New Alteryx Learner

I'm a new Alteryx learner and an Accounting major. I'm enjoying learning Alteryx so far and am amazed at its ability to manipulate large data. Mastering  Alteryx will be a significant advantage for me when I graduate and join the workforce. I'm wondering which companies are currently using Alteryx in their accounting departments, and how to learn Alteryx effectively.

Hi @TiffanyTran12 

 

As nowadays most of the companies have started using Alteryx in future it will be like one of MANDATORY applications like Excel.

 

Banking industry, accounting, and many start-ups have started using extensively as it is of low code no code where non-IT individuals can also learn quickly and implement in their work soon.
