The ability to consolidate data from different sources, translate data into figures, and present it in the most relevant manner. The different visualization options help when you have teams with diverse needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
Presenting large datasets as graphs is tricky. Also, connecting tableau with different sources gets tedious, making it difficult to use by team members who are not tech-savvy.

This is a great tool provided you know how to use it.
Great analytics for sales. Usability for non-tech sales.
What do you like best about the product?
As the title affirms, my company's Tableau admin (i.e. wizard) was able to spin-up super informative data for us as a sales team that we could use in client conversations, and new client prospecting. The bonus is that our sales team was able to use a more basic reporting schema just as easily.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the data seemed to load slowly. Then again, we had a lot of data.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We used it at Groupon as a way to track our progress to monthly goals, and a way to quickly tie-in sales information and competitive market info.
Tableau Review
What do you like best about the product?
Tableau has the best visual tools for dashboards. I really like the graphs and tables I created for my reports. I use different visualization tools like Data Studio or Power BI but Tableau is better than them for visualization. It is easy to read and understand the data. This feature is great for data story-telling.
What do you dislike about the product?
Actually, there is nothing that I dislike about Tableau. However, like many other tools Tableau may get slow especially when I connect it with different Analytical tools other than Excel.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For my reports which I create every week and every month to share with our customers or with other teams inside the company, I use Tableau and they love them. It is easy to connect it with Google Sheets, MS Excel, and Google Analytics and they are the tools that I use most.
Highly utilitarian/functional for monitoring data input daily
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to navigate, barebones, functional, utilitarian, no-frills
What do you dislike about the product?
The user interface could be sleeker and more intuitive at times
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Daily monitoring of data input from various providers
Dashboards for dummies
What do you like best about the product?
Being able to condense our large pricing files and prescription claims data files into a centralized space. We can filter out unneeded information as well as filter out reports for our varying departments.
What do you dislike about the product?
The duplication issue, when joining data sources and creating unions between data sources. Sometimes Tableau will duplicate or create multiple lines of data based on the connection because it cannot handle the join.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am able to load text files that I would'nt be able to open in Excel and build reporting and dashboards based on that data. The benefits are being able to bring together large sets of data into a consolidated view.
Great experience for managing large numbers of data
What do you like best about the product?
Connections with multiples sources and capacity of data
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it is very annoying to wait for the updates (delay)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing large numbers of data, really detailed
It's an extremely valuable tool overall, but it can be problematic to use at times
What do you like best about the product?
In general, it is excellent software for hosting dashboards and data sources. Setting up users, groups and permissions is painless. The server can support a very large amount of dashboards with many multiple, differing refresh schedules.
What do you dislike about the product?
Firstly, we've had continuous challenges with Tableau Server refreshes. One delayed refresh can cause a lot of problems, especially when there are many dashboards dependent on it. Secondly, it can take a little bit of time to understand the scope of permissions as they can be applied on a view level, workbook level or project level. Thirdly, there can be some login and authentication issues via SAML. Sometimes you need to clear your cache for things to fix themselves.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It provides a centralized place in the business for people to access, view and interact with dashboards. Stakeholders can also download extracts of the data directly from the dashboards on Tableau Server which saves a lot of time.
Tableau gets you the information you need in sales!
What do you like best about the product?
Tableau makes it easily viewable so you can see how you are performing with your sales goals. It does a great job of showing you how you are projecting to meet your goal or not. The daily emails are great as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes there are overnight failures with the product where you can not access data the next morning. This makes it hard to figure out each day if it's accurate or not, but does usually get fixed quickly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This solves many reporting issues for internal stakeholders. We are able to share data between teams and see how close we are to making goals. There are many reports you can view through this tool as well.
