Automated complex ETL workflows have reduced coding effort and improved data integration
One area for improvement is in integrating mostly the data which comes from telemetry, where I can see some sort of improvisations can be made. It is a massive amount of unstructured data, and I believe Alteryx is able to handle it, but there can be some improvements. Suggestions for improvements in Alteryx include areas for increasing efficiency, particularly in processing telemetry data, which involves dealing with large volumes of unstructured data. Additionally, I believe when we use filter tools immediately after the input source, there can be slowdowns when handling massive data. The user experience of Alteryx is generally good, but there are areas for improvement from a user's perspective, particularly regarding user interface enhancements. I think there's always room for improvement, but otherwise, Alteryx has been a great tool for me. We haven't experienced significant disruptions while increasing data volumes, though I sense there could be performance issues as data grows exponentially. This is an area that could use improvement in Alteryx.

Automated data collection has replaced manual emails and now connects business forms to back-end reports
Prophecy can be improved, as right now the form is very limited. We have to do a lot of manual entry with the form to get it set up. We have a lot of things that change year over year, so I have to go in there and manually play around with it, manually changing this and that. Having dynamic forms, having the forms connect to back-end data, and basically making the forms more streamlined would be my need from Prophecy. Everything else on the back end, the pipelines, and those types of things have been pretty easy to understand. I think once you get things set up, I've been very impressed with it. The only improvement at least for my side would be the form.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The main valuable aspect is the simplicity of use across all features."
"Alteryx has positively impacted my organization by saving time, improving accuracy, and enabling better decision-making."
"One-stop shop for data preparation, blending, prediction, and optimization in a single workflow."
"It is a very user-friendly product that doesn’t require a strong technical background; you can build something within an hour."
"The product is very stable and super fast, five-star. It's significantly more stable than it's nearest competitor."
"Any company considering a data processing platform which is light, offers good flexibility, and deals with moderate or low sized data, will find this is a really good spend."
"The tools are built-in; you just plug and play, drag and drop, and once you understand how to use the tools, it is easy."
"The connectors are a very good feature."
"Prophecy has positively impacted my organization by greatly speeding up development time and providing capabilities of using DBT alongside functionalities associated with that, making it a very good tool to avoid coding much and utilize AI with the graphical tools available without needing to code."
"The form feature of Prophecy is so valuable for our team because it saves us a lot of time."
 

Cons

"Alteryx is a little bit expensive compared to competing solutions."
"The price could be better; though we are satisfied with the solution, we feel the price to be a bit on the expensive side and we would like to improve on and escalate Alteryx, but find it too expensive at the moment to do so."
"Lacks an open source edition which would be helpful."
"It would be great to create the final users' visualization within Alteryx."
"The solution could improve in the visualization."
"It should have Linux support. It currently supports only Windows. It does not support any other platform. Its price should also be lower. Their US partner management program is actually unresponsive. One of the reasons why we don't have a formalized partnership plan with them is because their partner management team is atrociously unresponsive. This is something that they need to change."
"An improvement for Alteryx Designer would be faster bug fixes and updates."
"The screen when you are looking into your workflows and your ETL processes needs to be improved. You cannot manage it very well."
"Prophecy is pretty stable, but there are often some unexpected issues that arise, especially performance issues or problems with Airflow on deployments."
"Prophecy can be improved, as right now the form is very limited."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution has a more costly license than other tools in the market."
"A designer and scheduler for $13K/year in total is pretty much earning you the money back in time and in other resources."
"The product is a bit expensive, it should be looked into."
"Alteryx is generally more suited for medium—to large companies due to its potentially high licensing costs."
"I rate the solution's pricing as a ten, as it is highly priced."
"I rate the product's pricing a two to three out of ten."
"It's probably on the pricey side, but they provide some really useful ways to grow and test."
"There is a license required for this solution."
