Alteryx Reviews

The best part of using Alteryx is having vast support information available online. As someone who often learns by doing, the Alteryx online community has played a significant role in my learning how to use the software best.

My one dislike is the random moments when my workflow will experience an issue caused by a bug. This happens when dealing with complex workflows and resolves automatically.

I use Alteryx to deal with creating solutions involving complex data. This can range from creating workflows to process large amounts of blockchain data to prepare individual tax returns to other process-focused solutions involving extensive data.

i managed to simplify alot of the manual sheets and processes, into repeatable workflows that allowed any user with not much knowledge to run the tool in no time at all.

i find it difficult to keep this software up to date at work, and would like it if the software could update itself much like bloomberg does already.

currently i am extracting data from a db, and then moving into another platform, which has some requirements and shaping to fit into the new style. This is done here quite well as a quick 1 button refresh will provide a brand new snapshot of data. This is then performed about 40 times, but with the tools we can make this alot simplier, and also highlighting where problems are.

As a core member of R&D at medicaps, I heavily encountered data and so as data analytics platforms such as Anaconda, tableau, alteryx, etc. But alteryx has proven to be the best asset for me for the last few months in my research work. It has all kind of features that any machine learning engineer want, providing a robust and versatile platform for data modeling and feature engineering.

The best thing it saves my time by dragging and dropping features, and statistical and predictive modeling gets easy making it very popular for the beginner. Almost all the data types are supported and collaboration becomes easy with a peer group.

Costs are relatively high except that this platform is best for beginners.

for me time-saving is important so alteryx majorly saves my time by preventing me from writing unnecessary Python scripts for data modeling and analysis. Data analysis improves overall unlike writing a Python script. Overall efficiency increased workload becomes less, productivity increased in my research work.

Alteryx is an exceptional data analytics platform that has truly revolutionized the way we handle complex data tasks. Its user-friendly interface and intuitive design make it accessible to both seasoned professionals and novices alike.

One of the standout features of Alteryx is its ability to seamlessly integrate and process data from multiple sources. This empowers users to derive meaningful insights and make informed decisions with ease. The platform's vast library of pre-built tools and templates further accelerates data processing, saving valuable time and effort.

Originally, I was put off by the cost per seat (it is hard to justify), but when you do a real ROI against that cost -- you are actually coming out ahead. People are now doing more value-added work as opposed to copying/pasting data into a dataset.

We are able to do things from bringing together over 400 templates into a master template, bring in financial data from various sources, and output into various formats all within a single workflow. The gain in analysis time is staggering. We are talking 1000's of hours back from data preparation.

Beats SPSS by a mile. Does the job well.

The challenge and fear of students. So bad.

Getting my students jobs.

Broad range of tool palette with ample of tools wihich even keeps on growing with each version update easing the process ofdeveloping the workflows for automation.

Highly active user community for addressing queries and proviidng solutions during challenging times

Step by Step view and analysis of how data is transformed at each tool, making it easier for troubleshooting

Drag and drop UI helping users with no or low coding abckgrounds getting their job done quicker

Alteryx supports wide range of input connections which helps in generating faster insights from data after preparation using alteryx

Pricing of the product is at the higher end, which restricts the adoption of the tool across some firms considering the budget allocated

Less capability in designing the user interface, which could have been better for having a good user experience while interacting with the Alteryx application

Don't have the functionality like Excel Pivot table to drill down through the data and get insights which are a significant drawback

Reporting options can be enhanced to create alluring reports like the ones from Tableau, Power BI...

I use Alteryx for data scraping and data blending from various data sources to cleanse and prepare the data to generate insights and create reports. Secondly, we use ALteryx to automate certain parts of our job, which is manual and time-consuming through Alteryx application processes.

Alteryx enables us to create a repeatable, scalable data and analytics recipe that we can share. We use Alteryx daily to combine disparate data from 3rd party APIs, in house databases (such as SQL Server, Teradata, Hive and Snowflake) and other files. Alteryx makes it easy to connect all the dots so we can build reliable data assets. Healthcare is a team sport and Alteryx also enables us to work together - no more digging through chapters of code trying to figure out what someone else did - the annotate ability for each tool makes documentation of complex business rules a breeze - so we can pick up quickly where someone else left off. Alteryx Gallery pulls it all together for us and enables us to schedule our workflows and "set and forget". The ability to configure built in error messages to alert us to when things go sideways means we can get ahead of issues before they flow downstream and cause production issues for our customers. Alteryx makes it easy for us to work with our business partners and rapidly explore data collaboratively and implement new solutions. In addition, Alteryx has an incredible supportive community - when we are stuck we can google, reach out to the Alteryx User Group, or contact our customer success manager.

Not everyone has Alteryx Designer desktop due to the expense of the license. When you save a workflow back to the Gallery there is a specific sequence to follow or you could end up with versioning issues. There's so much to love and very little to dislike. I would not want to do my job without Alteryx for myself and my team.

Ingesting disparate data, cleansing & transforming data to prep for Tableau. Automating data workflows. Alteryx significantly reduces time needed for data wrangling and also increases quality due to data visibility throughout the transformation & creating a repeatable process.

automated data preparation is the best about Alteryx and I would love to use this tool for long

N/A there is nothing that I disliked about Alteryx yet

gathering and preparing the huge amount of data is really complicated and Alteryx gave us benifit to solve that issue

- Easy to use

- Can execute complexe data manipulation very easily

- Could be easier to connect to external datasets

- Can be sometimes slow when connecting to Google Sheets

I used Alteryx both as one-time analysis and for recurring operations tasks.

In both cases, we were able to manipulate large datasets and execute complex data manipulation very easily.

I used Alteryx to build an in-house production and inventory planning tool, that allowed us to scale the operations 1500% in 3 years.

Alteryx gives data power unlike before. Using this tool helps you unlock insights quickly to determine the best route for what you are going to do with these insights!

I honestly believe there are no downsides, Alteryx makes sure that they stay up to date.
