We performed a comparison between Alteryx and MicroStrategy based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Predictive Analytics solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."There are a lot of good customization capabilities."
"The support is very good."
"Alteryx makes it easy for the end customer to see clean data in a structured form."
"The most valuable feature is user-friendliness, as Alteryx can be used by those without any coding experience or experienced data scientists as it has the functionality to embed R and Python scripts."
"The solution offers excellent predicting power. The accuracy and confidence have been great."
"It's super easy to learn how to use it — the learning curve is very small."
"It is a stable and scalable solution."
"The most valuable feature of Alteryx is its stand-alone version that we do not have to download dependencies for loads. Additionally, the scan is useful for beginners."
"The platform can be easily monitored. You have quite a good overview of tasks which are being run."
"We have ramped up user adoption."
"I really like the visualizations. I like how you can put large data sets in there, then the user can quickly go through the data and drill down at various levels to understand things."
"It is one tool which you can find everything. "
"The mobile for MicroStrategy is the best of all the BI platforms. As a separate product for the mobile device, MicroStrategy is the entire BI platform. It is an enterprise solution, a separate unit, etc."
"Speed for high level aggregation by using Intelligent Cubes."
"The solution has excellent features available on mobile."
"The option to use various administrative tools, like Integrity Manager, is a valuable feature."
"Configuration is very low."
"In the database, it should be more functional and connect to more big data, especially using IPI."
"It would be great to create the final users' visualization within Alteryx."
"The GUI interface functions but it could stand to be updated to a more modern look and feel."
"It is a little bit pricey."
"Lacks an open source edition which would be helpful."
"The event handling, such that the file system watcher, is in need of improvement."
"The principal problem is the pricing. They're expensive products."
"They need to supply the support system that's just not there right now. They don't have Enterprise Manager classes. You need in-depth classes to understand what those metrics are doing, to understand the table associations from one to the other. You can't just go and pick it up and understand that DT_DAY connects to all of these tables, without going into Architect, looking at the source tables. I, as a analyst, a slightly technical user, I don't have the expertise to do that. Business users definitely don't have the expertise to do that."
"The In-Memory Capability (cubes) needs a lot of improvement."
"We have seen some stability issues with MicroStrategy on cloud. We have a few unhappy customers."
"We've found the scalability to be very good. However, it depends on the environment. In general, it could be much better."
"If you compare it with Power BI with the DAX language, it would be great to put that into MicroStrategy."
"I know we are not competing against Tableau, but MicroStrategy needs to step up its game on the GUI side."
"MicroStrategy's mobile dashboard is still not a RESTful design."
"Scalability is something which will need to be improved when it goes to a bigger audience."
