We performed a comparison between Alteryx and Microsoft Power BI based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Predictive Analytics solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Predictive models, which are easy to use, and help a lot with fast design and deployment."
"Automation is the most valuable aspect for us. The ability to wrap business logic around the data is very helpful."
"The modeling features are very good."
"Good data transformation."
"The three data signs and data engineering are great features."
"The GUI is simple and it integrates with Python."
"Alteryx is a low-code platform, and that's the biggest reason why we chose it."
"The data transformation feature is the most valuable. The ability to ingest data, visualize data, and transform that data is useful."
"The capability to add custom visuals and create Power BI apps. You can package datasets, synchronization details, and dashboards into a single app."
"It's quite flexible, and it's easy to create reports using this system. It is very graphic and very user friendly."
"My primary use is for view of the dashboard."
"It is useful for bringing visualization to data. It calculates counts, ratios, etc."
"The product is intuitive and user-friendly."
"It integrates better with other Microsoft products. It is very easy to use and has very powerful visualizations. It has also got a lot of development going on."
"With the out-of-the-box Data Platform and Business Intelligence ecosystem, you get the entire platform with a single license."
"Microsoft B's beneficial features are that it is a Microsoft product and it is well known by the staff here in the company. It suited the available skills."
"The GUI interface functions but it could stand to be updated to a more modern look and feel."
"The solution could work on the BI side of the tool to make it a bit better."
"In the database, it should be more functional and connect to more big data, especially using IPI."
"The solution just lacks in terms of data visualization. That is why we use Tableau and Qlik in our organization. They help to pick up the slack. If data visualization was added, Alteryx would be a very good tool, and much more complete."
"The solution could improve in the visualization."
"The interface could be improved."
"A colleague of mind mentioned that the solution should have more options for the visualization of data."
"The next feature release should include easier reporting."
"There is no specific area that I have a problem with. It's just that, with whatever feature you come across, every visual has its own formatting and behavior. What you get in one visual for a feature, you don't seem to get in another."
"Right now, their premium pricing is keeping us out of the premium market. The premium price per user just doesn't make sense for us, but we haven't reached the limit of 500 users to justify the premium."
"When we have a big report with lots of data, the solution slows down quite a lot."
"I have been doing trial and error to figuring out how to do the data analyzing and modeling. There could be some improvement to simplify it."
"I would like to see a change in the premium capacity."
"It should be more user-friendly. There are very small or tiny icons that you need to move very carefully. If you go a little bit up and down, some of the values change. Its user interface should be improved. It should be like Tableau. Its performance is also slow and should be improved. I definitely feel some sort of speed issues with Power BI. The integration of Excel with Power BI would also be good."
"The performance of Microsoft BI could improve for large datasets and it would be beneficial to have more visualization features."
"The formatting template could be improved."
