Alteryx Reviews

Most of my use cases have been around just helping customers out, specifically in the financial sector. Within our company, I've been automating the reports, project reports, and using it mostly for the automation of weekly reports in our company.

The scheduling feature for the automation is excellent. The machine learning suite has been pretty useful in terms of building models. I've been exploring it for a while. The in-database tools are extremely useful as well.

The interfaces are perfect.

The solution is easy to set up.

The stability is quite good. 

We have found that the scalability is good and very easy to handle.

I still haven't had any issues with the Alteryx designer. I don't have anything to speak negatively of now, however, I'm sure there are some features that need improvement.

The technical support could have a little bit of improvement.

They should work to make the solution less expensive. 

The product needs some more tools for the image processing part. That would be pretty good. There's an image processing suite, however, it could use a little bit of improvement as well as the visualization aspect. 

They should maybe add some capabilities for more interactive dashboarding. That would be great.

I've been using Alteryx for a while now. I'm still learning about it. I'm still exploring it, but I've been using it for a while.

I've been using it for a little bit over six months now.

The product has been pretty stable, however, we aren't heavily utilizing the solution. It's hard to pass a fair judgment on our part, as we don't have that many users and the utilization of the server and designer haven't been very heavy so far. That said, for us, it's been extremely stable.

The scalability is extremely easy and very straightforward on Alteryx, especially the server for the controllers. You can easily start adding nodes for workers as well. The scalability is one of the things that get our customers mostly excited about how easy it is to start scaling the server.

In our organization, we have four Alteryx designer users and eight or nine server users.

Technical support is okay and could be better. Sometimes, it takes about two to five days to hear an answer from the technical support team. That said, when they do reply, they're very helpful. The community is very helpful. However, due to the fact that there's such a wide range of issues that could be going on, you could get lost in trying to find a solution on the community.

I have not personally used any different solution. 

The initial setup is extremely straightforward.

It took about 30 minutes for the designer and the server overall to be deployed. It was easy and it's really fast. 

There isn't much maintenance needed. I handle all of the maintenance myself. 

Everything was handled by the company in-house. We didn't need any help from consultants or integrators. 

While we have personally seen ROI so far, I wouldn't be the one to make that judgment as to how much. That's mostly due to the fact that I'm the data engineer. I don't have a look at the numbers. I just automate processes and help customers out. That said, customers are happy with their investment in this product overall. 

Since we're partners, we get licenses. That said, from the feedback I hear, the price is a little bit more on the expensive side.

We do yearly subscriptions. There are machine learning suites that do come at an extra cost as well. 

We are partners with Alteryx.

I'm using version 21, the latest version, which may be either 21.1.4 or 0.3.2.

I would advise potential new users to go through the community to learn. They should go through the learning path for the Alteryx solution for both the designer and the server. It's good to take it slowly. New users should be able to do this within a month or two. The solution is pretty straightforward to learn.

I'd rate the solution at an eight out of ten.

I use Alteryx for integration, data integration, and advanced analytics with several companies.

Alteryx integrates well. The most valuable feature for me is integration.

I can read data from a database on the web and import it into my Alteryx database.

It is very easy to use. 

It's quite user-friendly, which I enjoy.

The workflow and pipeline need to improve. For example, if you have a job running, and you need to run another, the scheduling could be easier in Alteryx.

In the next release, I would like to see the completed pipeline, improved workflow with data, easier, and better scheduling to allow tasks to run one after the other.

I have been using Alteryx for one year.

We are using the latest version.

The Alteryx server is running on an EC2 AWS computer, and we have the desktop version installed on our notebooks.

Alteryx is a stable solution. We had no issues with bugs or glitches.

It is easy to scale.

Technical support is very good.

It took us two years to implement Alteryx in our organization.

I would recommend this solution. I like it.

I would rate Alteryx a nine out of ten.

We are mainly using Alteryx for data preparation and processing data. 

We are also monitoring for some of our customers, in product analysis, regressions or customer segmentations, and column correlations analysis.

The GUI is simple and it integrates with Python.

For the area in Alteryx, such as the server the prices are high and it would be better to reduce the fees.

Some of the new tools in the intelligence Suite are the Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and the Natural Language Processing (NLP) language for English characters. We are hoping that the NLP features will also support Chinese characters.

We started carrying Alteryx in February of this year, 2020.

Alteryx is a stable product.

This is a very scalable solution. For every organization or company, there are a few data scientists working with Alteryx. For some of the enterprise, they have a team of five working with this solution, whereas others have two.

Community support is good, but I have not yet contacted technical support. I am not able to assess them.

As a Data Scientist Platform, Alteryx is the first platform that we have worked with.

I have worked with IBM and some other vendors from Hong Kong.

The initial setup is easy, straightforward, and simple.

Within hours, I can have the designer up and running.

The price for Alteryx Designer is reasonable but the price of the Alteryx Server for universal collaborations is too expensive.

I am currently doing a comparison between Data IQ and Alteryx.

Most of our clients in Hong Kong are on-premises because they don't want to share the data on the Cloud.

We use several other products because we want a unified platform for our customers.

If you have experience with Excel, macros, or VBA then you have a great foundation to use Alteryx.

I would rate Alteryx an eight out of ten.

We use this solution for self-service data preparation from data warehouses and data marts.

It gives the power back to the end-users. It brings flexibility and accuracy to our new analytics.

The most valuable feature of this solution is data preparation.

Alteryx Connect (data catalog) is also really important for us.

The event handling, such that the file system watcher, is in need of improvement.

Data Blending and Predictive Analytics: Alteryx is very intuitive and you don’t need to know how to write code to use Alteryx.

It helped us reduce time blending data from multiple sources into one file. Our analyst’s time was cut from two days to one hour of data blending and the output was amazing! And we could map out file-run predictive analytics in the same tool.

Visualization: There is room to improve here.

I have used it for two years; this is our third year using Alteryx Designer.

I did not encounter any stability issues.

I did not encounter any scalability issues.

I haven’t had to call tech support.

I did not previously use a different solution. I used to copy and paste and convert data.

Initial setup was straightforward.

Buy a single desktop license, and if more is needed, you can expand. Initially I would advise clients to start with the 14-day trial license.

I did not evaluate other options.

Try the free trial.

As a multiple data source blending tool and predictive analytics tool, Alteryx stands out from an ease-of-use and flexibility perspective.

This is a data science solution, more like an ETL tool where you have data that you want to convert or transform. I'm a solutions architect and support the platform. The application is being maintained by a different team. We are customers of Alteryx. 

The solution does a good job with data transformation. We're using it for our business modeling.

This is a proprietary tool and maybe the open source part of it could be improved. If there was an open source edition it would be an advantage; at least the training part of it could be freely available and then people would be more likely to adopt it.

We've been using this solution for a couple of months. 

We haven't had any problems with stability. 

I haven't found any scalability limitations. 

The initial setup was straightforward. 

The choice of product really depends on your needs. I would prefer to use NinePlatform for open sources certainly, but if you're after a proprietary solution because you have different needs, then I think Alteryx is a really good solution if you are looking for a scale. It all differs from case to case depending on requirements.

It's about the feasibility of the product for your specific use case, so I rate this solution a six out of ten. 

My company uses Alteryx differently for each of our clients' individual cases.

It has helped across my organization.

Let's say we have a client that has been mostly using Excel for their data preparation, data casing, etc. By using Alteryx, they now spend most of their time in the data prep and then just go to reporting. It saves a lot of time.

I actually like all of their features. But the feature I have found most valuable is the data profiling. I can check the quality of my data and everything else. 

Alteryx is very good - I don't see any room for improvement. I can't think of any downside to Alteryx.

I use a lot of third-party tools with Alteryx. It would be great if Alteryx could take third party tools and incorporate them.

I have been working with Alteryx around two years.

In terms of stability, Alteryx is stable.

It is scalable. We currently have all of our almost 20 employees using Alteryx with plans to expand.

Their technical support is good.

The initial setup was straightforward. Depending on your machine it usually takes less than 20 minutes.

Alteryx is very good. You can do literately anything on Alteryx. Alteryx is so advanced. It's just drag and drop. You don't need to know any coding or other technical stuff to use Alteryx.

On a scale from 1 to 10, where 1 is the worst and 10 is the best, I would rate Alteryx a 10. No doubt, a 10.

We are using this solution mostly for ETL purposes, and we have just started using advanced analytics, demand forecasting, and some supply chain optimization tasks.

The design portion of this tool is easy to use without code, which his something that something we can appreciate. We can say it's code-free usage.

There are no ready models to use in analytics. There is no content. You have the tools but you don't have the content.

In the next release, I would like to see Auto Machine Learning.

I have been using this solution for three years.

We have just upgraded to the latest version.

This is a stable solution.

This solution is scalable.

We have ten users in our company, who are engineers and business analysts.

Team members have contacted technical support for troubleshooting purposes. The technical support is sufficient.

Previously, we were using Microsoft System Servers. Alteryx has a more user-friendly interface allowing more non-users to use it.

The initial setup was simple. Just connect to a couple of data sources and transform the data. It took about three months to deploy.

We do the maintenance of what has already been developed. 

We did not use a vendor, we did the implementation on our own.

There are some implementation services and internal effort costs at the beginning but there is nothing else.

This is a product that I recommend.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.
