Beneficial data handling, simple scanning, and reliable
Pros and Cons
  • "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 price of the solution could improve by being lower."

What is our primary use case?

We utilize Alteryx for the purpose of transforming data to generate a report for data analysis that predicts the number of customers who will upgrade or downgrade within a specified time frame. After creating the workflow and building a dashboard on it, we set it up on a client-server to run live. When new product data is introduced, we fetch it directly from the database. This process is based on Microsoft SharePoint, and we have specific nodes for this purpose. With the appropriate access, the node will extract the data from Microsoft SharePoint and transform it into the desired format, which we then use to build KPIs and dashboards.

What is most valuable?

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.

Handling a set of data sets for building, cleaning, and preparing is a straightforward process.

What needs improvement?

The price of the solution could improve by being lower.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Alteryx for approximately two years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Alteryx is a stable solution.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I have used Knime previously.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

We use the free version of the solution. There are enterprise licenses available. It cost approximately $5,000 annually. It is an expensive solution and there are additional features that cost more money.

What other advice do I have?

In today's world, where every field deals with data, it is essential to have tools that enable us to manipulate, clean, transform, and build dashboards from data. Traditionally, Python and other programming languages were used for data preparation, but now with Alteryx Online, even individuals without coding experience can enter the field and provide valuable solutions to clients. This makes it a useful tool for anyone who needs to work with data.

I rate Alteryx a nine out of ten.

Scalable, unlimited handling capacity, and drag and drop capability
Pros and Cons
  • "The most valuable feature of Alteryx is its unlimited handling capabilities."
  • "Mastering Alteryx, a comprehensive solution, takes time. However, once you have gained proficiency with its layout and how to drag, drop, and connect components, it becomes remarkably easy, yet still thorough."

What is our primary use case?

Alteryx is the ultimate replacement for a data shop. I use Alteryx in place of a data center.

We using Alteryx on-premise using gaming systems for performance.

What is most valuable?

The most valuable feature of Alteryx is its unlimited handling capabilities.

What needs improvement?

Mastering Alteryx, a comprehensive solution, takes time. However, once you have gained proficiency with its layout and how to drag, drop, and connect components, it becomes remarkably easy, yet still thorough.

The visualization could improve in Alteryx. It is ideal to use another solution, such as Qlik, to make up for the lack of visualization.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Alteryx for approximately five years.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The solution is scalable. To scale the solution you will have to add more hardware to the on-premise setup, such as CPUs and memory.

What was our ROI?

We have received a return on investment using Alteryx after the first job.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The cost of Alteryx is approximately $2,900 annually.

What other advice do I have?

When I first started using the solution I was working with the state and was given six years of pregnant women and children data and it took 35 minutes to process the data. I tested the same data recently and it took .3 seconds.

Data should be returned within 30 seconds to make to process useful and if the solution does not provide this, then it is not beneficial.

Cloud deployments are not as quick as the on-premise.

I would advise others that they need someone who understands their domain in terms of the field that they are in. They need to have someone to hold their hand for the first ninety days. Once they pass the ninety days they will be set for the future.

I rate Alteryx a ten out of ten.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

On-premises
