Alteryx Designer vs Zapier comparison

"Alteryx Designer is easier to use for machine learning models. However, I am not very good at Python scripts which you will need to make the machine learning scripts."

"It helps them to create customized workflows, transform data, perform calculations, and consolidate multiple data sources into a target database."

"I have been using Alteryx Designer only for data modeling and data structuring."

"The product is very stable. The performance is reliable."

"Alteryx Designer offers a drag-and-drop interface, making it highly user-friendly. Unlike Python and Apache Airflow, which require coding, Alteryx allows users to accomplish tasks without any programming knowledge. Its simplicity makes it accessible to anyone, even those without coding experience, and this ease of use is one of Alteryx's key advantages."

"Alteryx Designer is stable."

"The solution's ability to hold a huge amount of data in its memory is significant."

"The features I found most valuable are the preparation features – the Join and the Transform."

"The product's most valuable feature is automation."

"Zapier is a really good tool for connecting multiple different platforms and data sources. For example, with Quickbase, I can easily integrate data from other sources like AWS or task-tracking platforms such as ClickUp or Asana."

"Zapier handles everything under the sun that you would think you need in automation. It is the most mature integration platform and service on the market."

"What's most valuable in Zapier is its simplicity, seamlessness, and smooth plug-in, so you won't need to build code for every action. I'm not a developer, but I can use Zapier."

"The most valuable feature of Zapier is it saves me time doing repetitive tasks."

"We can connect Zapier with Zoho CRM for lead generation. I like the tool's drag and drop feature."

"The solution is a SaaS and does not require a complex setup."

"Zapier luckily has a wide range of integrations, I would say."

"Improving the key-based sign-on process and making it more user-friendly would be a benefit."

"Sometimes, while getting data from a third-party product, the solution works slowly."

"An improvement for Alteryx Designer would be faster bug fixes and updates."

"It is challenging to view the data using Alteryx Designer."

"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."

"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."

"Alteryx Designer is not as fast as SSIS and is not good for large datasets. It also needs to improve database procedures. Though it is easy to use, it is limited in terms of technical aspects."

"The product could offer more connectors and more databases with support for the in-database function."

"After mapping them out, and they'd worked for a while, I've had Zapier fail."

"Zapier could be a little faster, but that might not be possible. I would encourage Zapier to make more API endpoints for each application"

"With Zapier, improvements are required in the areas of concerns like bugs, ease of use, and documentation."

"Being able to share Zaps and organize them with teammates would allow sharing and refining scenarios and even combining steps that require different people's credentials."

"Some apps are not available yet. For instance, a connection with Joomla! would be great. In general, all the most-used apps are available, but I bumped into Joomla! with a client."

"Zapier needs to improve in the same way most RPA solutions should, such as Robocorp, Make, or UiPath. They are not good at helping you find the connections that you need for the problem that you have. For example, if need something on Instagram. I'm going to have to do research for hours to be able to find the components or the app, which is going to do what I need it to do. It makes it difficult to use the system when you don't know what to use."

"The solution does not work properly when we apply filters and we get errors."

"It is not worth the money if you have a little bit of a technical mind...Zapier is not able to set up different modules. When automation doesn't work, it's not that easy to find why it didn't work."

"I rate Alteryx Designer a six out of ten for pricing."

"I rate the product's pricing a two to three out of ten."

"Alteryx Designer is an expensive solution."

"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."

"The solution is expensive. It has license fees, which are renewable every year."

"Alteryx Designer is an expensive solution."

"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."

"The pricing is bit expensive."

"Think your Zaps through to make sure you don't use more Zaps than you need."

"Zapier's price is good."

"The least expensive plan is $24 a month, and you can go all the way to $800 a month if you're a huge company using many tasks."

"Zapier is a paid service. Its license renews monthly, and Zapier will downgrade your subscription to the free version when your credit card doesn't have funds. That significantly impacts your service because everything halts completely. Zapier doesn't have any hidden costs."

"There is a free plan that is, of course, limited. However, it allows you to understand and check true scenarios for a while."

"The product is reasonably priced."

"It's very straightforward licensing. There's only one cost you have to pay, and if you want a relevant pricing plan, I think you have two or three different models or packages which include the number of notifications or Zaps, as they call it, that you can program."

"Per task, there is a monthly plan involving 15 euros...Also, in different forms, they just give you the ability to use different features. They charge 18.58 euros for the first standard plan, which includes 750 tasks. So, it is about 25 cents per task."
