We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"I have been using Alteryx Designer only for data modeling and data structuring.""For my daily analytics needs, the entire Alteryx Designer platform is beneficial.""It helps them to create customized workflows, transform data, perform calculations, and consolidate multiple data sources into a target database.""The most valuable features are the integrated properties and integrated connectivity.""We use Alteryx Designer for analytics. It's quite helpful because once we set it up, we don't have to manually update or process data repeatedly. It saves time, especially for financial reporting, which is typically done monthly or quarterly. Once we set it up initially, we only need to make occasional updates if necessary.""It has great UI.""I like Alteryx Designer's drag-and-drop feature, where you drag a component, configure it and quickly run it.""The solution is user-friendly."

"The product is very user-friendly.""There are a lot of options in Spring Cloud. It's flexible in terms of how we can use it. It's a full infrastructure.""The most valuable feature is real-time streaming.""The most valuable features of Spring Cloud Data Flow are the simple programming model, integration, dependency Injection, and ability to do any injection. Additionally, auto-configuration is another important feature because we don't have to configure the database and or set up the boilerplate in the database in every project. The composability is good, we can create small workloads and compose them in any way we like."

Cons
"The only thing is sometimes it can be a bit slow.""Alteryx's data science and machine learning capabilities are where it loses out to DataIQ.""Its price can be improved. It is too expensive for our country. Because of its high price, we can't sell Alteryx Designer in this region. We used to be their reseller partner. There is also an additional cost for automating the data and running the flows, which makes it even more expensive. It will be very good if they can let users automate the data for free. Other solutions like Tableau provide this feature for free.""Its cost can sometimes be a drawback.""The major concern in Alteryx Designer stems from the high costs attached to the product.""When configuring the Logix, the UA could be improved.""Alteryx could move faster to create a cloud equivalent of the desktop version of Designer.""If the price were reduced then it would be more competitive."

More Alteryx Designer Cons →

"On the tool's online discussion forums, you may get stuck with an issue, making it an area where improvements are required.""Some of the features, like the monitoring tools, are not very mature and are still evolving.""Spring Cloud Data Flow could improve the user interface. We can drag and drop in the application for the configuration and settings, and deploy it right from the UI, without having to run a CI/CD pipeline. However, that does not work with Kubernetes, it only works when we are working with jars as the Spring Cloud Data Flow applications.""The configurations could be better. Some configurations are a little bit time-consuming in terms of trying to understand using the Spring Cloud documentation."

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."

  • "This is an open-source product that can be used free of charge."
  • "If you want support from Spring Cloud Data Flow there is a fee. The Spring Framework is open-source and this is a free solution."
