Tableau - Great analytics!

  • June 28, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's so easy and intuitive, you can learn it yourself if you have previous training in Excel or other analytics packages. Lots of good training tutorials on the web, too.
What do you dislike about the product?
That I don't know how to use even 40% of what the software is capable of.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Business data analytics >> decision making
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Look at Tableau, but also investigate Wave Analytics, especially if you're using SalesForce.

Lots of data in a managable package

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is a great way to view population data in a way that is more managable and easy to digest.
What do you dislike about the product?
Through no fault of the software, the data can be overwhelming. In fact, my criticism is that there seem to be too many options and that this program could be simplified and made more user friendly this way.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use this software to look at data around population health: ED visits, projected and actual costs, ect.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
A great tool to try out, however, it takes some experimentation and experience to fully benefit from the data.

Great product for data visualization

  • May 31, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ability to perform data visualization at all levels-beginner or quick analysis to advanced analysis where you control and program your own variables and code.
What do you dislike about the product?
The learning curve can be steep if you don't have access to a lot of resources to get started. Training is pretty much necessary to get value out of this product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use this product to analyze our business performance and visualize how our contract vehicles are being utilized by vendors and customers. We can answer complex questions from business lines and leadership and help ensure that we are conducting business efficiently and meeting performance metrics over time. This ultimately ensures we are good stewards of tax payer money.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be sure to take any available training so you can get the most use out of this product. There are a plethora of resources online through Tableau and from users submitting content via discussion boards and youtube. It is imperative you have clean, high quality data or you will not get much out of this product.


    Computer Software

Strong for basic dashboarding

  • May 11, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Simplicity, ease of use.

Very good for 90% of visual data needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
Can be made much more visually appealing, a bit of an ugly duckling.

Can be a bit slow with large data samples.

Seems a bit too cookie cutter and from a design-standpoint doesn't adapt to the page or filtering seamlessly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Turning excel data into something digestable.

No longer have to switch between multiple pivot tables and documents to understand campaign performance.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great for most tasks. If you have huge data sets, complex customized needs or need your dashboards to be beautiful, maybe not the perfect choice.

This product is replacing a different vendors proprietary product and has been nothing but great. We have a large environment and host this in Amazon and the deployment has been smooth and seamless. The end users are very happy with this product and the staggering amount of features in it.
