Overall Satisfaction with Alteryx Analytics
Alteryx Analytics was being used by a team I was working with that wanted to check different Analytical software available in the market to see which one would be the best suited for our purpose. We wanted to be able to repeatedly analyze the same kind of data from different sources. Alteryx made our life easier by making it really easy to blend data from different kinds of sources.
Pros
- It's great at blending data from different sources. I loved how easy it was.
- There is a huge variety of visualizations that are available as well.
- A lot of drag and drop options available for different workflows.
- Open APIs available are a great help.
Cons
- I would love better training videos on their website.
- Trying to automate the workflow is at an additional cost.
- If we happen to skip a few versions of Alteryx then it gets difficult to get accustomed to newer versions.
- RapidMiner
I had used RapidMiner before and Alteryx is way ahead of it in every aspect. I also have used IBM Watson to some extent and preferred Alteryx because of its blending capabilities, ease of use for everyone on the team and the ability to easily use R with it (as R was the second most popular language we used). I have heard IBM SPSS has some features better than Alteryx but haven't had a chance to use it as yet. At this point though we do not think we are moving anywhere away from Alteryx.
