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.

Provides great flexibility in terms of data transformation
I really like the flexibility the solution provides in terms of data transformation. Workday introduced Prism Analytics mainly because many clients wanted to merge data from different systems and then work with it to get some insights out of it. For that, they previously used tools like Power BI. Workday Prism Analytics gives you the power to do all the data transformations within Workday itself without taking out crucial data to a third system. I really like the way Workday has enabled Prism Analytics to be that one solution where you can bring everything. It also provides you the flexibility that things like the security model of Workday are still in place. You don't have to redo your security configuration if you do the data transformation outside Workday.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"Our analyst’s time was cut from two days to one hour of data blending and the output was amazing!"
"The solution is user-friendly."
"Alteryx is so advanced. It's just drag and drop."
"You don't have to be tech-savvy or technical to use the solution."
"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 is easier to set up and implement and allowed us to also focus on different aspects of the business."
"If you are looking for a self-service data analytics tool, Alteryx is a good solution."
"The customer service and support are pretty good."
"I really like the flexibility the solution provides in terms of data transformation."
"The product is easier to use compared to other applications."
"Feature-wise, I feel that the solution's stability is good."
"The solution is stable and reliable, with minimal issues affecting its performance."
 

Cons

"The gallery could improve in Alteryx. Additionally, if there was a Conditional Join feature it would be beneficial. Since I do not have this feature I have to use Python scripts."
"The product pricing is a concern. I use Alteryx because my company provides it, but it would be too expensive if I had to pay for it myself."
"It would be great if Alteryx could take third party tools and incorporate them."
"More emphasis on extensible R and data augmentation interface design."
"Alteryx is a little bit expensive compared to competing solutions."
"Alteryx is not very robust when it comes to working on large sets of data."
"When a process completes there is a notification, but the notification does not include the process's name."
"The desktop license is expensive."
"It is not a very scalable product."
"One area for improvement in the solution is the ability to manually update individual rows or columns of data once it has been uploaded."
"The visualization techniques must be upgraded."
"When you create certain objects, a lot of the time, the fields are text. They’re not numeric, date, or any other field type"
"There is not much flexibility in how we can add external data within Workday Prisma Analytics."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's probably on the pricey side, but they provide some really useful ways to grow and test."
"The product is a bit expensive, it should be looked into."
