Theresa McLaughlin - PeerSpot reviewer
Quick development enables seamless data processing despite occasional support issues
There were times when the product would fail during development without an apparent reason. The support structure changed; initially, we received great support, however, it later became less reliable due to licensing issues and a tiered support system. Licensing negotiations were problematic, affecting our product usage. For instance, our licenses were temporarily lost during negotiations when an agreement couldn't be reached.

Is easy to deploy and is free, but marketing strategies need improvement
We use Ataccama DQ Analyzer to analyze data migration from one source to another. We use it to clean up the data I like that there is no need to buy a license. You can just download it and use it free. It is also easy to deploy. They could focus more on marketing the product. The current…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution has excellent drag and drop functionality. There's no need for coding."
"It has everything that one needs. Whatever you want to do with the data can be done with Alteryx."
"The drag-and-drop functionality, the ready-to-use analytics module, and the ability to track my data pipelines visually are the solution's most valuable features."
"Alteryx makes it easy for the end customer to see clean data in a structured form."
"Data processing is most valuable. It is one of the fastest data blockers out there in the market, which is a fascinating thing about Alteryx."
"Alteryx is a simple and easy-to-use solution."
"It allows for manipulation and automation, which has greatly reduced the amount of time required per project."
"Good data transformation."
"It is also easy to deploy."
"The data profile itself is excellent. You can understand the quality of the data in layman's terms."
 

Cons

"The tool could include more native connectors, such as for global ERPs, instead of requiring additional fees for these connections."
"The event handling, such that the file system watcher, is in need of improvement."
"Its most valuable feature lies in its functionality."
"A colleague of mind mentioned that the solution should have more options for the visualization of data."
"I'd like to see more artificial intelligence business tools or features in Alteryx."
"The server is too expensive for what you get and it really a designer desktop on a server."
"The software is not fully optimized."
"There are no ready models to use in analytics."
"Although DQA can fetch data from most of the commonly used data sources, it has limited modifiers to get data, meaning that the number of technologies from which the data can be acquired is limited. For example, DQA does not support fetching data from Twitter or Facebook. Many competitors have this feature."
"They could focus more on marketing the product. The current marketing strategy is not working."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the tool's pricing a two out of ten."
"A designer and scheduler for $13K/year in total is pretty much earning you the money back in time and in other resources."
"The cost of the solution could be reduced."
"The seat is too expensive."
"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."
"The designer has a list price of $5,995 USD."
"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).​"
"It has a good price."
"There is no need to buy a license. You can just download it and use it for free."
