We performed a comparison between Alteryx and Anaplan 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."It's super easy to learn how to use it — the learning curve is very small."
"The modeling features are very good."
"The data transformation feature is the most valuable. The ability to ingest data, visualize data, and transform that data is useful."
"The most valuable feature of Alteryx is the intelligence suite."
"The analytics are easy."
"The GUI is simple and it integrates with Python."
"Automation is the most valuable aspect for us. The ability to wrap business logic around the data is very helpful."
"The tools are built-in. You just plug and play, drag and drop, once you understand how to use the tools, it is easy."
"It's highly flexible. If you've got a complex environment with complex calculations, you can build that out. So that's a really good positive."
"I believe Anaplan is a new cloud tool, and from time to time, there's a lot of improvement that the Anaplan company deploys with the system. So, with that improvement, we need to really adapt and know the new system trends."
"It's simple to use with a lot of functions."
"This product has a very good modeling feature, and its graphical representation of visualizations has also been valuable."
"Anaplan is a three-dimensional cloud platform that is good for analyzing data, visualization, integration, terrific for visibility."
"Anaplan's most valuable features are that it's a no-coding platform, everything can be scaled to your other functions, and it's easy to learn and use (especially because Anaplan provides excellent interactive training)."
"The solution scales well."
"Where we're seeing the opportunity in the market is at the Fortune 100 companies that have far more complex modeling type scenarios where you need to be able to have a lot of people collaborating together, and you need a lot of information all at everyone's fingertips. This is where you see the big advantage of a solution like Anaplan."
"Alteryx's predictive data models are pretty average and can be improved."
"When a process completes there is a notification, but the notification does not include the process's name."
"Alteryx could be improved in the area of analytics and central governance."
"There have been some issues with licensing, particularly with the increased prices. This has led some companies, including ours, to consider reducing the number of licenses or potentially discontinuing their use of Alteryx."
"The only area where the product lags is documentation and videos on the analytical app and the batch macro."
"The solution just lacks in terms of data visualization. That is why we use Tableau and Qlik in our organization. They help to pick up the slack. If data visualization was added, Alteryx would be a very good tool, and much more complete."
"It should have Linux support. It currently supports only Windows. It does not support any other platform. Its price should also be lower. Their US partner management program is actually unresponsive. One of the reasons why we don't have a formalized partnership plan with them is because their partner management team is atrociously unresponsive. This is something that they need to change."
"There could be a bit of improvement related to performance. Sometimes it demands a lot of resources for running it, like memory and search."
"The visualization tools in the product are limited in comparison to other reporting tools."
"One area of improvement is conditional formatting. It's not very practical, and you need to specify additional formatting."
"The price of the solution can improve."
"It would be nice if the solution offered better extensions."
"When there is a lot of data, it sometimes takes long to load."
"Anaplan should come up with flexible options to connect to a data warehouse rather than an Anaplan hub."
"Automation needs to be built into this solution."
"The solution could improve by better dashboards and while entering the form loss and project implementation the ability to use graphical shapes more effectively."
