We performed a comparison between Alteryx and Microsoft Power BI based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Predictive Analytics solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Good data transformation."
"The most valuable feature of Alteryx is the intelligence suite."
"The tools are built-in. You just plug and play, drag and drop, once you understand how to use the tools, it is easy."
"The filtering is fast, and it provides a search tool that is great."
"The philosophy of the citizen data scientist is the key piece, which means the no-code analytics capability. This is the feature that attracted us the most."
"It's super easy to learn how to use it — the learning curve is very small."
"The drag-and-drop functionality, the ready-to-use analytics module, and the ability to track my data pipelines visually are the solution's most valuable features."
"The design portion of this tool is easy to use without code, which his something that something we can appreciate."
"The most valuable features in Microsoft BI are the analysis using the feature drag and drop function. It's very easy to load and use different data sources."
"Key features are its dashboard functionality and ease of integration with various data sources."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten."
"As it was my first time using Power BI, I can say that it was fairly easy to learn, especially if you already know BI-type tools."
"The stability is great and continues to get better and better."
"The solution's initial setup isn't too complicated."
"There are some great automation elements in the product."
"The solution is easy to use and charts can be built quickly with the tools."
"The only weakness I would say is on the visualization side of having that dynamic incapability."
"Alteryx could be improved in the area of analytics and central governance."
"The solution is improving continuously. They have, for example, just added automatic insights. If they continue to improve on their overall service offering, that would be ideal."
"The gallery could improve in Alteryx. Additionally, if there was a Conditional Join feature it would be beneficial. Since I do not have this feature I have to use Python scripts."
"I think they should really work on integrating or have a capacity to integrate some algorithmic code. I think that's one of the most important things they need to be doing."
"Lacks an open source edition which would be helpful."
"It seems to me that it is not always user friendly."
"Its most valuable feature lies in its functionality."
"There is no specific area that I have a problem with. It's just that, with whatever feature you come across, every visual has its own formatting and behavior. What you get in one visual for a feature, you don't seem to get in another."
"Needs single sign-on."
"I believe the price should be degressive, and we should have a lower, or better unit price if we have more users."
"I would like to see more visualization options."
"I would like to see integration with Excel."
"It is not yet ready for enterprises. For a big enterprise data model, it is not so stable, and it also doesn't scale so well."
"If you have to pull multiple data sources performance is somewhat lacking."
"I think because I'm moving more into RPA, I'd definitely like to see integration across the RPA, Power BI, or Tableau platforms, because that integration could then make automation and mundane reporting much faster."
