why there is a limitation on licenses, and not everyone has the right to use it, so if they could decrease the price, more people could use it easily."
"This is a proprietary tool and maybe the open source part of it could be improved."
"Its most valuable feature lies in its functionality."
"Customer service is below average."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"A designer and scheduler for $13K/year in total is pretty much earning you the money back in time and in other resources."
"We have a yearly cost that we pay for the licensing. We do not pay any costs in addition to the licensing fees."
"While it offers extensive features, including predictive analytics, for those who mainly use it for data preparation and blending, the cost can be prohibitive."
"The pricing is $5000 per year per production license."
"Opt for the three year subscription. It is 20% less than the yearly one."
"The seat is too expensive."
"My organization pays for it, and I do not look into the financial aspect of the licensing, but I know it is pretty expensive."
"It's probably on the pricey side, but they provide some really useful ways to grow and test."
