Enhancing survey analysis that provides valued insightfulness
I use it to analyze questionnaire surveys related to a product, solution, or application, such as open data services, which I provide to consumers and end-users. These surveys contain evaluation assessments, and I use SPSS to analyze the responses The most valuable feature is its robust…

Has a good UI and drag-and-drop features which makes it easy to understand
There have been some issues with licensing, particularly with the increased prices. This has led some companies, including ours, to consider reducing the number of licenses or potentially discontinuing their use of Alteryx. Since most of our team members work with Alteryx, deploying workflows to clients who may not have licenses became a hurdle. Every user needed a license to run the workflows, which could pose difficulties, especially for clients who only needed occasional access for small data analyses. Unlike other software like Microsoft Power BI, which offers free trials or user licenses for basic functionality, Alteryx doesn't provide such options, potentially limiting its accessibility for occasional users. It should improve scalability.

Good job extracting entities and does the classification in the healthcare products
I use it to extract medical entities for doctors like the deceased and so on. It does the job well for our requirements. It is mainly for automation.  I like the analytics options in CComprehend, it's a kind of data science work that we are doing, extracting the entities for the doctors. It is…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The software offers consistency across multiple research projects helping us with predictive analytics capabilities."
"SPSS can handle whatever you throw at it, whether your data set contains 10,000, 100,000, or a million objects. It's like the heavy artillery of analytical tools."
"Some of the most valuable features that we are using with some business models are machine learning algorithms, statistical models given to us by the business, and getting data from the database or text files."
"It is perfectly adequate if all you need are the results and not the trail of evidence."
"It offers very good visualization."
"The solution is very comprehensive, especially compared to Minitabs, which is considered more for manufacturing. However, whatever data you want to analyze can be handled with SPSS."
"The learning curve to using this product is not steep. The program is appropriate for those who do not have a lot of background in programming, yet have to perform basic statistical analysis."
"I've found the descriptive statistics and cross-tabs valuable. The very simple correlations and regressions are as well."
"The Alteryx designer has been the most useful feature in the solution."
"The GUI is simple and it integrates with Python."
"The ease-of-use allows non-technical business users to directly create their own solutions without the use of additional development resources."
"The analytics are easy​."
"It's super easy to learn how to use it — the learning curve is very small."
"The most valuable feature of Alteryx is the intelligence suite."
"It is one of the most complete and great customer service that I experienced with a software company/ecosystem."
"The most valuable feature of Alteryx is its performance. It is a powerful solution."
"Amazon Comprehend works with a large pool of doctors. They're building the product based on working with domain experts."
 

Cons

"It could allow adding color to data models to make them easier to interpret."
"The technical support should be improved."
"Better documentation on how to use macros."
"It would be helpful if there was better documentation on how to properly use the solution. A beginner's guide on how to use the various programming functions within the product would be so useful to a lot of people. I found that everything was very confusing at first. Having clear documentation would help alleviate that."
"Technical support needs some improvement, as they do not respond as quickly as we would like."
"It could provide even more in the way of automation as there are many opportunities."
"The design of the experience can be improved."
"This solution is not suitable for use with Big Data."
"Alteryx is just as complicated as coding, in my opinion."
"If there is any way to make the learning curve less steep, that would be ideal."
"The workflow and pipeline need to improve."
"I think they should really work on integrating or have a capacity to integrate some algorithmic code. I think that's one of the most important things they need to be doing."
"They should make the solution user-friendly for nontechnical people by giving specific names to the options."
"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."
"The product could benefit from improved integration with visualization tools or even the inclusion of built-in visualization features."
"We are hoping that the NLP features will also support Chinese characters."
"It is a bit complex to scale. It is still evolving as a product."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the tool's pricing a five out of ten."
"The pricing of the modeler is high and can reduce the utility of the product for those who can not afford to adopt it."
"The price of this solution is a little bit high, which was a problem for my company."
"More affordable training for new staff members."
"We think that IBM SPSS is expensive for this function."
"SPSS is an expensive piece of software because it's incredibly complex and has been refined over decades, but I would say it's fairly priced."
"The price of IBM SPSS Statistics could improve."
"If it requires lot of data processing, maybe switching to IBM SPSS Clementine would be better for the buyer."
"It can be a bit pricey, especially after the first year."
"The seat is too expensive."
"I rate the tool's pricing a two out of ten."
"The price could be better."
"In my opinion, it's actually quite expensive."
"I rate the solution's pricing as a ten, as it is highly priced."
"Its price should be lower. The key thing that we see is that talking about ROI is an important element at the time of purchase. Cost becomes a factor in every discussion. Justifying the ROI for these kinds of workflows is always a challenge, and the only way to counter the challenge is by addressing the pricing."
"There is a license required for this solution."
