It should have better visualization capabilities. There are tools out there that have better visualization capabilities, which Alteryx is lacking currently."
"The solution can be made more affordable."
"Improvements are coming quarterly whereas previously it was on a monthly basis."
"The solution should include other scripting languages as well, such as Python."
