Find out what your peers are saying about Alteryx, RapidMiner, SAP and others in Predictive Analytics."I like the fact that you can easily blend data from different platforms."
"I believe that the ability to leverage the gallery for scalability, as well as the general data blending functionality, is most beneficial to our core-based users."
"Automation is the most valuable aspect for us. The ability to wrap business logic around the data is very helpful."
"It is one of the most complete and great customer service that I experienced with a software company/ecosystem."
"You get more support with Alteryx, and it's good for non-sophisticated users who can benefit from the support included in the price."
"Technical support is very helpful."
"The filtering is fast, and it provides a search tool that is great."
"The solution has been stable."
"ThoughtSpot takes the modifying of existing reports out of our hands."
"It is easy to set up the solution."
"I would say the return on investment is good. Whatever we invested, we got results. We have been finding it easy to use and onboard new use cases."
"The scalability is good."
"It's easy to drill down or expand data to get more details right out of the box."
"The ability to do ad hoc explorations of data has been most valuable."
"The initial setup was very straightforward."
"I like ThoughtSpot's search capabilities. You can also create custom analytics even if you aren't an experienced data analyst. We have users with no data analytics experience making some of the dashboards we've created, copying components, and customizing them to their specific use cases."
"It would be nice if they can provide Alteryx with more options for In-DB connectivity. That functionality is there, but it doesn't include all software we are connecting."
"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."
"The solution can be made more affordable."
"There are a few imputation techniques which they really need to include."
"They should work on its pricing."
"Even when it already includes some AI models, this area could be improved."
"The interface could be improved."
"It would be great if Alteryx could take third party tools and incorporate them."
"A customized visualization is lacking in this product."
"The most difficult thing I found is that it only deals with the files and does not have direct connectivity to databases."
"ThoughtSpot is a fairly new product, so some usability aspects aren't as mature as we'd like them to be. One example is their organizational methodology, like how objects are organized in their dashboards inside the product. They're all on a flat list, which works if you've got five or 10 dashboards. However, it's insufficient when you're a large enterprise with multiple groups looking at the same dashboards. It isn't organized well."
"In terms of features, I'd like to be able to pivot data - for example, going from rows to columns. It's not easy to do."
"I would like to see more flexibility in adding the pins. Currently, we have four different sizes in which I can add pins, but I would like to be able to resize my pins."
"The dashboards could give you more ability to fine tune the appearance. You get a great deal more control over how something looks in Power BI than you do in ThoughtSpot."
"If I want to order columns, this feature is not there."
"The one area of the solution that I do hear needs improvement is on the visualization front."
