Abhi has excellent knowledge of Alteryx and he explained things very clearly. He understood our goals and created bespoke demo datasets that were relevant to our organisation, which was very impressive. The training was well-structured and delivered at a good pace, with time for questions.

Deepthi was super attuned to my needs, she could tell when to add layers of complexity and when to hold back and take a more structured approach. Deepthi truly worked at my pace and ensured I was able to use the new functions /tools myself by first showing then letting me recreate the items myself which really helped embed the training. I could not be happier with the results of this training and with the level of expertise of Deepthi!
