When I looked at their website, they have partnerships with significant players that are in this space (in their own way): Tableau, Microsoft (Excel, Microsoft BI), and Qlik. That can be a powerful combination.
This is an interesting article that they shared on their company via on LinkedIn: http://bit.ly/2BlBfJz
It speaks about 6 predictions about data science, machine learning, and AI for 2018.
Those of us who have been around since BI (business intelligence) first became an acronym know that Southwest Airlines is a legendary pioneer in the use of BI dashboards and drill down. It should be recognized as a professional compliment and endorsement that one of the first users of BI to improve business operations is an Alteryx client.
According to prospectus on 8-Sept-17 , a sale of 8MM shares, most by venture capitalists, about 600K by Dean Stoecker CEO, there are 59MM shares out; about 12MM class A and 47MM class B. Class B have 10x the votes of class A.
After the sale Stoecker still owns 20% of class B shares. One other exec / venture capitalist owns about 23%. All told insiders own more than 50%.
about 12MM class A and 47MM class B. Class B have 10x the votes of class A.
I generally avoid companies with this kind of discrimination against outside shareholders. It is the reason I never bought any Google stock. If they want my money but not my opinion they can sell me non-callable bonds with a 15% yield to maturity.

That really matters to you, Denny? You’d deprive yourself of a good investment because of it? I can’t remember the last time I voted shares of any stock. Certainly not in the past 20 years. If I’m not happy I just leave, I don’t start an activist stockholders protest. Do you? I figure these guys are going to do what is in their best interest, and what’s in their best interest is in mine too. Does it matter how many votes you have? Really???
