Automated complex ETL workflows have reduced coding effort and improved data integration
One area for improvement is in integrating mostly the data which comes from telemetry, where I can see some sort of improvisations can be made. It is a massive amount of unstructured data, and I believe Alteryx is able to handle it, but there can be some improvements. Suggestions for improvements in Alteryx include areas for increasing efficiency, particularly in processing telemetry data, which involves dealing with large volumes of unstructured data. Additionally, I believe when we use filter tools immediately after the input source, there can be slowdowns when handling massive data. The user experience of Alteryx is generally good, but there are areas for improvement from a user's perspective, particularly regarding user interface enhancements. I think there's always room for improvement, but otherwise, Alteryx has been a great tool for me. We haven't experienced significant disruptions while increasing data volumes, though I sense there could be performance issues as data grows exponentially. This is an area that could use improvement in Alteryx.

Good performance, reporting, and data visualization
The two similar solutions that I have used are MicroStrategy and Tableau. Tableau is pretty similar and it would be difficult for me to point out the differences. With MicroStrategy, it has a great feature where you build the representation in the database and it then the tool creates SQL queries by itself. There are more differences between these tools but this is the one essential difference.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product offers very good analytics."
"It's super easy to learn how to use it — the learning curve is very small."
"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."
"The solution's ability to hold a huge amount of data in its memory is significant."
"I think the most valuable feature for Alteryx in a health facility is that it permits cleaning, organizing, and merging of databases such as Excel and Access."
"We are taking the data from disparate systems and transforming and making the data available for further visualization."
"The GUI is simple and it integrates with Python."
"I mainly use Alteryx Designer for automation purposes."
"In general, I would say that this is a good tool and I recommend it."
"In this sector of the market, it is indeed a better tool than the other data analytics tool, such as QlikView, for example."
"The idea that you don't have to generate reports each day but they are sent automatically is great."
"The most valuable feature is the performance."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of setting up visualizations."
"We like the way we can drill down into each report to get back data on each project. From the portfolio level, I can see what is happening on it. That is a really important feature. I can look at indirect costs, for example, which are hitting each CIO portfolio. It's good to be able to see actual resources in terms of time as well as cost."
 

Cons

"Sometimes workflows tend to queue up, and they tend to get canceled for some reason that we don't know sometimes."
"It's more expensive than Tableau, for example."
"For smaller clients with ten to 15 employees, Alteryx can be expensive."
"It's a technical product and those that don't have proper training will have to deal with a steep learning curve."
"It’s quite pricey for an Alteryx Designer license (~$5200 for a one-year subscription), but once you use the product, you won’t want to go back to whatever you were using before."
"Alteryx Designer overall should be easier to use."
"The formula we currently use in Alteryx can be automated."
"When it comes to the pivoting part, the drill-through option is not there in Alteryx."
"I would like the visualization for the map of countries to be more easily configurable."
"At this point, there are other tools that I would recommend before using Spotfire."
"Additional templates would help to get things moving more quickly in terms of getting the reports out."
"The initial setup was quite complex."
"Whenever the client or someone was opening the report it would take around 15 to 20 minutes to open the first time."
"In terms of performance, I can see there are some issues when you are working with big data. When we are taking it from the Data Lake, we have a lot of issues."
"The scripting for customization could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The designer license costs 5000 euros. The server edition is 1000 euros."
"The license is really expensive, we cannot afford to have two or three. It takes away all the budget of my area."
"I rate the tool's pricing a two out of ten."
"I rate the solution's pricing as a ten, as it is highly priced."
"I rate Alteryx Designer a six out of ten for pricing."
"It is an expensive solution."
"The seat is too expensive."
"The tool is priced high."
