We performed a comparison between Alteryx and Tableau based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Predictive Analytics solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The feature that I have found most valuable for Alteryx is its geo-referencing feature, it is very good. I use it a lot, especially for supply chain."
"I like that I can merge data from different sources into one place."
"Technical support is very helpful."
"The tools are built-in. You just plug and play, drag and drop, once you understand how to use the tools, it is easy."
"It's super easy to learn how to use it — the learning curve is very small."
"Its initial setup is easy."
"The modeling features are very good."
"It has everything that one needs. Whatever you want to do with the data can be done with Alteryx."
"It is an excellent tool for data capture, processing, and visualization."
"It's intuitive and highly mature"
"The UI part is the best. The end-users can easily get started with Tableau Desktop or Tableau Online because of its user-friendliness."
"The most valuable feature is that we can integrate with our own database, and it will displays the KPIs. This is highly required from the business side."
"Tableau has comprehensive, insightful charts, which allow you to build stunning dashboards and enrich your support decision-making."
"The best part about Tableau is the visualization."
"Tableau has improved my organization in a variety of ways, one of its uses being that of data analysis. A feature I have found most valuable is the ease of use and straightforwardness, in addition to the flexibility of Tableau."
"A valuable feature of Tableau is that it is a useful tool for small setups. I shuffle between Tableau and MicroStrategy, so I use Tableau for personal purposes more than enterprise. I like the light version of Tableau for personal usage and doing some use cases on my own. When it comes to something small, I use Tableau for setups, rather than any other tool."
"Alteryx's predictive data models are pretty average and can be improved."
"It would be nice if they can provide Alteryx with more options for In-DB connectivity. That functionality is there, but it doesn't include all software we are connecting."
"Configuration is very low."
"There are a few hiccups with specific data sets and languages or formats that the data comes in. That may be a minor problem, but we can work through it. We had some issues looking at XML format in added data, but it wasn't significant."
"Alteryx can improve the model management and deployment processing of large workloads."
"It would be great to create the final users' visualization within Alteryx."
"The solution just lacks in terms of data visualization. That is why we use Tableau and Qlik in our organization. They help to pick up the slack. If data visualization was added, Alteryx would be a very good tool, and much more complete."
"A feature which allows the user to be able to click on an output (in a file browser) and see the creation of the module would be fantastic."
"The setup was easy but we are having some problems with the configuration that is taking a long time. We have done some initial tests and some of the delays could be from bandwidth issues. However, the whole installation process should be simplified."
"The product needs to allow for better ways to drill down more effectively on the information at hand."
"When I've done presentations in the past, I've had issues with uploading the cartography."
"When it comes to large datasets, the data should be extracted faster."
"I have noticed that Tableau is not very compatible with ClickHouse. There's no direct connection to ClickHouse; you have to set up an ODBC connection."
"The Hyper Extract functionality is not as strong as that provided by Microsoft SQL."
"I would like Tableau Prep to be integrated with Tableau Desktop. I would also like more customizations for tables."
"The forecasting feature in Tableau in my view is too limited because it must have dates but I should be able to predict the outcome of an event without having a date as part of the input."
