4YR - Community Infographic.pngIn September of 2015 we launched the all-new Alteryx Community online and in the years since we’ve witnessed incredible growth, flourishing relationships, and amazing stories of analytic success. Our Community is a gathering place, where Alteryx enthusiasts from all walks of life come together to experience the thrill of solving. We’re so proud of everything we’ve accomplished throughout the past several years and are honored to be a part of your Alteryx journey.

 

Year 4 | Milestones

 


In anticipation of today's celebration, we invited you to take a stab at guessing the momentous 100k member milestone. While @kelly_gilbert was the first to guess the exact achievement we had in mind, we appreciated the supplemental insight from everyone who participated.

 

@patrick_digan@Claje, @JosephSerpis -- Thanks for helping identify key milestones to include in the snazzy anniversary infographic!

In addition to the aforementioned achievements, we’ve delivered on a number of key objectives designed to not only make your experience better — but expand the availability and reach of Community resources to new audiences across the globe.

 

Here are just a few notable highlights from year four:

 

New Language Communities

 

As we’ve expanded our footprint into new markets around the world support for additional languages in community has been a popular request. We heard your voices, and over the past year we launched a total of five new language communities:

 

 

Today, key features include a discussion forum & knowledge base, use cases, blogs, and easy access to local Alteryx User Groups. It’s only the beginning... and we can’t wait to see what the future brings!

 

Alteryx Academy - Available in Japanese


Back in March we incorporated additional learning resources within the Japanese Community via Academy. The launch of Alteryx Academy in Japanese is a great example of the direction we are heading with our community localization efforts across the board.

 

Alteryx Community Version 19.6

 

In v19.6 we focused our efforts on improving navigation by re-designing the Community landing page to showcase key community features and opportunities to get involved. Your feedback was instrumental in this process and we could not have done it without you. Check out the release blog to learn more about our approach.

Our commitment to continual improvement only grows stronger with each new release and as you continue to share valuable feedback and ideas with us.

Stay tuned throughout the end of 2019 and into 2020 for more!


Year 4 | Top Contributors

 

For many, the community serves as fuel for their engines - a place they can go to get insights that propel their work to the next level. Thousands (hundreds of thousands to be exact...) of users contribute their knowledge to make that possible and we’d be remiss if we didn’t call out our most dedicated members. It’s also become a bit of an anniversary tradition to acknowledge and award those who go above & beyond to help the community thrive.

From helping answer questions in the forums to participating in the weekly challenges, and everything in between, it’s YOUR contributions that power opportunities for everyone to learn & grow. It’s not about what you know, it’s about what you share, and the top contributors that we are recognizing today truly embrace the power of sharing with the Community day in and day out.

Without further ado, I am excited to announce our Year 4 Top Contributors!

I wasn't here to witness the birth, but am damn proud to have been here to live through the growth, fun, and love that our community has to offer! Too many favorite moments to list, so these two photos from Nashville will have to do. Can't wait to see everyone in London!

I have lots of happy memories from the 4th year, but here are a few that are top of mind.

 

1) @MarqueeCrew showing up at Inspire Nashville in full-on cow boy get-up! Those boots will go down in history...

2) Another memorable moment of mine was spending hours with @TuvyL and several ACEs (including but not limited to @Claje@Treyson@BenMoss@mbarone@Joe_Lipski) trying to finish one of the coolest puzzles I've ever seen. We didn't even get close...

 

EPIC ACE PUZZLEEPIC ACE PUZZLE

 

I don't think I've ever seen someone geek out on a puzzle as much as @Treyson... 

 

3) FINALLY getting to meet @patrick_digan in person -- a once in a lifetime opportunity.
