Alteryx at one year using
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to learn, find help, training and turning over workflows to colleagues. It connects to a lot of file types and databases. The learning curve is similar to Excel in that you can start with what you need at the moment and continue to increase your skills thru video, live training and the community.
What do you dislike about the product?
The next step to server is complex and could be improved by a local server development environment, but this is not a must have by any means.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am managing multiple file sources, blending, validating and controlling updates. This is a time saver and allows me to do more. Alteryx self documents and is easy to turn over to others to perform the processes which I develop.

Great for large datasets
What do you like best about the product?
Works perfectly for data that crashes excel
What do you dislike about the product?
Can be difficult to find tools in the item bar
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data scraping, cleaning, and wrangling
Data Analytics Tool Saving Me Hours
What do you like best about the product?
The non-coding-heavy interface of Alteryx makes it easy to use, even without a computer-science background. It has a very good GUI, and the tools are well-defined and easy to understand. Alteryx capably handles massive datasets, manipulates them with ease, and helps join disparate data to form more meaningful outputs that aid in decision processes.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are several things in Alteryx that could be made better. For example, if I want to prepend a date to an output Excel file, it would be nice to simply have a checkbox option on that output tool that says "prepend today's date to file". Currently, I have to use a formula tool that incorporates the text of the entire file path, a DateTimeNow function, as well as the rest of the file name as text, and then choose to "Replace Entire File Path" from X field to do the same thing that a simple checkbox could accomplish. I'm sure the backend coding isn't so simple, but given the massively complicated tools already built into Alteryx, I'm sure it is possible.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Alteryx to assemble, clean, and join multiple sources of supply chain data into a single database that can be analyzed against internal and external necessities. Instead of relying on multiple individuals to create, interpolate, and send me data, Alteryx allows me to connect to both source databases and off-line files, and has the tools to automate the cleaning and prep of those data. Furthermore, Alteryx has advanced transposition, summarization, and union/join tools that allow me to pull together all data related to our company's list of SKUs, allowing for a one-stop shop for analysis with the formula tools and other predictive analysis tools.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you currently use Informatica, Alteryx is a huge step forward, especially in its transparency of operations and ease of implementation of scheduled workflows and shared workflows.
Great tool to combine and manipulate big data from different sources
What do you like best about the product?
The fact that I can manipulative data sets from all sorts of sources. I can combine data from hadoop and teradata to output a single data set into excel.
What do you dislike about the product?
How slow the processing can be and the fact that i cant look into my browser box when the flow is running.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Whether our third party hires are completing their jobs on time. I am running reports on Alteryx to gather and complete their data. Benefits that I can collect all this data, output it in excel, and email it out all in a click of a button.
Alteryx data enrichment
What do you like best about the product?
It blends and merges data so easily and precisely. Also its all visual so don't need development skills.
What do you dislike about the product?
Its has very limited functionality in terms of what you can do.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We blend data we pulled from data sources in alteryx before visualizations on tableau
Incredibly powerful and I only use about 1% of its capabilities
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of joining multiple salesforce tables without having to know SQL
What do you dislike about the product?
The automated scheduler is an additional charge
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Alteryx to structure and populate data for all of my Tableau dashboards. I can now build out my own data sets without burdening my IT team with SQL requests. This has allowed me to build out data and analyze issues much quicker than in the past.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Plan to invest some time learning the basics of the tool. There is definitely a learning curve, but there are tons of benefits once you learn how to leverage Alteryx.
Big Cost and Big Possibilities
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to create a workflow that can be automated when it is finished. This is something that Tableau Prep can not let us do right now.
What do you dislike about the product?
The cost is the biggest minus really. Our company has a few licenses while we are trying it out, but the cost is discouraging unless we can create more with the limited people right now.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving how we do our daily tasks to be more automated and traceable. We want to see where a disconnect can begin and how we can go about fixing it for the future.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Do the research and already have project ideas that can be worked on immediately. Have an Altyerx staff person to help implement this.
Must have tool for ETL and data science
What do you like best about the product?
ETL capabilities, data modeling capabilities using multisource, there is no limit to how many different sources you can connect to, data visualizations are also much better, R integration for data science capabilities which allows users who do not have experience in R programming to drag and drop and see the power of R, the free certifications with a final professional certification exam and learning materials available online.
What do you dislike about the product?
Visualizations could be more better when compared to Tableau / power BI. They should have the property which allows other tools to access the transformed data into themselves to be used for visualization purposes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data cleansing from multiple sources, data transformation using different techniques, schema design usiing multiple sources, data modeling using multiple tables, ETL while cleansing data. Data science drag and drop features with R integration is easy to use, you may not know to code in R but you can still use the many awesome features of R via this tool
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for an easy to use tool for ETL, visualizations and data science with R even if you don't have any experience in programming, look no further, this is the right tool.
Awesome Software

Alteryx has the ability to do so much more computing than excel. I love that it supports numerous file types and can create all types of different outputs.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be a bit confusing to learn at first, however the help functions are excellent
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
