An easy-to-use automation solution with satisfying customer support

With Alteryx, we mostly fetch data from SQL, SQL server databases, and SharePoint. Some team members were doing the task using Excel for a long time with Macros and Excel functions like VLOOKUP, and these things become quite easy when you are using Alteryx as a solution. We have automated the…

Supports API integrations and enables users to handle data management

Informatica is a well-established product known for its stability. Hardware and configuration can affect its performance, and it's not a lightweight tool that will fail quickly. When purchasing Informatica, you have options based on your needs. A simple data ingestion or integration license is relatively affordable, but the full Data Fabric suite is expensive. The Data Fabric suite includes integration, data quality, API management, big data processing, and real-time capabilities. For those who don't need the entire suite, purchasing individual components, such as data integration or data quality, it is a more cost-effective option. These individual licenses are generally less expensive than the complete Data Fabric suite, offering a more flexible and budget-friendly choice than Informatica's flagship.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Alteryx Designer's user interface is great, as it is very user-friendly."

"Workflow automation, in general, is valuable."

"The solution's ability to hold a huge amount of data in its memory is significant."

"One of the things I like about Alteryx Designer is how easy it is to connect numerous data inputs, including API connectors. This helps tremendously in reducing the time required to extract data from systems like SAP that don't have straightforward connectivity options."

"The product offers very good analytics."

"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."

"Alteryx Designer's best features are that it's easy to use and performs well."

"I like Alteryx Designer's drag-and-drop feature, where you drag a component, configure it and quickly run it."

More Alteryx Designer pros

"The initial setup is very easy."

"The Talend data integration has been one of the most valuable features."

"It is a smart tool for us to design data pipelines. It lets us populate our three data lake instances. We like this solution for its connection capabilities, since it is very important to be able to use many different types of software. We tested a lot of SAP sources successfully, including cloud sources with SAP. It is also very easy to anonymize data with TIBCO, as well as populating HDFS files, packet files, and raw files. It is very easy to do that with Talend Data Fabric."

"We've had no issues with the stability so far."

"Talend can be used for multi-cloud purposes, allowing users to orchestrate data across various cloud platforms without purchasing AWS Glue, Azure Data Factory, or similar cloud-specific tools."

Cons

"When it comes to the pivoting part, the drill-through option is not there in Alteryx."

"It would be simpler if they provided a component where you could simply enter some parameters and see the results."

"The only thing is sometimes it can be a bit slow."

"It is challenging to view the data using Alteryx Designer."

"We discontinued using Alteryx's data science studio because it was not very user-friendly."

"If the price were reduced then it would be more competitive."

"Alteryx could move faster to create a cloud equivalent of the desktop version of Designer."

"Alteryx needs to improve its web governance. The gallery you use to filter the data is something else that could use some work. For instance, if you have a report connected to a database and want to filter a specific user, you should be able to suggest a specific region or a particular year. I know that the Alteryx isn't designed for data governance, but that would be great to think about."

More Alteryx Designer cons

"We are currently using version 7.3.1, but preferred the version before. The problem that we currently have is that Talend are releasing patches for Talend Studio every quarter. Our technical team has to be on top of these patches and constantly ensure everything is updated."

"Deployment can be difficult, but I didn't test the latest version yet. With Talend products, every release brings a lot of new features and functionalities. This is never a small adaptation, because the tool is maturing, but we need to test the latest version and to check its deployment capabilities."

"I would like to see better integration with other tools."

"We encounter issues getting email notifications. They should provide enough information about the configuration process for email components."

"Talend's architecture is complex to configure, especially due to the various components involved. It requires a more intricate setup."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive. It has license fees, which are renewable every year."

"I rate the product's pricing a two to three out of ten."

"The tool is priced high."

"The product is a bit expensive, it should be looked into."

"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."

"I rate Alteryx Designer a six out of ten for pricing."

"Alteryx Designer is a very expensive solution."

"Alteryx Designer is an expensive solution."

More Alteryx Designer pricing and cost advice

"There are no additional licensing fees when you scale"

"There are multiple subscriptions available with Talend, each with its own scope. Subscriptions depend on the number of users you have and how many remote engines you want to install."
