Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"All of the data science features in terms of unioning and joining data together are valuable.""I like the solution's velocity, the speed with which it processes data, and its ease of use.""The tools are built-in. You just plug and play, drag and drop, once you understand how to use the tools, it is easy.""The most valuable feature of this solution is data preparation.""The solution has excellent drag and drop functionality. There's no need for coding.""The drag-and-drop features are useful for data scientists who do not like to code because it is already in the system.""The connectors are a very good feature.""The analytics are easy​."

Cons
"It's a technical product and those that don't have proper training will have to deal with a steep learning curve.""There is currently no cloud solution and this would be valuable for many clients.""There's a big jump in terms of pricing between license tiers. I'm not sure I understand why the price jumps are so high.""The only weakness I would say is on the visualization side of having that dynamic incapability.""If there is any way to make the learning curve less steep, that would be ideal.""Alteryx could be improved in the area of analytics and central governance.""The solution could improve in the visualization.""Even when it already includes some AI models, this area could be improved."

More Alteryx Cons →

"More/newer visualisation components need to be added.""They should offer the capability to directly access data from SaaS environments, as it would simplify the migration process, and while it may seem like a minor enhancement, it would be beneficial to our clients.""QlikView certainly lacks in its ability to share visualizations or create visualizations easily.""Better source data connectors.""I would want them to have more options as a user. It would be nice for them to create their own dashboards and add fields.""The user interface is old.""They could improve the speed.""There is a challenge on the frontend when it comes to browsing data through QlikView, as it isn't entirely compatible with other platforms we use."
