According to a new press release, “Alteryx, Inc., revolutionizing business through data science and analytics, today announced the general availability of the newest version of the Alteryx analytics platform (2018.3). The release introduces new features that greatly enhance how users prepare, analyze, share and collaborate on data across the organization, now amplified with our newest innovation: Visualytics. Visualytics provides real-time, interactive visualizations across the Alteryx platform, enabling any data worker in an organization to easily visualize and understand their data throughout the entire analytics workflow, generating data-driven insights. Data analysts can now see their data at any point along the workflow to identify errors or outliers, make more informed decisions and streamline the analytics process. Inline Visualytics gives data scientists instant visual validation on the health of their analysis to maximize the effectiveness of business-critical models. A new Interactive Chart Tool lets users easily create Visualytics outputs, such as charts and graphs, to share in a multitude of ways. Analysts can create dashboards using the new Alteryx Insight Tool to combine multiple interactive charts together, then share with others for collaboration and discovery of further insights.”
