Just spent about a day& #39;s worth of time to do my due-D of Alteryx $AYX. God I wish AYX can automate it.

We all know the value of data, but very little of us know how to extract insights & derive its value. $AYX is on every stage of a BI project, from:
Prep, Manipulation, Analysis, Modelling, Deploying (my opinion).
Every employee deals with data, & $AYX empowers them.

Their core service revolves around their Designer application. Designer provides the pipeline with which data goes in as input, & insights/information come out as output. With drag & drop items, even employees without any coding/modelling background can deliver insights.

I don& #39;t think I& #39;ve done a great job in explaining them, but @StackInvesting& #39;s article speaks in-depth about these 4 products. I referenced heavily on that article to understand the products. Thanks!

In Q2& #39;20 $AYX pivoted from the & #39;empowering of citizen data scientists& #39; to being a leader in & #39;Analytic Process Automation& #39;. This (imo) encompasses a wider value proposition, into being the only pipeline where enterprises can & #39;deliver better & faster business outcomes& #39;.

@hhhypergrowth& #39;s article on this new APA platform shows exactly the direction & trajectory of where $AYX is heading towards. This helped me understand a great deal about their new offering. Thanks!

Financials:
DBNER from 134% -> 126% over the past 6 Qs.
Cust. growth ~ +400 QoQ past few Qs.
Gross Margins at 90%.
They are currently guiding for just a 10-11% YoY rev increase for FY20 (too conservative imo). We& #39;d have to see Q3 for the use of their new platform.

I am a simple person, & coming from a Business Analyst background (was my major), I can see the clear value of a platform like $AYX & the benefits it will bring to any company wanting better & more insightful business outcomes.

Price got beaten down ~30% after Q2 results, but if anything that makes $AYX even more attractive now.
