The Alteryx Community turned nine this month, and we feel like celebrating! What has our community been up to since last September? We can answer that—with data, of course.
1. Completing Weekly Challenges
|
|
Our members completed an unbelievable number of challenges in the past year:
18,323 challenges completed (including cloud quests)
In February, the Academy team released Cloud Quests. These bi-weekly challenges are a fun way to get hands-on experience with our cloud products.
In July, the Community team enhanced the Weekly Challenge page experience! With new features like filtering and progress tracking, it’s easier to find challenges to tackle that will help you meet your learning goals.

2. Attending User Groups
|
This past year, we had over 3,000 User Group meeting attendees around the globe at 170 meetings! Kudos to the 140+ User Group leaders who made these meetings possible.
We also added some new User Groups—check out the graphic above to see if there’s a group in your area. You can join your local user group here. Don’t see a User Group in your area? Contact usergroups@alteryx.com if you’re interested in starting one.
Check the calendar here for upcoming events, some of which are virtual or hybrid! Our Community team improved the event calendar and registration process over the past few months so our User Group meetings can deliver even more value.

Additionally, a big kudos to the 212 Community members who spoke at Inspire! It takes guts and subject matter expertise to present at a conference with over 3,400 attendees.

Since our last anniversary, we’ve added 16 new ACEs to the program! You can find their names and Community handles here.

On the Alter Everything podcast, we heard from 32 community members. We wanted to highlight our episode with @caltang from earlier in the year because he speaks to the joy of helping and connecting with others in the Maveryx community. Check it out here.

Here’s a fun project the Community team delivered earlier in the year—you can see new and important knowledge (like blogs, challenges, podcasts, interactive lessons, and more) inside Alteryx Designer! The revamped & Community-hosted “Start Here” pop-up page is available starting in Designer 24.1.
