An easy-to-use automation solution with satisfying customer support
Sometimes, while getting data from a third-party product, like data sources that are not present in your system, Alteryx works a bit slowly. Even if you have a good configuration and you are pulling data from an SQL server like SAP, then the solution also has a slow work process. It shouldn't be that much slow if you are pulling ten thousand records, it should not take thirty minutes.

Decreases the development timeframe and costs
The main issue with the product is pricing. It uses core-based pricing for WSO2 Enterprise Integrator and API Manager. It would be best if you had APIM by default. It provides many connectors for easy integration with third-party systems. Often, customers decide to develop using open-source tools like Spring Boot if there aren't many connectors required to avoid increasing costs. They'll develop this way and then deploy using APIM, the bare minimum needed. It is mainly required for very complicated setups with many connectors. In the implementations I've seen, people often used open-source tools because there weren't many third-party systems involved—just their organization's own systems. From WSO2 Enterprise Integrator, I expect them to bring up more and more connectors in the future. That's the main expectation. Having more connectors in various areas will help us when discussing new requirements. I don't have any specific use case right now, so I can't name a particular connector. But, as new technologies emerge, the relevant connectors should be there for those. WSO2 Enterprise Integrator mainly helps with the integration part, which can be simplified only if you have relevant connectors for whatever you're doing.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I believe in the ability to connect to multiple data sources, as well as the ease of use to transform data and output data in a variety of formats."
"The features I found most valuable are the preparation features – the Join and the Transform."
"It has an easy setup process."
"The most valuable feature of Alteryx Designer is its ability to select all the inputs and formulas."
"The main valuable aspect is the simplicity of use across all features."
"Alteryx Designer's user interface is great, as it is very user-friendly."
"The functionality of drag and drop is the most valuable. It is a very user-friendly tool that can be understood easily. My teams also work with other solutions, such as Integration Services, and these solutions are very difficult for people who don't have technical knowledge."
"It has great UI."
"The customer service executives are very responsive."
"The connectors have been the most impactful features for handling integrations. I can use these connectors when I need specific connectivity with a third party, like a core banking system in BFSI. I don't need to do all the development. I take the specific connector, put in the IP address and password, and it takes care of everything."
"The stability is excellent."
"The solution basically conforms to our standards."
"Currently, I find the configuration part quite valuable, where you can easily configure things."
"The learning curve for this solution is very good."
"The installation process is easy."
"The solution's customer service is good."
 

Cons

"Its cost can sometimes be a drawback."
"The only thing is sometimes it can be a bit slow."
"An improvement for Alteryx Designer would be faster bug fixes and updates."
"It is challenging to view the data using Alteryx Designer."
"The major concern in Alteryx Designer stems from the high costs attached to the product."
"Alteryx needs to improve its web governance. The gallery you use to filter the data is something else that could use some work. For instance, if you have a report connected to a database and want to filter a specific user, you should be able to suggest a specific region or a particular year. I know that the Alteryx isn't designed for data governance, but that would be great to think about."
"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."
"You cannot include the validation of XPath."
"I would like to see them bring back a feature, from earlier versions, that was very useful in debugging and finding issues."
"The micro integrator should be improved. There is room for enhancement considering alternative integration components."
"There are a lot of security settings that when you apply you have to re-apply again every time you modify a setting. It is something that really needs to be enhanced."
"They should release upgrades more frequently."
"The integration capabilities need to be improved."
"The setup can be difficult for those not familiar with the solution."
"If I have to buy software, then it becomes expensive for me."
