- Instantly create the analytics needed for a project with any data: By enabling analysts to rapidly integrate and cleanse data from any source (Excel, text files, Data Warehouses, Big Data sources such as Hadoop, Cloud applications like SalesForce.com, social media and more), Alteryx removes the barriers of long IT and data warehouse processes, allowing customers to cut the time spent integrating and cleansing data by up to 70 percent or more1.
- Easily build analytic workflows and quickly iterate as business evolves: By providing an easy to use, no coding way to create sophisticated analytics, the Alteryx Strategic Analytics, Project Edition delivers the advanced capabilities locked away in legacy solutions to the mass of analysts, while enabling 87 percent of Alteryx customers to report value in less than a week2.

In addition, Alteryx Strategic Analytics 8.5 is now available to further support the Consumerization of Big Data by putting powerful analytics into the hands of the business analyst and decision makers.

Alteryx Strategic Analytics 8.5 also comes with added pre-packaged, drag and drop predictive tools built on the recently released R 3.0.0.
“Tableau and Alteryx are making it easier for our customers to gain insights and make data driven decisions,” said Dan Jewett, vice president of product management at Tableau Software. “People can create sophisticated analytic workflows with advanced predictive analysis, and then output directly to a Tableau Data Extract for superior visualization and analysis.”
