User Group Resources

Do you love all things Alteryx? Do you dream in workflows? Do you enjoy the thrill of solving? Do you want to share your knowledge and learn something new from others? Have you at least once called yourself an Alteryx Addict? Becoming a leader of your local Alteryx Community is for you!

    Mission Statement Alteryx User Groups are independent volunteer organizations created for users, run by users and supported by Alteryx. Here you have an opportunity to meet locally or virtually to bring together a broad range of backgrounds so users of all skill levels can share ideas, experiences, and best practices in analytics. User Groups are the perfect way to meet people with similar interests and truly connect around the ways that Alteryx has amplified your life both inside and outside of work. You can get involved with any user group type, including Local and Internal. Join one or join them all; the only limitation is your own bandwidth. Getting plugged in is the first step to meeting people just like you to network, share ideas, and plan the total domination of your industry. FAQ's Who can attend Alteryx User Groups meeting? All are welcome to attend! Whether you’re new to Alteryx or a seasoned Alteryx Addict, everyone from all skill levels are able to take away invaluable insights from like-minded peers during these User Group meetings.   How can I be notified about all upcoming User Groups meetings in my area? To hear about upcoming meetings occurring in your area, please join the desired User Group page(s)! By joining you will be notified of all upcoming meetings and secure your spot before space runs out. You may join as many Alteryx User Group pages as you wish. All meeting announcements will be posted to the relevant page by the User Group leaders.   Can I post on the Alteryx User Groups pages? Yes! All of our User Groups members can post on their User Group page for the following items: Job listings that are Alteryx related and relevant to the region it is posted in Networking opportunities for fellow Alteryx users to connect Product questions should be directed to the appropriate areas on the Community   What I can expect by attending an Alteryx User Group meeting? By attending one of our User Groups you can expect to: Meet like-minded Alteryx peers face-to-face and build your local network during quarterly meetings Hear from local users on how they’re leveraging Alteryx to alter their analytics Listen to up to date product information and announcements Dive into hands-on training and learn new ways to use the Alteryx platform   I want to participate in an Alteryx User Group! How can I lend a hand? If you are interested in participating in our local User Groups by: presenting, hosting a meeting, sponsoring food/refreshments etc., please fill out our User Group Interest Form to select how you would like to participate and support our Alteryx User Groups.   I don’t see a local User Group in my area. How can I request a new Alteryx User Group in my area? Please fill out our User Group Interest form with the best business email to reach back out to. Our User Groups team will review every application and get back to applicants on whether the desired User Group can be launched in a new city/region on a bi-annual basis.  The team is now accepting volunteers to support a new type of user group which will support Alteryx users virtually within a specific region. These leaders will be tasks with coordinating quarterly 1-hour long meetings that will occur virtually.    I want to start an Internal User Group within my organization. How can I get started? Fill out the User Group Interest Form on Community Review “Starting an Internal Alteryx User Group” Looking for immediate resources to help you get started? Download our Internal User Group Playbook for quarterly updated resources to help you and your leadership team stay organized   I see an Alteryx User Group on LinkedIn or Facebook but it’s not listed on Community. Why is that? All Alteryx sponsored user groups are listed on the Community directory. If you would like to become a sponsored user group, please fill out the User Group Interest Form and someone from the team will get in touch.   Alteryx Partner Guidelines For our partners we have a few guidelines for participating with a User Group. See attached.   Issues If you have questions that cannot be discussed in the Alteryx User Group page, email usergroups@alteryx.com   Inappropriate Content If you notice users breaching guidelines, feel free to give them guidance. If you see specific cases of abuse, rudeness or other violations, please flag them to the attention of the community team by choosing "Notify Moderator" from the message's Options menu and let us know why you feel the content is inappropriate.

UPDATED: 5/19/2020   What is an Internal Alteryx User Group? An opportunity for Alteryx users to meet internally within their organization to share use cases, workflows, tips & tricks and best practices. An internal Alteryx User Group enables users to connect with peers in other teams, departments and offices in their organization to gain insights on how to leverage Alteryx.   How often do users meet and what are topics of discussion? Internal Alteryx User Groups get together quarterly or monthly for one hour in-person and/or via WebEx, Skype or Microsoft Teams. Meeting frequency does vary so it’s recommended to survey the user base. See below for link to the Internal Playbook that contains many resources to get you started!   Let’s Get Started! Here are the steps to launch your Internal User Group: Build a User Group Leadership Committee: Get a group of Alteryx enthusiasts to collaborate and lead, think about having User Group leaders representing different departments Download Internal Playbook: Quarterly updated  resources designed to help you and your leadership stay organized: Meeting Deck, Speaker Deck, Meeting Announcement Template and Meeting Recap Template Connect Alteryx users internally: Create an internal community (Slack, Private LinkedIn Group, or Internal Intranet) so users can collaborate before and after meetings and to stay up to date on past and future meetings. Survey Alteryx users: Determine desired topics, current benefits, challenges and meeting frequency.  Plan Meetings: Follow the Internal Playbook - Meeting Deck   Best Practices: How to make your user group fun, engaging, and ensure growth Constantly poll your attendees Most commonly individuals stop attending because the user group is not valuable to their needs. Set expectations with the attendees The user group is for all Alteryx users within your organization. The Internal User Group is a community. It's a safe space for all to come together to ask questions and learn from each other. Although the user group leaders plan and execute meetings, the community needs to participate to help provide direction and content (speakers). This is very important to discuss at each meeting as it will help secure future speakers and topics. Think 5 steps ahead Plan meetings for the entire year to provide the best chance for high attendance. Always be looking for presenters.  Think about a contingency plan for the leadership team if a leader needs to step away from the group.  Make meetings fun We recommend incorporating trivia or live polling during virtual meetings. Kahoot! and Mentimeter have been very popular platforms to use. Utilizing Alteryx Academy and the Weekly Challenges to challenge and up level Alteryx skills. Tip: Challenge the user group to complete the weekly challenge before meetings. Discuss at the meeting results. Use the power of swag to encourage behaviors Challenge the group to complete a weekly challenge and select 3 winners Pick 5 names from attendees who filled out a meeting survey   Questions?

       Inspire Las Vegas, June 5 th -7 th , 2017   User Groups, on your mark, get set, GO!   Last year, Alteryx User Groups had the honor of participating in the 2016 Alteryx Grand Prix at Inspire San Diego. This resulted in the crowning of Peter Muller (Amsterdam User Group) as champion.   For those of you who are just joining us, you may be wondering, what is the Grand Prix? Traditionally, the Alteryx Grand Prix was a data analytics “racing” competition, where constants (drivers) armed with Alteryx Designer and wit solved a series of typical data analytics challenges faster than their competitors in front of a crowd at Inspire. Sounds exciting, right? In 2017, the Grand Prix is receiving a makeover with a new format. Instead of one driver, three drivers will form one super racing team! As the old saying goes, “Two (errr…three) heads are better than one.”   Each driver will select 1 of 3 specialty topics: Favorites Categories, Spatial, and Predictive. Each person will contribute by completing a portion of a project. The project will be presented and judged by Alteryx users at Inspire Las Vegas. Be prepared for some hairpin turns, burn outs, and (maybe) crashes!   Information and Rules Lap 1: Assemble the Alteryx User Group Racing Team In your first lap, you will select your Racing Team! Accelerate forward to see an example of how to organize selecting a team at your meeting! If there is more than one User Group racing team submitted, teams can present reasons why they should represent their local Alteryx User Group at Alteryx Grand Prix.  Fun Ways to Present: Demo your Alteryx skills using a weekly challenge solution Demo your awesome presentation skills Develop Top 5 Reasons Our Team is the Dream Racing Team Describe your years of experience using Alteryx and being a part of the Community Describe how it’s been your childhood dream to compete in the Alteryx Grand Prix… Build your Racing Team at the User Group meeting and pedal to the metal towards Lap 2!
