Hi Erich,
It’s not an apples to apples comparison. ArcGIS is a geographic information system for managing, analyzing, and sharing geospatial data, both raster (imagery) as well as vector (geometric) data. GIS data is shared in common formats, some are based on an open standard, and some are proprietary (only for use within a commercial GIS application).
Alteryx is not a GIS software by definition. Alteryx includes easy to use geo-spatial capabilities to augment data analytics (both prescriptive and predictive) that meet the need of most business and data analysts. Alteryx may not be a complete replacement of a GIS system, rather can be complementary for many organizations. It is totally dependent on the needs of the user and sophistication of the use cases.
From a capabilities perspective, Alteryx:
