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."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."
"It has everything that one needs. Whatever you want to do with the data can be done with Alteryx."
"The three data signs and data engineering are great features."
"Geo features have made spatial mapping large retail universes possible."
"This is a drag-and-drop tool which is easy-to-use and yet can be customized by creating your own components."
"Alteryx speeds up the time to obtain business answers/insights on data."
"The most valuable feature of Alteryx is user-friendliness."
"One-stop shop for data preparation, blending, prediction, and optimization in a single workflow."
"Anaplan's strongest feature is that its GUI is very modern and user-friendly."
"The features that I have found most valuable are that it is web-based and easy to use."
"It's real-time connected planning, so the calculations are pretty much seamless as far as your model is connected."
"Anaplan is a three-dimensional cloud platform that is good for analyzing data, visualization, integration, terrific for visibility."
"The solution scales well."
"Technical support has been good."
"Where we're seeing the opportunity in the market is at the Fortune 100 companies that have far more complex modeling type scenarios where you need to be able to have a lot of people collaborating together, and you need a lot of information all at everyone's fingertips. This is where you see the big advantage of a solution like Anaplan."
"I am impressed with the tool’s real-time calculations and intuitive interface. The tool’s user interface is the best compared to other software that I have worked with. I also find the tool’s management reporting feature valuable."
"The solution could work on the BI side of the tool to make it a bit better."
"They should make the solution user-friendly for nontechnical people by giving specific names to the options."
"I think better visualization would be helpful to this solution."
"It seems to me that it is not always user friendly."
"The solution could improve in the visualization."
"Alteryx's development environment could be improved as it requires installation locally and can't be developed in the cloud."
"The formula we currently use in Alteryx can be automated."
"Configuration is very low."
"Anaplan's workflow component is probably the biggest area for improvement. I'd also like to see Anaplan add an ad hoc reporting tool that allows users to query things. It's going to factor into how you design your data set and your models, but I'd like the ability to create ad hoc queries against the data that's in there."
"Anaplan should come up with flexible options to connect to a data warehouse rather than an Anaplan hub."
"The negative is that the higher the flexibility, the higher is the complexity. That can act against you as a negative because it does require a model builder or a coder/developer."
"The visualization tools in the product are limited in comparison to other reporting tools."
"Anaplan is a relatively expensive piece of software."
"The price of the solution can improve."
"The integration technique should be a little bit easier."
"When there is a lot of data, it sometimes takes long to load."
