Overall Satisfaction with Alteryx

Alteryx has allowed us the self-service reporting capabilities that we longed for. With many disparate data sources, reporting was a chore and our analytics teams were bogged down with ad hoc reports. Alteryx allowed us the ability to create self-service tools through the analytic apps deployed to the gallery that could be leveraged by the business to pull their own ad hoc reports. This freed up analysts to do more complex reporting and analysis.

Pros

  • Pulling data from multiple disparate data sources.
  • Allows users to see the data at every step of the workflow to be able to cleanse, analyze, and optimize the data.
  • Provides an analytics platform that is easy for users of all levels to thrive in whether they are just starting out in their analytics journey or they have a master's degree in Data Science.

Cons

  • The Gallery search capabilities are not as easy as they should be.
  • I wish you could see the schedules for a workflow in the gallery when you click on the workflow itself, instead of having to search through the schedules as a user.
  • The filters on the Schedules section in the Gallery don't work as they should.
  • 13 Alteryx Analytic Apps have replaced 8904 ad hoc queries since 2018 with a resource savings of $1-1.6 M and saving ~27k hours of customer wait time.
  • 1 Analytic App used to automate a manual process was run 6,650 in one year with a $1.5M in resource savings and 39k hours of analyst time savings.
Alteryx is easier to use and has a lot more advanced analytics capabilities.

Between the Alteryx Community and the Alteryx support, there has never been a question that we have had that we haven't been able to get answered.
Alteryx is a well-rounded platform suitable for all functions from ETL, data cleansing and wrangling, analyzing, reporting, and even data science functions. Alteryx used to fall behind in cloud capabilities, but in the last year it has stepped up its game in that area as well with a Snowflake partnership. I'm not sure there are many scenarios where Alteryx should not be used!
