Tableau is becoming the tool of choice for large and medium size enterprises who are making data visualization a priority.If you are working in a company which is working on Data so they must need a tool which can transform data in to graphs so that they can easily understand data pattern. Tableau is a data visualization tool which help us to give quick insights of large amount of data and gives you back interactive graphs, maps and others according to your need.

Easy to use : Tableau is easy to use and it is basically using drag and drop functionalities, which is easy to perform operations, with the help of drag and drop functionalities user can easily create a visualization in a minutes.

Handle Large amount of Data : Tableau can handle millions of rows of data with ease. You can easily process large amount of data and by making a visualization you can easily figure out the pattern in data. Different types of visualization can be created with a large amount of data without impacting the performance of the dashboards. Also, there is an option in Tableau where the user can make "live connection" to different data sources like sql etc.

With the help of these graphs user can easily see the spread of corona in India. You can check it on my linkedin account : https://www.linkedin.com/in/falah-anwar-khan-553176167/.

Tableau Dashboard has a great and fast reporting features that allows you to customise Dashboard specifically for a certain device such as a mobile phone or laptop. Tableau automatically understands which device is the user is viewing the report on and make adjustments to ensure that the right report is served to the right device.

Good for Data Storage and Visualization

  • July 24, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
My favorite thing about tableau is the sheer volume of data it can store and visualize. I can look at data for a company of 50,000+, or I can check metrics for a single employee.
What do you dislike about the product?
Tableau is not as simple as other tools to manipulate. Filtering data in particular requires a lot of specialized knowledge about table building.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have used Tableau for deep diving customer service metrics for many years. It helps create a centralized repository for many different KPIs and business metrics.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are willing to spend the time tweaking with the filtering, this is a great tool for visualizing and manipulate large sets of data.

Data visualization for client facing presentations.
This is a clear and straightforward output that is easy for clients to glance at and understand.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
learn the uploading format. It's complicated! Taylor survey data collection to easily fit into the format and avoid multiple versions of a survey

Tableau’s data virtualization is way above what traditional BI vendors offer

  • May 28, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Quite user friendly interface with options to use multiple worksheets to create a dashboard and multiple dashboards to create a story.

Sometimes it takes a while to refresh. It takes a lot of effort in data manipulation to match queries. Creating dashboards to show the right kind of visuals at times involve creating multiple worksheets which can be tedious.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It loads quite fast. I have solved the issues of moving visuals from Google Sheets to Tableau for my client successfully and the results were brilliant.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Though the interface can be a bit boring at times, please don't allow that to undermine the potential of Tableau. This tool offers excellent visuals. Try using the Map feature which is fantastic to use.

Easy interface to use

  • November 19, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that you can easily download large data sets to summarise data. I like all the column and row headings as they are clear to understand. I like that you can custom make workbooks.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don’t like that you have to highlight cells in order to download the data and that the whole data set downloads instead of just the highlighted data. I don’t like that sometimes the filters are confusing with excluding and including certain parameters.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Good to get data summarised and in a standardised way. And now I can see graph so and plot trends with the newer workbooks.
