Time-saving workflows have transformed data preparation and predictive analysis for my team
Some of the best features Alteryx offers are its no and low-code capabilities. It delivers massive time-saving and includes spatial and predictive analysis. Alteryx includes built-in tools such as drive time analysis and linear regression, which are much harder to achieve in standard BI tools such as Power BI or Tableau. In addition to these features, Alteryx provides built-in spatial tools that can calculate drive time and location-based insights with minimal effort through drag-and-drop spatial tools, low complex coding, faster, and more accurate results. Linear regression predicts sales based on marketing spend, estimates costs based on usage, and identifies trends in historical data. Alteryx has positively impacted my organization by saving time, improving accuracy, and enabling better decision-making. Using Alteryx, complex tasks such as data cleansing, joining datasets, drive time analysis, and linear regression can be done much faster compared to manual Excel or SQL work. This reduces dependency on manual effort and lowers the risk of human error. Drive time analysis helps my organization make better location-based decisions, such as identifying optimal service areas or improving customer reach.

Is easy to deploy and is stable and scalable
I like the load balancing feature The normalization factor should be improved so that it is better scaled. It should be more user-friendly. It should be easier to export reports. I've been using SQL Power Data Quality for 10 years. SQL Power Data Quality is stable. It is a scalable solution.…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Alteryx is easier to set up and implement and allowed us to also focus on different aspects of the business."
"Alteryx has helped us spend more time identifying results instead of performing analysis manually, helped us in our loading process including scrubbing data and identifying data elements that need to be corrected, and enabled us to understand our data sets a lot better."
"The product's initial setup phase is simple and straightforward."
"The solution has excellent drag and drop functionality, there's no need for coding, and there are nodes ready for us to use as well, which makes everything extremely easy and the user-friendliness a big draw for us."
"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."
"The GUI is simple and it integrates with Python."
"Alteryx is the kind of software that a corporation would want to go with and to deploy for people who are not really data scientists and that have to use data, design dashboards, clean and prepare data and so on."
"The solution has been stable."
"The solution is very easy to use and it's quite flexible."
"It is a scalable solution. We have over 1,000 SQL Power Data Quality users in our organization."
"SQL Power Data Quality is truly a proven product that makes the work of cleaning data in both source and target data easy yet efficient."
"The solution is able to integrate with many systems and other products."
"The Nomo, select form, and so on are the most valuable features."
 

Cons

"The only area where the product lags is documentation and videos on the analytical app and the batch macro."
"The data integration component could most likely be improved to increase enterprise scalability."
"The event handling, such that the file system watcher, is in need of improvement."
"The biggest limitation is that the solution doesn't allow you to do sophisticated things in terms of fiddling with their implementations of machine learning and deep learning components."
"The scalability worries me a lot at the moment because the cost of the solution is high and it is not growing considerably. Unfortunately, we started during early COVID times and because of the economic downturn, all the cost cuttings, and everything, it is not growing as expected."
"Alteryx is not very robust when it comes to working on large sets of data."
"The pricing seems high for my current needs. However, considering the benefits, it is easier to justify to management for broader company usage."
"Due to some complexities in Alteryx, we are moving away from it."
"The only area of improvement that we've come across within the solution was the portfolio roadmap creation. There's a bit of limitation there, but otherwise, the tool itself is very good."
"The normalization factor should be improved so that it is better scaled. It should be more user-friendly."
"The only area of improvement that we've come across within the solution was the portfolio roadmap creation. There's a bit of limitation there, but otherwise, the tool itself is very good."
"Downtime issues should be improved."
"Integrating SQL Power with the system is challenging especially in places where no tutorials found and new versions continue to be released with varying requirements."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The license price of the solution is expensive."
"The designer has a list price of $5,995 USD."
"Alteryx is generally more suited for medium—to large companies due to its potentially high licensing costs."
"We use the free version of the solution. There are enterprise licenses available. It cost approximately $5,000 annually. It is an expensive solution and there are additional features that cost more money."
"Its price should be lower. The key thing that we see is that talking about ROI is an important element at the time of purchase. Cost becomes a factor in every discussion. Justifying the ROI for these kinds of workflows is always a challenge, and the only way to counter the challenge is by addressing the pricing."
"In order to have designers, and, if you want to collaborate, you have to buy a server. If the designer is $5,000, and if you want a server, you have to pay $80,000."
"I don't know much about the licensing, but there are some additional costs for certain features."
"There are some implementation services and internal effort costs at the beginning but there is nothing else."
