What do you like best about the product?
Tableau is really a powerful tool. It is capable of analyze GBs of data in minutes and to create graphs and customized views. All the generated graphs are navigable in real time by filtering, bounding and aggregating metrics. I'm really surprised how many data sources are integrated into this application, capable of connecting to almost any database for real-time analysis.

The subscription fees are expensive. I tried the trial version and my company is evaluating the possibility to buy some licenses.

It is possible to analyse almost on any device a lot of data, simply by selecting metrics and aggregation functions. It is possible to export the graphs, in order to put them on websites without give up the possibility to interact real-time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Thanks to the visual and interactive analysis, you can solve difficult questions and quickly get all the answers you need to boost your business. Take into account the possibility of using free software, since Tableau licenses are quite expensive.

Tableau for Intelligence

  • September 28, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ability to slice and manipulate data in ways that allow decisions makers to succeed. There are many business intelligence tools out there and from top-notch vendors such as Microsoft. Tableau is one that I have found both easy to use, as well as offering a variety of ways to manipulate and extract information from large amounts of data. If you're looking to impress managers, make key decisions, or extract strategic takeaways then Tableau is extremely helpful. It has also helped me develop new KPI's (key performance indicators) that provide valuable insight into the business. It has both impressed managers and allowed for weekly updates with new and updated data.
What do you dislike about the product?
The initial learning curve - finding what you need and linking to external files.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Developing KPI's, charts and tables that aid in decision making and strategic direction. You will notice that there are ways to manipulate and display data that will provide managers to make key decisions. I'd recommend anyone just download the trial and give it a shot.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
At least give it a try. Compare it to you other BI tools.
