Senior Staff Cyber Security Cloud Data Architect at GE Healthcare
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.

Fast in taking unstructured data, processing it and spitting out all the different data types. The team moved to SSIS/SSRS, I suspect it didn’t fit in with the goal of creating a data warehouse.
The manual calculations and formulae. They were a bit complex. The formulae were a bit abstract. Not easy to understand. Not intuitive. I sat beside an SSIS guru and he took one look at them and said “Good luck Geoff”. I coded them all and after I left, I got a call from a techy there asking me what they were all about! He hadn’t a clue how to unravel them, even with documentation. Also, they managed to accidentally delete them all. No idea how they did that. After a few panic-filled phone calls, they dropped the whole thing. It was a mess there. Glad I left.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Alteryx has cut down on time spent cleaning and transforming the data, improved productivity, and transitioning from PoC to other users was seamless because the users upskilled quickly and could take ownership without a steep learning curve."
"It has everything that one needs. Whatever you want to do with the data can be done with Alteryx."
"It saves time on a lot projects. ​"
"The main benefits that Alteryx provides for me are that it is easier to use, I do not have to code anything, so it is a non-coding tool, and it saves my time in that aspect."
"Alteryx helps me do a lot of automation. The best thing about Alteryx is that you don't have to repeat the workflow over and over again. Unlike Excel, where you need to write formulas for each new file, Alteryx follows a consistent process. You can schedule and automate the workflow, even if the files change."
"The support is very good."
"I like that I can merge data from different sources into one place."
"The support is very good overall; we are satisfied with their level of service, and they are knowledgeable and responsive."
"The customer service was very good."
"We were easily able to merge the two sets of data and find the inconsistencies between the two allowing us to complete this part of the project in speedy fashion."
"It is excellent for data profiling."
"Pandora provides a quick, efficient way to analyze, control and improve data using integrated technology."
"X88 gave a quick view of the quality of the data and a rapid way to fix issues before exporting for use."
"The product allowed us to complete the project on time and within budget and is continuing to be used on subsequent Data Migration/Integration projects."
"It has given us the ability to build information that wasn’t otherwise there, to build confidence in our applications, to troubleshoot data effectively and focus our efforts on genuine errors."
 

Cons

"I mostly used it for flat files, but I have many colleagues who reported that to tune a query, in case they want to directly connect to the database, there is no option to optimize the performance of the query, as we have in Informatica."
"Alteryx can improve the model management and deployment processing of large workloads."
"There are a few imputation techniques which they really need to include."
"The tool could include more native connectors, such as for global ERPs, instead of requiring additional fees for these connections."
"In terms of data extraction, during the sequel queries of servers as an example, you can structure your sequel query and it's fine, very readable, but once you run it, it crashes into one complex single line, and makes it very difficult."
"They should work on its pricing."
"The pricing seems high for my current needs. However, considering the benefits, it is easier to justify to management for broader company usage."
"The event handling, such that the file system watcher, is in need of improvement."
"The free data profiler doesn't contain enough dashboards to give the user a better feel of the program."
"The product appears to be horizontally scalable, but is not something I would use in a large scale automated architecture."
"End to End connectivity could do with some improvement which I believe they are working on at this time."
"The online training is very useful but needs expanding and updating – it has loads of potential."
"The tool was very unstable and was constantly hogging the resources, even if was not operating at the moment."
"It is way, way over-priced in my opinion."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The license price of the solution is expensive."
"It has a good price."
"While it offers extensive features, including predictive analytics, for those who mainly use it for data preparation and blending, the cost can be prohibitive."
"Alteryx is generally more suited for medium—to large companies due to its potentially high licensing costs."
"Alteryx is an expensive solution."
"​Very transparent.​"
"I rate the tool's pricing a two out of ten."
"Opt for the three year subscription. It is 20% less than the yearly one."
