Alteryx Designer vs SAS Enterprise Miner: Which is a better fit?

Griffin G

Senior Strategic Planning Analyst

The online portal is excellent as well; there's a whole community ready and willing to assist and help you get better at using Alteryx. Very impressive software.

The limitation of some tools and the high barrier to developing new functionality.

Daniel D

Managing Executive Analytics

Great assistance from Altyrex - committed resources at no cost to help implement, train etc. A lot of willingness to help us 'prove' the business case - i.e. make a success of the pilot project.

License is very costly which hinders the use of it by everyone.

The best thing about this product is its ease of use. It's so easy to pick up, and so versatile that anyone can benefit from it.

I dislike how it can be at time cumbersome when one creates complex workflows that take over an hour to load just once.

No coding experience necessary, seamless integration with Tableau and SQL, great workflow icons and capabilities, great automation.

Simplify Data Manipulation with the Press of a Button.

One of the best analytics tools in the market and very user friendly. I particularly loved the flexibility and availability of a variety of model selections.

Really difficult to use, difficult to navigate, and GUI needs to be updated as well as the product documentation.

The software is amazing that it can produce such advanced models with a very simple user interface. The benefits I saw was more accurate forecasts in a quarter of the time to set up models.

It's a pain to transfer between programs when I've done everything else in SAS to produce the graphics elsewhere. Also, data management in SAS is notoriously underwhelming.

It has an amazing simple to use user interface,compares different models and gives you the best working model within the set data parameters.

It is very very expensive and difficult to obtain, especially for a student. Probably so even for a small company.

Sapna S

Database Analyst

The most amazing thing about the software is the graphic design and the speed of processing. Moreover it allows us to change the data whenever we want to instead of rewriting the data.

Donald D

Information Analyst

It's not always clear where one should go when something goes wrong. Making changes to processes that others have made, and didn't document properly, can be a real cause of consternation.
