Find out what your peers are saying about Alteryx, RapidMiner, SAP and others in Predictive Analytics."Alteryx makes it easy for the end customer to see clean data in a structured form."
"The analytics are easy."
"All of the data science features in terms of unioning and joining data together are valuable."
"The solution has a very strong community that is involved in the product. It helps make the usage easier and helps us find answers to our questions."
"The Alteryx designer has been the most useful feature in the solution."
"The solution offers excellent predicting power. The accuracy and confidence have been great."
"The design portion of this tool is easy to use without code, which his something that something we can appreciate."
"It's super easy to learn how to use it — the learning curve is very small."
"A valuable feature of Amazon QuickSight is that it's a cloud-native service provided by AWS. As all platforms within my company run on AWS, that's the leverage of Amazon QuickSight. Amazon QuickSight is also easy to use, and I find the native connectors from AWS valuable as well."
"The product is easy to learn."
"It helped the managers to visualize the data activities."
"One of the most valuable features of Amazon QuickSight has been the speed at which visualizations can be created."
"Compared to other reporting tools, it is very effective but does require an understanding of certain concepts in QuickSight. This understanding is crucial for creating dimensions, changing metrics, and visualizing reports."
"Amazon QuickSight can provide insights from the available data. It supports various rule types. We get the options of machine learning and insights, which are not available in other intelligence tools. It is easier to use, more stable, and cheaper than other solutions."
"Easily able to connect with our other services and easy to manage."
"The most valuable feature of Amazon QuickSight is its connectivity with other Amazon services."
"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."
"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 event handling, such that the file system watcher, is in need of improvement."
"It seems to me that it is not always user friendly."
"Mastering Alteryx, a comprehensive solution, takes time. However, once you have gained proficiency with its layout and how to drag, drop, and connect components, it becomes remarkably easy, yet still thorough."
"Even when it already includes some AI models, this area could be improved."
"It would be great if Alteryx could take third party tools and incorporate them."
"Its most valuable feature lies in its functionality."
"There is room for improvement in terms of the number of visualizations and dashboards that are available."
"Amazon QuickSight's visualization could be improved."
"It is a simple tool with limited features. Its visualization set is very limited, and it also has limited functionality. An intelligence tool should not be only for creating reports. Currently, we have to do all computational and mathematical operations outside. We should be able to do such operations in an intelligence tool like this. As an intelligence tool, it should support dynamic refresh. QuickSight currently supports the refresh at a minimum of one hour, and it is not suitable for dynamic dashboards that require frequent refreshes."
"They could provide more options for graphics and other features."
"It should support integration with Python or R."
"An area for improvement in Amazon QuickSight is storage. Data cleanup also needs improvement because I'm experiencing errors when cleaning the data. Amazon QuickSight needs video tutorials showing its different functions and purposes."
"Compared to Power BI, I felt QuickSight lacks some features, like delayed drill-downs. Drill-downs were the main area where we found QuickSight lacking."
"Lacked connectivity with other third-party tools and data sources."
