We performed a comparison between Alteryx and Amazon QuickSight based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Alteryx, RapidMiner, SAP and others in Predictive Analytics."The tools are built-in. You just plug and play, drag and drop, once you understand how to use the tools, it is easy."
"It is efficient in optimizing our ability to get information."
"I think the most valuable feature for Alteryx in a health facility is that it permits cleaning, organizing, and merging of databases such as Excel and Access."
"It allows for manipulation and automation, which has greatly reduced the amount of time required per project."
"The solution has excellent drag and drop functionality. There's no need for coding."
"I like the solution's velocity, the speed with which it processes data, and its ease of use."
"The value add of Alteryx is the agility for making changes, and speed of deployment."
"I like that I can merge data from different sources into one place."
"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."
"I like that with Amazon QuickSight, you don't need to install an app to use its services. With other BI tools, you need to install the app, so Amazon QuickSight is better for me in this area."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the user interface."
"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."
"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."
"The most valuable feature of Amazon QuickSight is its connectivity with other Amazon services."
"The solution is simple to implement."
"The integration is very seamless. We stored our result CSV files in S3 and connected directly from there."
"A feature which allows the user to be able to click on an output (in a file browser) and see the creation of the module would be fantastic."
"The formula we currently use in Alteryx can be automated."
"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."
"I think they should really work on integrating or have a capacity to integrate some algorithmic code. I think that's one of the most important things they need to be doing."
"Configuration is very low."
"Sometimes, there are performance constraints. Especially when a large file has to be ingested, the system slows down a bit. Its performance is the only thing that can be improved."
"I'd like to see more artificial intelligence business tools or features in Alteryx."
"We can't browse multiple files. When we deploy a solution on a gallery, let's say I have ten different files, and I have to upload them all at once. This is something that's difficult in the gallery. So case by case, I see some downsides, but often we do something alternative."
"It's not ideal for reports that are more complex."
"Amazon QuickSight's visualization could be improved."
"The product is quite expensive because the price is too close to QlikView's prices but it does not ring as well as QlikView."
"One area is that integrating data from different sources into QuickSight can be a bit tricky, especially with Amazon Connect. To get data flowing, you need to use two additional services and configure them correctly."
"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."
"Amazon QuickSight has minimal features. The feature set can be improved to allow you to create good production-ready dashboards. This does not happen with QuickSite, it needs to mature to be used in production."
"Lacked connectivity with other third-party tools and data sources."
"There could be an end-to-end pipeline for data cleaning as well as presenting it using different visualizations."
