Find out in this report how the two Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It helps them to create customized workflows, transform data, perform calculations, and consolidate multiple data sources into a target database."
"Workflow automation, in general, is valuable."
"Alteryx Designer offers a drag-and-drop interface, making it highly user-friendly. Unlike Python and Apache Airflow, which require coding, Alteryx allows users to accomplish tasks without any programming knowledge. Its simplicity makes it accessible to anyone, even those without coding experience, and this ease of use is one of Alteryx's key advantages."
"When you open a raw Excel file, it can be hard to look at everything in detail. Alteryx makes it much easier to go through the data, summarize it, and use different tools for analysis."
"The functionality of drag and drop is the most valuable. It is a very user-friendly tool that can be understood easily. My teams also work with other solutions, such as Integration Services, and these solutions are very difficult for people who don't have technical knowledge."
"The product is intuitive and easy to use."
"The solution is user-friendly."
"The product offers very good analytics."
"It is easier to use than other technical open-source technologies."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"It's easy to understand, makes flows and is efficient."
"Their automation and workflows are very strong, and you can build the workflows very easily and quickly."
"It is very easy to use. It takes complex workloads away, and it provides very smooth integration. It has got a lot of out-of-the-box connectors. It has got a lot of out-of-the-box APIs, which makes it really easy to integrate with applications for different use cases, whether it is in finance, HR, or customer operations. It is by far our favorite integration product."
"Workato is low code, intuitive, and easy to use."
"The most valuable features are easy integration, quick tab to develop, quick tab to market, and interactive integration platform."
"Alteryx Designer's pricing and support could be improved."
"Alteryx needs to improve its web governance. The gallery you use to filter the data is something else that could use some work. For instance, if you have a report connected to a database and want to filter a specific user, you should be able to suggest a specific region or a particular year. I know that the Alteryx isn't designed for data governance, but that would be great to think about."
"The actual usage part of it needs to be explained more. It's too vague right now."
"Sometimes, while getting data from a third-party product, the solution works slowly."
"Alteryx Designer's cost should be improved."
"When configuring the Logix, the UA could be improved."
"Based on my experience, the tool could be improved by providing sample reports or pre-configured workflows tailored to specific industries, like finance. It needs to integrate an AI chatbot as well."
"I would like to be able to include small snippets of code inside of the solution. The tool has only drag-and-drop features to make it easy to use, but sometimes I feel like this makes it more complicated."
"It is tedious to make a tailor-fit function."
"The only minor drawback would be if there was a UI at the front of it, for apps and for a portal as well, it would make it really easy. It would be really useful if there were more apps capabilities."
"A limitation is that their cloud presence is only in North America and Europe."
"I would like to see the dashboarding and reporting processes improved."
"Workato's Extract, transform, and load (ETL) and extract, load, and transform (ELT) are not very strong and could be improved for very complex transformations."
"The management dashboard in the solution is an area with shortcomings that needs improvement."
"From the deployment point of view, our customers encounter platform downtime where it does not serve the actual request on the systems."
