Find out what your peers are saying about Alteryx, SAP, RapidMiner and others in Predictive Analytics."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 saves time on a lot projects. "
"Alteryx effectively visualizes the flow of data and what happens at each stage. I also like that it's a no-code solution. I also like that you can troubleshoot certain parts of the workflow by putting them in a sandbox."
"Alteryx is so advanced. It's just drag and drop."
"It is a stable and scalable solution."
"The three data signs and data engineering are great features."
"Predictive models, which are easy to use, and help a lot with fast design and deployment."
"Good data transformation."
"I believe that the possibilities for exploring data and formulating visual results are quite good because it allows the business analyst to have different perspectives on the data."
"Quick deployment to dashboards and analytics features (using SAS Visual Statistics and Enterprise Guide). Easy to create a simple forecast and discover business insights using segmentation tools."
"What I really love about the software is that I have never struggled in implementing it for complex business requirements. It is good for highly sophisticated and specialized statistics in the areas that some people tend to call artificial intelligence. It is used for everything that involves visual presentation and analysis of highly sophisticated statistics for forecasting and other purposes."
"It integrates well with SAS, making it simple and quick for developers."
"I like SAS Visual Analytics for its ability to provide an initial understanding of data through exploration, even before deep analytics."
"It's a stable, reliable product."
"It's relatively simple to create basic dashboards and reports."
"We've found the product to be stable and reliable."
"The only weakness I would say is on the visualization side of having that dynamic incapability."
"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 formula we currently use in Alteryx can be automated."
"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."
"The price of the solution could improve by being lower."
"The interface could be improved."
"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 installation process can be a bit complex."
"The visualization should be better in SAS Visual Analytics. It is easy to use but when compared to other solutions it is lacking and the support is not very good."
"SAS Visual Analytics could improve by making it more accessible for users outside the organization."
"There is room for improvement in anti-money laundering prevention and operation monitoring, as well as operation monitoring surveillance."
"It is not as mature as competitors such as Tableau and QlikView."
"The charts and tables could use better sorting, primarily using other variables than the ones on the figure. If they could implement views like in the older version (previous to Viya), it would be very nice."
"The solution should improve its graphics."
"A bit more flexibility in the temperatization will be helpful."
