Somewhat confusing, but very thorough

  • July 25, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the detailed reporting and calculation capabilities of Tableau. The ability to have pre-populated fields to generate templates and reports to share with clients is the most compelling from a sales perspective. From a data collection standpoint, it goes well beyond anything comparable.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike the overly complex layout and cumbersome means of creating reports. While it has complexities to it to assist with creating analysis, it lacks the user experience optimization and intuitiveness that one would look for in a tool like this. Then again, people don't go to Tableau for fancy bells and whistles, they go to have automated calculations and pre-populated reports--check and check.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being able to create business impact reports and ROI documentation.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is solid for universal reporting and reports creation!

One of the best visualization tool so far.

  • July 20, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I do lots of visualizations, create dashboards and reports using Tableau , it handle large data sets easily , i can create reports within few mins without any difficulty. It is easy to slice and dice data for business to understand the data. It can easily connect to many databases out their.
What do you dislike about the product?
One thing i don't like is it is very hard to connect to SAS software has i use SAS tool to prepare data, and i need to use ODBC drivers to connect and sometimes in my organization it is not allowed to connect using ODBC drivers and lats thing it is very expensive tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I used to create reports, dashboards and prepare story line out it. Benefits are i can easily move from one tab to another tab easily and can create lot of filters in a chat and automate lot of stuff. I use server version to publish my report to buisness.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you want to work on large datasets and wanted to automate your reports and dashboard then this it the tool. They have lot of features and options that are not available in other visualization tools which I have used are oracle DVD, Crystal reports, Excel, SAS, power BI .

A very useful tool - but maybe outsource the report creation

  • July 20, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We have a lot of sales who can't or don't like to pull data for themselves. Tableau is a great option to push data to a large amount of people in a user friendly way. There is also a ton of flexibility in the capabilities of the reporting.
What do you dislike about the product?
Tableau reports take some skill to create - no everyone has the time to hone these skills. We outsourced the report creating to a vendor and have been very happy with what they've created
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sales Reporting and Quota comparisons. We will most likely expand into other areas of the business. It has been good for saving time.

Great user interface. Tableau is the next big thing

  • July 20, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The interface is great. Very easy to use. Tableau lets you make charts and dashboards quickly. These things used to take so much time in powerpoint and other tools. There are so many features that no one I know can say that he has a complete grip of everything that Tableau can do. We can also use Zip-terr files to plot maps.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing much dislike really. They also have a public desktop version for free use.
It can improve on the data import part though. The version with used had a bit of a complex system of importing data
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Business intelligence.
We created analysis charts of sample distribution for a pharma client. Plotted the locations of the physicians on the US Maps.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
A definite go-to tool. Tableau desktop helps in making much more elaborate, end to end analyses without much clutter.
