Cons
"Alteryx could move faster to create a cloud equivalent of the desktop version of Designer.""The conditional join feature should be improved.""When it comes to the pivoting part, the drill-through option is not there in Alteryx.""When configuring the Logix, the UA could be improved.""Sometimes, while getting data from a third-party product, the solution works slowly.""Alteryx Designer's cost should be improved.""The actual usage part of it needs to be explained more. It's too vague right now.""Optimizing processing times is one area I would like to see improved in Alteryx Designer. Sometimes, the workflows take an extremely long time to run. There are days when I have had to wait two to three hours for a single process to complete. There needs to be a functionality to split the processes."

More Alteryx Designer Cons →

"The frontend capabilities of Palantir Foundry could be improved.""There is not a wide user base for the solution's online documentation so it is sometimes difficult to find answers.""The workflow could be improved.""It requires a lot of manual work and is very time-consuming to get to a functional point.""They do not have a data center in Europe, and we have lots of personally identifiable information in our dataset that needs to be hosted by a third-party data center like Amazon or Microsoft Azure.""It would be helpful to build applications based on Azure functions or web apps in Palantir Foundry.""If you want to create new models on specific data sets, computing that is quite costly.""The data lineage was challenging. It's hard to track data from the sources as it moves through stages. Informatica EDC can easily capture and report it because it talks to the metadata. This is generated across those various staging points."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It is too expensive for our country. We are a small country, so it is too difficult to sell this solution. With Alteryx Designer, if you want to automate the data and run the flows, you have to pay more money. We were trying to automate the flows, and we found out that people have to pay 600 more for this feature, which makes it even more expensive. We are a partner for Tableau, and we are working with Tableau Prep, which is like a mini Alteryx. In Tableau Prep, you can drag and drop and make new connections with the different data sources. You can make all the connections. You can also publish a source. You don't have to pay more money with Tableau. You pay like $5 per user per month to access it."
  • "Alteryx is a little bit expensive compared to competing solutions."
  • "Alteryx Designer is an expensive solution."
  • "I rate Alteryx Designer a six out of ten for pricing."
  • "The licenses are expensive, making it difficult to consider acquiring additional licenses to the existing ones."
  • "Each license is something like $4,000."
  • "I rate the price of Alteryx Designer as a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is extremely expensive, and ten is a highly cheap product."
  • "I rate the price of Alteryx Designer a ten on a scale of one to ten, where one is low price and ten is high price."
