Alteryx Reviews & Product Details

The speed of solving, the speed of connecting with various data files. We can simply connect a zip folder and then a excel within the file without unzipping the folder. It works so smooth and way faster then MS Excel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In earlier version, there was no option to connect with dbs file. But now this has been included in current version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Alteryx helps me to prepare and clean large amounts of data since I often get large data files from our clients. It is an amazing tool to handle large size of data which is would be too much to handle for excel. Additionally, it has a nice and intuitive visualization so it is very easy to understand how to use the different available tools within Alteryx. You will find a lot of help for your issues questions in forums on the internet. Further, it integrates well with tableau, PowerPoint and Excel and data is ready for further processing in Tableau. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Using Alteryx is not that common among our client base so that clients often don't know Alteryx. Thus, we basically cannot share our analysis from Alteryx with them. Also, most of my colleagues don't know Alteryx so that it is also difficult to use within my team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ease of use and the ability to bridge the gap between novice data users, coders, and data scientists. Efficiency and repeatability--fast processing and the ability for others (or yourself in the future) to track a workflow step-by-step for cohesive understanding and QA/QC. The Alteryx Community is extremely active and supportive--I've learned so much from other users as well as via the great training materials that Alteryx provides. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Price--licenses are expensive compared to free coding languages & IDEs like R/RStudio. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

UI component is very well designed ensuring that the analysis is maintained as a flow chart. This makes it easy to understand and convenient to build/edit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Essentially every minor data wrangling step becomes a new icon on the flow, sometimes leading to overly complex flows. E.g. if you have multiple data columns that need format conversions, this cannot happen in one step and has to happen as different steps.

You also cannot selectively run parts of the flow and unless some step in the flow is cached, the whole flow runs from start every time- making it essential that the flow is designed on a sample of data and not the whole data to reduce development time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Alteryx makes combining large sets of data a breeze and simplifies loading them into visualization tools like PowerBI and Tableau. The drag and drop features are nice and make creating workflows relatively quick and easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Although the drag and drop design options are nice, the interface is slow and clunky and would be upgraded if the program had more automation options. The users in my organization are relatively data savy and Alteryx can be overwhelming for those who aren't. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are many opportunities to easily set up a smart model for calculations of probabilities. It's like drag and drop with changing some settings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's hard to handle, something confusing labeling and results can vary between the updates. No downgrading if you use some specific tools inside Alteryx. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Drag and drop ability to do Advanced Analytics. Easy blending and data prep for dashboard apps. Makes dashboard development faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The server need a major upgrade. Many aspects of the server are dated. The desktop environment needs to be a web client. Installing a data centric application on peoples desktops is problematic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The code-free code-friendly concept and speed of processing are unique. Super intuitive to use and easy to master. No code needed, but if you are a coder, Alteryx offers R, Python & Spark coding tools.

I did not find a data source that I could not connect to yet (besides MDX ones).

In/out, preparation, blending, parsing, and transformation tools are the fundamental ones to start analysis.

Spatial operations and analytics are super powerful for analysis which requires these types of models/operations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Even when it already includes some AI/ML models, this area could be improved.

Other area which could be improved is the visualizations. It would be great to create the final users' visualization within Alteryx.

Finally, the UI does not reflect the great product Alteryx is. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease of use, automating processes, self service analytics, ability to become a Citizen Data Scientist, in built solutions & community support are just some of the key benefits of the platform.

I have been using this for 3 years now & it has impacted my life in a big way. I have saved so much time from monotonous tasks, created new innovative solutions & shared them with teams. Thanks to Alteryx, I love my job even more. With the extra time on my hands, I am able to learn new things, help others or just relax. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Literally nothing. It connects to almost every data source & from there you have all the freedom to do your magic. If I have to pick one thing, I would say it would be better if the platform had more Visual capabilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the ease of it and how simple it makes it to manipulate data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am don’t like the documentation there is for Alteryx. There is very little if any. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to go from data acquisition to data insights in a fraction of the time it used to take. Not only is there enough power for the most technical of people, but someone with little technical prowess can jump in and get things done in a relatively short amount of time....its that good! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Originally, I was put off by the cost per seat (it is hard to justify), but when you do a real ROI against that cost -- you are actually coming out ahead. People are now doing more value-added work as opposed to copying/pasting data into a dataset. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Alteryx is the most powerful data migration platform and easy to collaborate through this Data Mapping solution.

Easy data extraction product and effective strategic planning product which comes with free trial version for new users.

The high volume data processing capability its wonderful, and the access control functionality are quite responsive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Alteryx usage learning was easy and the tool function are well placed for easy understanding of their functions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The connections can be created with ease and abundance of functions make it very flexible to use. The configuration pane accepts standard logical expressions and helps the user to get familiar pretty easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Alteryx doesn't allow us to run the workflow with the excel sheets open behind. Probably this could be worked upon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Automation of all data analytics regular reporting

Ability to solve any data challenge in no time

Easy to understand workflows

No need to document the reporting process once the workflow is built Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The cost of each license and add-ons is relatively high

building visualization is a bit challenging Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Standardised interface for every user

4 new feature upgrades per year

You can solve every real world data issue

It's so much fun showing people their own unvarnished data ! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No free, limited, version - would convince more people.

Sounds too good to be true at the price - but it's not ! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Designer is easy to use, the drag and drop functionality helps non-developers to quickly replicate manual processes with an automated solution. The gallery has an easy interface for scheduling automated workflows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The per-core costs are pretty high if you need to scale out in a large organization. It also isn't very cloud friendly at the moment and is really designed for on-premise computing. This is the most important drawback aside from cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease of designing the workflows is the biggest factor! I really like how all the actions have been implemented in the tool. I can easily find a specific actions to cater the process you need to do. Data filtering and cleansing is really helpful very simple but really helpful. Also the API integration is really great! nowadays API have been used most often in different systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The error handling is a bit challenging in alteryx, if you can design an action to easily terminate the workflow if there is an error encounter or if a condition is met it would be great for unattended automation applications.I dislike that you needed to create another macro just to have a decision tree between 2 outcomes, if we can have a decision box that will check a condition and automatically enable / disable a container without needing to create a workflow, it would be great! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like Alteryx for its user community. Often today we are handed products and it is assumed that the users will learn how to best utilize the specific product. Alteryx comes with the Alteryx community which provides the best way to learn to utilize Alteryx to its highest standards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing I have to say. I just wish I could download Alteryx on my personal computer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

user interface. Drag and drop tools. Tableau integration. Multiple data source connections. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

You need to execute the workflow every time to see the changes you made Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Alteryx it's very user friendly and have an amazing performance processing data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't have nothing to complain about Alteryx. It's very simple to build workflows and learn about it. Alteryx helped me to develop a data literacy and daily supports my work dealing with data bases from multiple sources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like it because it helps me to have optimal processing and a combination of excellent data. It is also highly capable of providing integrated analysis in each data that has been requested. On the other hand, I can also generate accurate and very objective reports on each pattern analyzed. It really makes it easy for me to have multiple linked files thanks to the integration with Excel. I would also like to point out that data connectivity for SQL is very important and easy to do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would like there to be greater functionalities to make the platform more specific in the processes. I also want to say that it would be positive to have a better entry and elimination of links between operations. Something that I could see is that it contains limited API connections. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Alteryx platform has clear strengths in addressing the broad range of business users. With the low-code approach, business users can quickly achieve promising results. Furthermore, the platform offers innumerable possibilities for automating and stabilizing processes through the integration of APIs and third-party applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Alteryx platform currently has one major barrier to entry: the price. A version with limited functionality and a reduced price would make it easier for some users to get started and reduce internal justification via complex user cases. In most cases, this would probably lead to a license upgrade with increasing requirements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that fact that Alteryx is capable of handling much larger amounts of data. The interface is also extremely smooth. It's visual and interactive nature massively reduces the amount of coding required. I also love the Alteryx community. It's always very prompt and helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the resolution of the workflow gets lowered. I haven't been able to find out any reason for this but it's not any hardware issue. Although, this does not possess any set back to my work, a good resolution is always appreciated Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Simple drag and drop interface, quick learning curve, code-free environment, and easy to share and collaborate Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The current price structure makes alteryx hard to justify for small teams with tight budgets Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
