Data management and automation in the cloud.
What do you like best about the product?
The interface is very easy to use, offering the best options for calculation that I have been able to test in the cloud. The option to combine two spreadsheets is my favorite, as I can put them together in a single file. The selection tool is quite useful for organization; I can rename, reorder, modify data types, and add column descriptions. The community is another of the strengths of this service; they are always available to help and give tips on how to use the tools correctly, especially to those who are just starting out. The academics with interactive lessons are a marvel; I have learned a lot.
What do you dislike about the product?
They offer two types of plans: one completely in the cloud and another for desktops. The price difference is not much; however, for some companies, the cost can be striking. For integration tools, I have done very well with AWS, but it leaves much to be desired with respect to Python. Better tools are displayed, especially in the version offered in the cloud.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mainly for data visualization, data preparation, and automation, we totally eliminated manual and repetitive tasks from our services, saving a lot of time in providing better data management support and always verifying the integrity and quality of everything we offer. We have achieved more comprehensive data cleansing, which has really helped us a lot using Alteryx, allowing us to make better decisions that have allowed us to grow and offer better technology services.

UI- RPA user experience
What do you like best about the product?
Preforming data preparations and cleansing data from the source applications and using it the same for visualization and preparation dashboards by integrating with other visualization tools
What do you dislike about the product?
Identifying and using nodes in alteryx is ease to use but sometimes memory errors occurs when running some huge raw data in alteryx workflows. These sometimes is problematic as it takes a he'll lot of time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using Alteryx manual repetitive tasks are automated and saved lot of time which enables users to manage time more productive and more efficiently. Also, it enables user to run the workforce by single click of button.
Explore Galore
What do you like best about the product?
There are so many ways to do the same thing. You can explore and use your thought process to create a workflow for how you think. On the other hand, another person who thinks differently from you can make the same output with a different workflow. We're all different and think differently; this is what Alteryx means to me and what I like most about it. Changing a workflow for updates, additions, or exclusions is very easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
A bit of a learning curve is the only downside. The excellent point is once you understand how it works, the possibilities are endless. I'd like to see improvements in the hands-on training provided by Alteryx and not consulting companies.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Cutting business processes in half or excluding some to help accounting close run faster. The team is more productive and has more time to focus on essential functions.
Living with Alteryx
What do you like best about the product?
Alteryx is super user-friendly, but its most significant benefit has been the community.
What do you dislike about the product?
The server functionality was initially unreliable, and outages were frequent. Updates over the years have improved performance and reliability substantially.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Alteryx makes blending data from multiple sources a breeze. I have more time and I am more productive as a result.
Great for Data, Bad for Formatting
What do you like best about the product?
This is easier to show someone how to use than Excel Macros. It also makes it easier to hand over to someone and allow them to make edits. Normally if I write a Macro I am the only one who can edit and if I leave the company or a group it will no longer be editable. With Alteryx I think it is easier for end-users to learn.
What do you dislike about the product?
Alteryx is great at data manipulation however when it comes to formatting it makes things much more difficult. There aren't built in functions that handle formatting well, whether it is changing font, highlighting, shading, font size, etc. I have learned in my career that presentation is extremely important. Being able to auto format data easier would make this tool extremely useful for me. It is the one thing that is making me think of sticking with writing VBA Macros and not using Alteryx as it is more versatile for me.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Automation.
Advanced user of 6+ years with 2 certifications under my belt
What do you like best about the product?
The interface is easy to use, navigate through and I love it's search capabilities. It simplifies the learning curve a bit. Compared to other products I think Alteryx shines in these capabilities.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it can be a memory hog. Not sure how to fix that, maybe some sort of optimization under the hood. It also needs to ship with the correct Access database Distribution Engine and Oracle InstantClient.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's taking mundane, manual tasks with data, simplifying and automating it. I put it out on the server and I no longer have to perform the work for my partners. They can do it themselves.
Mind-blowing ETL tool
What do you like best about the product?
I am using Alteryx form last 6 years. This has made my office work smooth and easy. I have also done Automation through MS excels but it was really frustrating.
What do you dislike about the product?
Need visualisation function as well, add more tool to enhance look of the output. Also workflow processing on tool can be enhanced. Recently Alteryx increased the cost as well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are moving all our Excel and MS based automations on Alteryx. Alteryx workflow can be scheduled on server and developed workflow can be utilised by any team members whithout having Alteryx licence
Extremely useful tool for multi server data aggregation
What do you like best about the product?
What I like about Alteryx is that it uses a node based system kind of like KNIMe but more sophisticated. It also allows for us to utilize our own code which a huge benefit for the work that has already been carried out. The most useful aspect for us is the ability to aggregate data from different sources. Orcale, Teradata, SQL Server, large datasets are able to be generated easily and quickly. Sometimes when trying to create datasets when SQL Assistant is lagging or not running at peak performance, I switch to Alteryx and am able to generate my datasets. It is a really good tool for varying levels of data analysis experience.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is not a much to dislike about Alteryx. Perhaps those individuals with very basic and beginner levels of data analysis and data literacy make require more training to use it effectively. Some of the syntax in formulas are different from other coding languages and require some troubleshooting.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The biggest problem that Alteryx solves for me is the ability to aggregate data from different servers and sources into one data set with all required fields for necessary data exploration and analysis.
Alteryx is Powerful
What do you like best about the product?
The drag and drop user interface is great. It makes it really easy to use and the search function works great. You can even pull up tutorials on the application so that you can research a tool before using it
What do you dislike about the product?
The PCXML is confusing. You cant write regular HTML and it will convert it to a weird format so it doesnt display properly. I wish you could also connect to SharePoint Libraries
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Alteryx has helped us solve issues with reporting. We use alteryx to automate reporting for our group and saves us so much time. We have been using alteryx for about a year
Alteryx
What do you like best about the product?
Alteryx simplifies and improves a lot of end to end processes for the team I work on. It is easy to use and there's a lot of things within the community to help
What do you dislike about the product?
A couple of features which are limited. The email tool is a great feature but to limit it to 10MB is a BIG downside for many companies who want to attach documents that are sizeable.
Secondly, the server scheduling is limited in the fact it doesn't allow business days to be scheduled and is limited to calendar days. Again a massive drawback for companies

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Straight through processing all contained within Alteryx. The use of a hybrid model where it is part code and part Alteryx works well in some cases
