Overall Satisfaction with Alteryx

Alteryx is the unique data analytics tool I have ever used or tested. Learning the tool is very quick, you can start to analyze as soon as you start to use. Maybe you cannot be a super analyst, but you start to analyze in 2 hours or less. You can save tremendous of time, automate many processes. It's cross platform and supports tens of databases which you can bring all together and start analyzing. Spatial Analysis, direct support R and Python, Machine Learning, Intelligence Suite and much more in only one product. I use it more than 4 years and I cannot live without Alteryx. If you're in the cloud, it is already supported. Thank you Alteryx and its developers who contributed to my work that much.

Definitely yes. Nobody is perfect, but Alteryx does much better. Reported bugs should fixed quickly. Depending on your hardware, I can say the workflows runs smooth and fast. You don't need very high and fancy computer, but you should be reasonable. Working with data is not easy, and all it depends the complexity of the analysis. However, I'm confident and happy with the results and its accuracy.
My job doesn't require to use these capabilities that much. I'm not a developer and I can't write codes (R or Python) at the moment. However with Alteryx Intelligence Suite and or predictive tools help me analyze data science type analysis.
IMHO KNIME is not user friendly as much as Alteryx. Learning curve is long. Regardless is Open Source, the GUI is awful. To do same job in Alteryx you need to add many components and the configuration is very complex. Although the application is free, the server side is not.
I tried Tableau Prep and as soon as I started to use, I didn't like it. It works only for small data and basic data analytics capability. Even not correct to compare with Alteryx. It is even not Orange and Apple.

Definitely it is Excel replacer. No need third party SQL GUI tools, even it supports multi platforms at the same time. You can make automations, schedule to work hourly, daily, weekly etc...

Using Alteryx

I can't say for other departments, but I know it's used for spatial analysis, sales and marketing, automation and governance.
I cannot provide any number. We are a large organization, and we have many Alteryx professionals.
  • Automation
  • Governance
  • Data Transformation
  • Analyzing the data
  • To meet the demand of executives requests shorter time period
  • Simplified complex analysis, no need to write a code, much faster
  • Make some analysis possible which it was impossible to analyze
  • GenAI (not now, maybe future)
  • Cloud (not now, maybe future)
Easy to use, ROI is short

Evaluating Alteryx and Competitors

  • Scalability
  • Integration with Other Systems
  • Ease of Use
No way. I don't even think about any other product rather than Alteryx.

Alteryx Implementation

I transformed repetitive works into the multiple workflows which saved a lot of time.
  • Implemented in-house
Change management was a minor issue with the implementation
  • Data transform
