We have a complete guide talking about Alteryx and what it is. However, to make it brief, Alteryx is a data analytics and visualization tool that focuses on making advanced analytics automation simple and making it available for all data professionals. Alteryx is a tool that allows users to prepare, blend and analyze data from many sources with no coding required prior. It gives you the ability to create complex workflows in much the same way that drag-and-drop programs do, allowing you to access your data from multiple sources, clean it, transform it and perform advanced analytics and visualization. The main advantage of using Alteryx to create your workflows is that you can automate your data analytics processes to reduce the amount of mundane manual work you need to do. These workflows can then be saved to be used the next time, making it much easier to repeat steps in a process like data processing and analytics tasks. It also helps to diminish instances of errors by eliminating manual data manipulation. We have more hands-on work for the rest of the tutorial; follow along to help learn.
