## Trusted by the largest enterprises

Trusted by leading global enterprises including HSBC, JP Morgan, Microsoft, Amgen, ClearWater, SAP, Ralph Lauren, Deutsche Telekom, Marks & Spencer, and Toyota.

## Why enterprises are leaving Alteryx

Your team outgrew Alteryx. Rising per-seat costs, governance gaps, desktop-bound workflows that can’t scale to Databricks or Snowflake, and rewrites just to reach production. These aren’t edge cases — they’re the top reasons enterprises migrate.

### Common Reasons:
- No single source of truth for data workflows
- Governance gaps with cloud data platforms
- Workflows stuck on desktop, hard to operationalize
- Rising per-seat licensing costs
- Zero portability across Databricks, Snowflake, BigQuery
- Rewrites required for every production deployment

The question isn’t whether to modernize — it’s how fast you can do it without disrupting your teams.

## Alteryx vs. Prophecy: What changes

### Before

Alteryx
- Desktop-bound visual workflows in a proprietary black box.
- No version control, limited governance, no native integration with your data platform.
- Every move to production or platform change requires rewriting proprietary logic from scratch.

### After

AI agents generate visual data workflows from plain-language prompts. Users validate each step for tremendous productivity gains.

Visual workflows are real code on Git — for any SQL or Spark platform — with built-in governance, versioning, tests, and CI/CD for production.

## Proven Results

## Customer Success Stories

### How Amgen cut costs and doubled KPI speed by replacing Alteryx

Amgen — one of the world’s leading biotech companies — migrated 200+ Alteryx workflows to Prophecy on Databricks. The results: retired legacy infrastructure, 2× faster KPI delivery, and 1,500+ users served.

#### Results:
- **Reduced Cost:** Amgen retired expensive legacy Alteryx infrastructure, consolidating onto Databricks + Prophecy.
- **2× Faster KPI Refresh Cycles:** Complex, mission-critical workflows were successfully replicated and improved in a scalable Spark environment.
- **Migrated 200+ Workflows:** Modernized pipelines now deliver key performance indicators at double the previous speed—enabling stronger operational oversight.
- **Served 1,500+ Users:** The rebuilt ecosystem delivers up-to-date financial insights to thousands of internal users and stakeholders.
- **Improved Collaboration & Maintainability:** Prophecy’s visual interface enabled faster onboarding and allowed business and technical teams to speak a common language.
