I haven't actually used Alteryx yet, but I'm about to try it out after years of doing everything in Excel and pulling reports from SAP/NetSuite by hand. Right now, my biggest hope is that it'll save me from redoing the same copy paste and fix-formulas routine every single month. I'll update this once I've actually played around with it and know if it lives up to that.

The advanced software is quick to automate all datasheets from Excel with little to no effort and makes allows me to avoid repetitive tasks as its all done with one click

he drag-and-drop workflow is what stands out most to me. I can build data prep, blending, and transformation as a visual sequence of tools without writing code, which makes complex ETL approachable and fast. Joining and cleaning data from multiple sources — Excel, databases, APIs — that used to take hours of manual work in Excel now runs in a repeatable workflow I can rerun with a single click. The built-in analytics (including spatial) and the option to drop in Python/R when needed give it a lot of range, and the learning curve is gentle enough that non-developers on my team became productive quickly.
