Useful ETL and Analytics at a Steep Price
What do you like best about the product?
Interface enables users to easily access and prepare data for analysis or other use. Lots of analytical modules/tools with deep sophistication for analysis and modeling. Extensive capabilities to get creative, design and build custom solutions. Customer service typically responsive and knowledgeable Readily manages repetitive data functions efficiently.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lacks detailed documentation making for a steep learning curve and inefficient use of time to complete basic functions at on-boarding. Poor charting (data visualization) and reporting features. In many cases it is quicker to use Excel to perform ad-hoc data tasks and analysis. Cost makes for a challenging ROI. An occasional software crash. Current version 11 appears more stable. Data product add-on falls short in value.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fisite uses alteryx to clean, organize, analyze and report on consumer survey data. Perform trade area analysis for retail clients. Analyze/model marketing data. Repetitive data preparation is more efficient.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Cost makes it most appropriate for the sophisticated, senior analysis. More functionality and tools than are typically required/needed at the cost. Start with a single license to train and ensure organizational ROI hurdles are met/attainable. We have experienced conflicts with the data in the data product add-on where data conflicts with third-party sources for auditing. alteryx explained these were timing/methodology issues. We use limited parts of the data plan that make it hard to justify the cost.

Great tool for data blending.
What do you like best about the product?
It has a user-friendly interface and a GUI interface, it´s quite powerfull and the on line training for starting is great.
What do you dislike about the product?
At the end, as any ETL or analytics tool the complexity is the requirements and in the data layer that you have to connect.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It´s good to automate datablending task and quick analysis for advanced users. It´s not a corporate ETL solution.
Great Simplification tool
What do you like best about the product?
GUI is great , easy to learn and adopt. No need to learn code language its very simple to learn. Self learning samples for each tool is one of the best self learn feature provided.
What do you dislike about the product?
nothing in specific as of now, its covers most almost what is require for data blending. Need to improve more on report wizard.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data blending , Analytics

Alteryx is good data blending tool, an alternate to excel i can say .Easy to learn and implement. Its save more manual processing time .
Best tool for data mining,consolidating & refining
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to develop the flow with all the data cleaning logic in flow and run the same module on regular reporting time.
What do you dislike about the product?
Directly connecting to fend visualization tool like Tableau
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data consolidating and building the final summarised, visualized dashboard for business team

it is easy to combine and enrich data. Repeatable workflows runs really fast..
What do you dislike about the product?
Reporting features to create charts and tables are limited
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Cleaning and enriching data for better decisions. Do more with out having to increase staff.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use the free trial to evaluate, the training is very good
Alteryx: Data Preparation and Blending Tool
What do you like best about the product?
Alteryx is a great data blending and data prep tool. It allows you to take data from different forms and very easily combine them into something that you can work with. This is all done through a workflow process with drag and drop tools. This makes it easy for the less technical people to transform their data without a steep learning curve. I also really like that there is a tool that turns all of the data blending that you have done into a tableau file that can be automatically imported into tableau and used there.
What do you dislike about the product?
While touted as having great analytic capabilities, I found that Alteryx did not stand up to competitors like Tableau. The analytics capabilities that Alterx does have are a bit clunky and do not present a final product in a great way.
It is definitely more of a data prep/blend tool than an analytics tool, which I thought was not represented in the best way in its advertising.
It is definitely more of a data prep/blend tool than an analytics tool, which I thought was not represented in the best way in its advertising.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have the need to access data that is in many different forms. From excel files to csv files, I have been having to manually add data to a master database file, all of this is very labor intensive. With Alteryx I can decide what data entries I need as well as delete duplicates, replace words and add columns, all automatically.
This tool saves me a lot of time, was easy to learn and reduces the redundancy of the work I do.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great data prep and blending tool, however it is not ideal to be used for analytic purposes. Although it integrates fantastically with Tableau.
Ateryx review
What do you like best about the product?
I like the different features alteryx offers right from creating workflows and creating extracts in tableau.
What do you dislike about the product?
The way workflows are corrupted which leads to no data in tableau extracts
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am creating Tableau dashboards based on the extracts I create in alteryx.
Relatively New User
What do you like best about the product?
The interface and overall flow and feel of the product is excellent. The ability to abstract processing and to modularize is a useful software development model made more efficient by the clean, modular approach of the software. This lets users leverage prior modules and workflows effectively and somewhat transparently. This is useful in helping new users to train up on the system, helping put the examples into the context of your organization quickly by reviewing workflows and documents created by a few solo "Top Gun" users.
What do you dislike about the product?
The product is quite expensive and would be more useful more broadly if it were less expensive per seat. This model makes it workable as a single seat,tool used by a "Top Gun", but difficult to provide to a more junior resource to become proficient. It is very complex, so it takes some time, even for a Top Gun to become expert. The product is self-evident in some ways, but has a great deal of power and complexity that must be discovered individually. Tutorials and learning modules are good, but could be more applicable to our industry and somewhat specialized use case. I would like to see even more tie-in with Salesforce, marketing analytics, demographics, etc.,
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Analytics tying into workflows, using for marketing analytics and setting up machine learning solutions. Rapid prototyping. It may be useful as an intermediate layer between the UI and machine learning, R models that we may be using, or tying into Azure Machine Learning, etc.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Explore the trial software, but it is very short-term.(14 days) If possible, see if you can meet with another customer or user that's been using it for some time (> 6 months) to see how it might fit into your organization. The license model makes it difficult to use broadly, but the ability to leverage prior development helps.
Great way to turn anyone with a bit of database experience into a data analyst.
What do you like best about the product?
Alteryx makes it easy to connect multiple kinds of data sources together. CRM data can be joined to spreadsheets, and then uploaded into a postgres database that backs up Tableau.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not so much a dislike, but it lacks server setup features in my opinion. In an analyst role, I'm still dependent upon IT to get me a box or AWS up and running.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Automation. I can build something once, then make it push button for data refreshes as often as I need. It's also modular, I can build components and recycle them in multiple different work flows.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you've ever been delayed on a project because you're waiting on your dysfunctional IT team to get it together or you know what needs to be done, but you're not sure you have the technical skills to do it, this is the product for you. I do wish the Alteryx server was less expensive. Between that and Tableau Online, you're looking at a large cash outlay every year.
Powerful ETL tool and easy Tableau Integration
What do you like best about the product?
The variety and depth of tools offered, as well as ease of use. Does not require any coding experience to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
Slight learning curve to understand all the tools and some of the Statistical R packages aren't always straightforward.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Processing vast amounts of data, combined with algorithms for multivariable scoring/ranking. Some of the benefits realized are actually being able to extract data and process it quickly. Easily integrates with SQL Server and Tableau for robust data visualization.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
For anyone who wants to take control of their data, the sky is the limit. Alteryx is a fantastic tool , but takes some getting used to.
