We performed a comparison between Alteryx and Tableau 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."I like the solution's velocity, the speed with which it processes data, and its ease of use."
"It is efficient in optimizing our ability to get information."
"The scheduling within the solution is excellent."
"The support is very good."
"Alteryx has made us more agile and increased the speed and effectiveness of decision making."
"The ease-of-use allows non-technical business users to directly create their own solutions without the use of additional development resources."
"Predictive models, which are easy to use, and help a lot with fast design and deployment."
"My primary focus is creating numerous data pulls, and Alteryx Server handles the automation well."
"The use of a storyboard helps the flow of the data visualisation."
"It's the ease of use. It is also a self-service tool so it decreases the burden on having centralized IT-type teams or developers."
"I consider Tableau to be the best analytical tool available. It's really handy to use and can be used by non-technical people."
"Gradual scalability from simple to complex situations"
"All features are valuable. It is very user-friendly, and it is mostly drag-and-drop. If we have the dataset available, then we can develop any dashboard very quickly."
"There is a lot of APIs available, which means that Tableau can be customized to a large extent."
"The product has the best features for analytical views and filters."
"The feature that is currently most valuable is the import feature where I can link to an Excel data source. I'm not using it with any other data source, such as SQL Server. I directly link it to an Excel sheet, and if I change anything in that Excel sheet, the changed data immediately gets reflected in the virtualization. This is something that is very convenient for me as of now."
"The formula we currently use in Alteryx can be automated."
"What they're struggling with is it's not as mature as Tableau in the user management area. It was tougher to manage the server part of it right away, especially since the user base has grown."
"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."
"Alteryx can improve in data science. They have to have more features and components in the data science aspect because they claim to be a data science tool. However, in order to be more competitive, they have to improve on their data science propositions. Thre are other solutions on the market, such as other players in the market, Data2Go or DataIQ, and Alteryx needs to catch up."
"It would be great if Alteryx could take third party tools and incorporate them."
"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."
"I mostly used it for flat files, but I have many colleagues who reported that to tune a query, in case they want to directly connect to the database, there is no option to optimize the performance of the query, as we have in Informatica."
"Implementation requires a technical background."
"The data processing in Tableau is pathetic compared to Qlik."
"The integration with other program languages, like Python, needs to be better."
"An advanced type of visualization is a bit tricky to create. It has something called a Calculated field, and that sometimes gets a bit difficult to use when you want to create an advanced type of visualization."
"There are not enough language options. It needs to be offered in more than just English."
"I would like the solution to have certain features allowing the delivery of reports to the email."
"The only issue with the solution is with its prices at a regional level."
"I don't have the ability in Tableau to create a tooltip and see the picture of a piece of jewelry or watch that is a best seller."
