Time-saving workflows have transformed data preparation and predictive analysis for my team
Some of the best features Alteryx offers are its no and low-code capabilities. It delivers massive time-saving and includes spatial and predictive analysis. Alteryx includes built-in tools such as drive time analysis and linear regression, which are much harder to achieve in standard BI tools such as Power BI or Tableau. In addition to these features, Alteryx provides built-in spatial tools that can calculate drive time and location-based insights with minimal effort through drag-and-drop spatial tools, low complex coding, faster, and more accurate results. Linear regression predicts sales based on marketing spend, estimates costs based on usage, and identifies trends in historical data. Alteryx has positively impacted my organization by saving time, improving accuracy, and enabling better decision-making. Using Alteryx, complex tasks such as data cleansing, joining datasets, drive time analysis, and linear regression can be done much faster compared to manual Excel or SQL work. This reduces dependency on manual effort and lowers the risk of human error. Drive time analysis helps my organization make better location-based decisions, such as identifying optimal service areas or improving customer reach.

I would recommend buying this product for loan origination purposes
FICO OM is very flexible in terms of development, with rapid application development options Streamlined loan origination processes. Credit products. Two years. No. No. Below average. Straightforward. Flexible. Yes, we did. I would recommend buying this product for loan origination…

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 is very stable and super fast, also five-star."
"Alteryx has a good UI. We use it frequently in our projects. The tool comes with drag-and-drop features and is easy to understand for business needs. One situation where Alteryx's advanced analytics capabilities were particularly beneficial for us was during a forecasting project. Unlike Python, which requires coding, Alteryx simplifies the process significantly. With Alteryx, users can adjust parameters within the user interface without writing any code."
"You get more support with Alteryx, and it's good for non-sophisticated users who can benefit from the support included in the price."
"Shortens the time required to start analyzing data and looking for insights, minimizing the tasks that do not add value to the business and maximizing the analysis phase."
"The filtering is fast, and it provides a search tool that is great."
"The cloud deployment ensures it scales easily."
"The connectors are a very good feature."
"It is efficient in optimizing our ability to get information."
"FICO OM is very flexible in terms of development, with rapid application development options."
"The idea that you don't have to generate reports each day but they are sent automatically is great."
"In this sector of the market, it is indeed a better tool than the other data analytics tool, such as QlikView, for example."
"We like the way we can drill down into each report to get back data on each project, and from the portfolio level I can see what is happening on it, including indirect costs hitting each CIO portfolio and actual resources in terms of time as well as cost."
"In general, I would say that this is a good tool and I recommend it."
"The most valuable feature is the performance."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of setting up visualizations."
"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

"The scalability worries me a lot at the moment because the cost of the solution is high and it is not growing considerably. Unfortunately, we started during early COVID times and because of the economic downturn, all the cost cuttings, and everything, it is not growing as expected."
"Alteryx can improve in data science. They have to have more features and components in the data science aspect because they claim to be a data science tool. However, in order to be more competitive, they have to improve on their data science propositions. Thre are other solutions on the market, such as other players in the market, Data2Go or DataIQ, and Alteryx needs to catch up."
"The principal problem is the pricing. They're expensive products."
"The GUI interface functions but it could stand to be updated to a more modern look and feel."
"I'd like to see more artificial intelligence business tools or features in Alteryx."
"What they're struggling with is it's not as mature as Tableau in the user management area. It was tougher to manage the server part of it right away, especially since the user base has grown."
"Alteryx can improve the model management and deployment processing of large workloads."
"Alteryx's development environment could be improved as it requires installation locally and can't be developed in the cloud."
"Customer service is below average."
"At this point, there are other tools that I would recommend before using Spotfire."
"I would like the visualization for the map of countries to be more easily configurable."
"The scripting for customization could be improved."
"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 initial setup was quite complex."
"The scripting for customization could be improved."
"Whenever the client or someone was opening the report it would take around 15 to 20 minutes to open the first time."
"Additional templates would help to get things moving more quickly in terms of getting the reports out."
 

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 price could be better."
"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 has a list price of $5,995 USD."
"While it offers extensive features, including predictive analytics, for those who mainly use it for data preparation and blending, the cost can be prohibitive."
"The price for Alteryx Designer is reasonable but the price for Alteryx Server for universal collaborations is too expensive."
"It is an expensive solution."
"The desktop platform costs $5,000 per year. It's very costly."
