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 drag and drop and layout is simple to understand, with intuitive names of features."
"The scheduling within the solution is excellent."
"Alteryx significantly reduces the time spent searching for specific information."
"The drag and drop and layout is simple to understand, with intuitive names of features."
"The philosophy of the citizen data scientist is the key piece, which means the no-code analytics capability. This is the feature that attracted us the most."
"The cloud deployment ensures it scales easily."
"The most valuable feature for me is integration."
"The ease-of-use allows non-technical business users to directly create their own solutions without the use of additional development resources."
"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

"There's a big jump in terms of pricing between license tiers. I'm not sure I understand why the price jumps are so high."
"The price of the solution could improve by being lower."
"The product's pricing needs improvement."
"The screen when you are looking into your workflows and your ETL processes needs to be improved. You cannot manage it very well."
"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."
"The solution could work on the BI side of the tool to make it a bit better."
"The event handling, such that the file system watcher, is in need of improvement."
"When configuring target tables, it is difficult to see the full text when deciding on load operations."
"They could focus more on marketing the product. The current marketing strategy is not working."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have a yearly cost that we pay for the licensing. We do not pay any costs in addition to the licensing fees."
"The pricing is $5000 per year per production license."
"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."
"In my opinion, it's actually quite expensive."
"Alteryx isn't extortionately expensive, but it's not cheap either."
"If one is a high price, and ten is a low price, I rate the tool's price as a one. The tool is expensive."
"The designer license costs 5000 euros. The server edition is 1000 euros."
"The desktop platform costs $5,000 per year. It's very costly."
"There is no need to buy a license. You can just download it and use it for free."
