Overall Satisfaction with Alteryx

Started out using alteryx for complex labor modeling - basically bringing in data from lots of sources and blending how we needed. Now I use it for almost everything because its easier than excel and python. With low to no code you can have the same data outputs as python (with pandas dataframes) and/or R... or you can add your own code in!
  • data preperation
  • low code
  • data modeling
  • data blending
  • running an operation by "n" times without a batch macro
  • integration with sql
  • improved cost savings
  • time savings on modelling
  • team upskilling
I have gotten to the point where I use it daily... even for fairly simple tasks. Its easier than the whole vlookup then pivot out that I do in excel.
I've used the machine learning features. Easy startup process, and definitely nice to be able to blend and prep the data before hand. Would be nice to have more ML models to compete with autogluon... but SO much simpler to use.
I still use SQL, Python, and Excel when I have to - but alteryx has largely replaced all three of these. Every operation I need to do in any of these I can do in alteryx and see what I'm doing each step of the way - so problem solving is also easier.

Do you think Alteryx delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Alteryx's feature set?

Yes

Did Alteryx live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Alteryx go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Alteryx again?

Yes

Data modeling, prep, and filtering all in one with low to no code. I use it as a replacement for excel and/or python and can knock out a forecast model in no time or take several excel tables and make useful reports and data out of it all while basically seeing my own thought process.
