"You also learn a lot about how to work with a team. As an individual athlete, you have a team of people around you, but you're the focal point, whereas when you're coaching an individual, you're working with a physio, physical trainers, agents, and you need to know how to get your message across to the player and find out what makes them tick.
"That was the thing I learned and something I need to work on if I want to do it again in the future.
"It was a brilliant opportunity for me. We got to spend some really nice moments away from the court. Results weren't as we wanted but we gave it a go.
"We'll see about coaching in the future but I don't think that will happen for a while."
Murray believes Sunday's final is confirmation the sport is in a "great place" and tipped Britain's Jack Draper, ranked fourth in the world, to be part of the success.
"They're both brilliant athletes and very different personalities, which I think for fans is really exciting," Murray said.
"For me, particularly Alcaraz has an exciting brand of tennis to watch, and they complement each other well.
"They've already had some brilliant matches and from what I've been told, it was one of the best finals for a long time. Moving forward, men's tennis is in a great place.
"People always worry at the end of a generation of players what's going to happen with the sport next, but generally sports continue to evolve and, in most cases, improve.
"Jack [Draper]'s right in the mix just now and doing extremely well. He's going to give himself opportunities to win majors over the next five, 10 years."
"The sport's in a really good place, but it's important not to forget what the guys have done before them, what Roger, Rafa and Novak have done," he added.
"Winning 20-plus majors is something exceptional, and it's easy in today's age to forget a little bit about that.
"I saw some pundits saying if [Alcaraz and Sinner] went on court against Rafa at the French Open, they would be favourites going into that match with Rafa in his prime.
"Alcaraz and Sinner are on the path to being two of the best, no doubt about that, but it takes time to build what Roger, Rafa, and Novak had. We'll see whether they get that."
