We performed a comparison between Alteryx and MicroStrategy 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."Alteryx's connectivity is essential. We like the ability to connect the solution to multiple sources. It's easier than other data modeling and extraction solutions. It's built on a self-service concept, so it's easy for anyone to open the tool and directly import or export data from it."
"Alteryx makes it easy for the end customer to see clean data in a structured form."
"The solution offers excellent predicting power. The accuracy and confidence have been great."
"The most valuable feature of Alteryx is its unlimited handling capabilities."
"It's super easy to learn how to use it — the learning curve is very small."
"Alteryx has a good UI. We use it frequently in our projects. The tool comes with drag-and-drop features and is easy to understand for business needs. One situation where Alteryx's advanced analytics capabilities were particularly beneficial for us was during a forecasting project. Unlike Python, which requires coding, Alteryx simplifies the process significantly. With Alteryx, users can adjust parameters within the user interface without writing any code."
"Alteryx is a low-code platform, and that's the biggest reason why we chose it."
"It saves time on a lot projects. "
"The ability to create aesthetically pleasing information by providing dashboards."
"It drives us away from Excel. For what it is for, it is good. You can't run a business on Excel."
"On our mobile solution you can deploy up to 100,000 users. In our case, we're up to about 10,000 active users, and MicroStrategy's server technology behind the scenes, the Intelligence Server and the Mobile Servers, are very robust and they can handle the workload."
"The scalability is great. It was one of the selling points for us on MicroStrategy."
"Speed for high level aggregation by using Intelligent Cubes."
"This solution has allowed us to become a top-class competitor among other consulting companies."
"The option to use various administrative tools, like Integrity Manager, is a valuable feature."
"It's user-friendly, also the MTDI cube is a very good approach, as it helps you to use the pre-format instead of using the standard objects from the schema of MicroStrategy."
"It is a little bit pricey."
"Configuration is very low."
"The scalability worries me a lot at the moment because the cost of the solution is high and it is not growing considerably. Unfortunately, we started during early COVID times and because of the economic downturn, all the cost cuttings, and everything, it is not growing as expected."
"Alteryx is just as complicated as coding, in my opinion."
"It seems to me that it is not always user friendly."
"The solution could improve in the visualization."
"The interface could be improved."
"The learning curve is long, and there is lack of e-learning; the tool is not user-friendly to a non-technical user."
"Enterprise Manager should be a little bit less quirky when you build out-of-the-box customization reports for it."
"Scalability is something which will need to be improved when it goes to a bigger audience."
"We've found the scalability to be very good. However, it depends on the environment. In general, it could be much better."
"Getting our data to work with the tool is where we are having issues."
"I think they're still lacking on customer service. I think historically, MicroStrategy's customer service was a lot better than it is today."
"There might be opportunities for reporting or data analysis, perhaps even in the realm of simulation."
"We haven't invested in the mobile platform. We want to invest, but the problem is the security. We are in the health domain, so we have PHI data."
"The online community page of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
