Time-saving workflows have transformed data preparation and predictive analysis for my team
Some of the best features Alteryx offers are its no and low-code capabilities. It delivers massive time-saving and includes spatial and predictive analysis. Alteryx includes built-in tools such as drive time analysis and linear regression, which are much harder to achieve in standard BI tools such as Power BI or Tableau. In addition to these features, Alteryx provides built-in spatial tools that can calculate drive time and location-based insights with minimal effort through drag-and-drop spatial tools, low complex coding, faster, and more accurate results. Linear regression predicts sales based on marketing spend, estimates costs based on usage, and identifies trends in historical data. Alteryx has positively impacted my organization by saving time, improving accuracy, and enabling better decision-making. Using Alteryx, complex tasks such as data cleansing, joining datasets, drive time analysis, and linear regression can be done much faster compared to manual Excel or SQL work. This reduces dependency on manual effort and lowers the risk of human error. Drive time analysis helps my organization make better location-based decisions, such as identifying optimal service areas or improving customer reach.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is a stable and scalable solution."
"The value add of Alteryx is the agility for making changes, and speed of deployment."
"Alteryx is a simple and easy-to-use solution."
"Alteryx's connectivity is essential. We like the ability to connect the solution to multiple sources. It's easier than other data modeling and extraction solutions. It's built on a self-service concept, so it's easy for anyone to open the tool and directly import or export data from it."
"Alteryx speeds up the time to obtain business answers/insights on data."
"The three data signs and data engineering are great features."
"I have been pretty satisfied with Alteryx's data blending feature as it is quite easy to use as a non-code platform."
"You get more support with Alteryx, and it's good for non-sophisticated users who can benefit from the support included in the price."
"FICO OM is very flexible in terms of development, with rapid application development options."
 

Cons

"We can't browse multiple files. When we deploy a solution on a gallery, let's say I have ten different files, and I have to upload them all at once. This is something that's difficult in the gallery. So case by case, I see some downsides, but often we do something alternative."
"I'd like to see more artificial intelligence business tools or features in Alteryx."
"The interface could be improved."
"It would be nice if they can provide Alteryx with more options for In-DB connectivity. That functionality is there, but it doesn't include all software we are connecting."
"Its most valuable feature lies in its functionality."
"In the database, it should be more functional and connect to more big data, especially using IPI."
"It should have Linux support. It currently supports only Windows. It does not support any other platform. Its price should also be lower. Their US partner management program is actually unresponsive. One of the reasons why we don't have a formalized partnership plan with them is because their partner management team is atrociously unresponsive. This is something that they need to change."
"I'd like it to be easier to work with PDF."
"Customer service is below average."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It has a good price."
"The price for Alteryx Designer is reasonable but the price for Alteryx Server for universal collaborations is too expensive."
"The seat is too expensive."
"Alteryx isn't extortionately expensive, but it's not cheap either."
"It is an expensive solution."
"The license is really expensive, we cannot afford to have two or three. It takes away all the budget of my area."
"The designer license costs 5000 euros. The server edition is 1000 euros."
"It's very expensive. I'd rate it a four out of ten in terms of the price. It's great for big companies but not for small companies."
