Advanced, modern, and cost-effective alternative to Alteryx

EasyMorph is a fast, capable, yet very affordable alternative to Alteryx. It is used by thousands of people around the world every day. EasyMorph offers data preparation capabilities that are on par with Alteryx (EasyMorph doesn't do geospatial/predictive analytics but have stronger workflow automation and data analysis capabilities). At the same time, EasyMorph is more modern and is an order of magnitude less expensive than Alteryx. Features at a glance:

  • Ultimate insight into data — workflow tools and their full outputs (not just top 1000 rows) are displayed in a single workflow view
  • Profile and analyze all column values, full datasets at any workflow point instantly, without recalculation
  • Ultra-fast in-memory engine that processes millions of rows in seconds at once instead of by batches
  • More than 150 tools and tens of additional commands for import/export to/from databases, files, spreadsheets, cloud applications, and REST APIs
  • Automation tools for dealing with Salesforce, SharePoint, Power BI, Tableau, Qlik, email servers, AWS, webhooks, and many other external systems
  • Parameterized tool properties
  • Workflow constructs such as loops (by rows, by columns, for..each, do..while, etc.), conditional branching, subroutines, and exceptions
  • Auto-generated, human-readable documentation in plain English
  • Desktop scheduler at no additional cost
  • Enterprise-ready EasyMorph Server for scheduling, collaboration, and API integration
  • Embedded key-value storage (an industry's first)
  • Thriving online community of users

Affordable pricing makes it possible to empower more people in your organization with advanced self-service data preparation and work automation and spend less on software licenses.

Is EasyMorph less expensive because of subpar quality?

The price difference can be confusing, but don't let it fool you. EasyMorph is a highly capable, fast, top-quality product that is just not overpriced. Unlike Alteryx, which is based on somewhat outdated concepts from the 90s, EasyMorph, as more modern software, benefits from recent advances in computer technology and has excellent data transformation and analysis capabilities. Therefore, the real questions are:

  • Do you really need the geospatial and predictive analytics features in Alteryx to justify the 5-10 times higher price?
  • Do all of your current Alteryx users actually need these features?
  • Do all people who would benefit from a self-service data preparation tool in your organization have access to such tools?

Why is the price difference so significant then?

We believe it's because Alteryx is used to be positioned as a high-end enterprise system that implies a certain sales model. In this model, sales are done mainly by high-salaried enterprise salespeople and involve very expensive marketing. For instance, according to the SEC filings, in 2016, Alteryx Inc spent on sales and marketing about 82% of the gross profit. In order to compensate for the high cost of sales and marketing Alteryx has no choice but to keep prices high for their customers. Overly expensive pricing is a concern that is frequently cited by Alteryx customers. As a result, many Alteryx customers provide self-service data-preparation capabilities to fewer employees than they would like.

Price structure of Alteryx and EasyMorph

On the other hand, we at EasyMorph don't spend a lot on sales and marketing therefore they don't inflate our pricing. Instead, we let the product speak for itself and help it with a bit of online advertisement. As a result, in 2021 alone, EasyMorph's user base grew by 60% (more than 500 organizations use EasyMorph every day). We focus our efforts and resources on product development — calculation speed, ease of use, and suitability for real-life cases. Our business model dramatically reduces licensing costs for our customers while providing them with a modern, versatile, and highly-acclaimed product. But most importantly, it enables our mission — make life easier for non-technical people who work with data. We believe that reasonable licensing is instrumental for the wide adoption of a tool like EasyMorph in an organization so that anyone can bring their productivity to a whole new level.

A user's perspective: Transitioning from Alteryx to EasyMorph

150+ built-in actions and transformations

Query databases, load multiple files at once, use more than 150 built-in tools (we call them actions) to design complex data transformations in a highly interactive, visual way.

Parameterize action properties and expressions for reusability. Use the built-in scheduler (included into the desktop license) or EasyMorph Server to run parameterized tasks hourly, daily, or weekly.

Ultimate insight into workflow logic

Unlike Alteryx, in EasyMorph, data analysis and profiling are an integral part of design. EasyMorph's ultra-fast calculation engine compresses and keeps all data in memory. It makes the full result (not just the top few hundred rows) of every transformation step instantly available for analysis, even if it's millions of rows. The built-in interactive data analysis tools provide an excellent insight into calculation logic at any step, minimize human errors, and reduce time spent on designing and debugging workflows.


  • One-click full-table profiling at any step: num/text/null counts, min/max values, longest/shortest text lengths, uniqueness, etc. for every column.
  • Instant, associative filtering of the full result of any action at any moment to reveal relationships and quality issues in data.
  • One-click column profiling: all unique values, type counts, histogram, and automated data quality suggestions for every column anywhere in a workflow.
  • Full-table search at any step of a workflow without re-calculation or additional tools.

Whitepaper

Alteryx, like many other ETL and analytical applications, is built on concepts from the 90s when computer specifications and business needs were quite different. Whitepaper "Modern data transformation re-thought from scratch" describes how modern computer technology enabled creating EasyMorph, a modern data automation tool designed from the ground up for the present-day demands of users and organizations.

External actions

A subset of actions in EasyMorph is called external actions. The external actions can be inserted anywhere in an EasyMorph workflow for interaction with files, enterprise systems, and cloud applications. For instance:


  • Copy/move/rename/delete/zip/unzip files and folders
  • Receive and send e-mails with attachments
  • Transfer files to/from SFTP servers, SharePoint folders, Amazon S3 buckets, and Google Drive
  • Trigger refreshes and flows in enterprise applications such as Power BI, Qlik, or Tableau Server
  • Trigger actions in cloud systems by sending requests to web (REST) APIs
  • Run external applications and scripts (such as Python scripts)
  • Execute Windows shell commands and PowerShell scripts
  • Trigger stored procedures in databases

Scheduler

Run workflows on schedule — hourly, daily, or on particular days of week or month. Create rule-based alerts (e.g., to monitor data quality issues) and reusable parameterized tasks. The scheduling capability is included without extra charge with both Desktop and Server editions of EasyMorph.

Advanced workflow patterns

With EasyMorph, you can design complex non-linear workflows with loops and conditional branching. For instance, send an e-mail notification automatically with a list of bad records if a data quality issue is detected in a workflow. Or process a list of files in a loop uniformly. Or repeatedly check a database table until a certain record appears in it.
