Great for Visualizing Data!
What do you like best about the product?
Tableau is super easy to implement and use. I use Tableau often and primarily for data visualization but the managing directors on my team have alternative uses for it when presenting information to clients. It's super easy to get an excel sheet and mine information that hadn't been known before.
What do you dislike about the product?
I really cannot think of things it hasn't been useful. It has almost everything Microsoft BI has and the platform is easier to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tableau is solving errors that generally require a data cleansing step.
Tableau is great and accesible!
What do you like best about the product?
Tableau is a very easy to use tool that is accessible for pretty much anyone that wants to use it.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is no major flaw on Tableau. has the same skill curve as any other BI tool
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Providing BI tools and easier data display.
Top tier BI Tool
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to perform sql like calculations on the fly. This makes it so you don't bog down your sql server with tons of conditions and sub queries.
What do you dislike about the product?
Hard to integrate with Microsoft unlike power BI.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tableau has helped us measure productivity with our doctors and this leads to us setting up incentive programs to reward these providers for their exemplerary work.
Transformative Analytics with Scalability & Robust Support
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate Tableau's narrow learning curve and the vast community that helps with quick fixes. The Tableau Cloud's scalability and its quick customer support are great, and features like Tableau Pulse make it a game changer for me. Additionally, the cost and dedicated customer support, alongside Tableau being the industry leader, reduce the learning curve for new hires. Switching to Tableau Cloud from the server was a cakewalk, which was a huge plus.
What do you dislike about the product?
The bridge architecture for databases in organizational environments is very complex and clumsy to set up. The connection should be more like how cloud databases connect to dashboards, without needing to set up a Tableau Bridge machine. This current setup pools additional resources, is hard to monitor for failures, and adds extra cost.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Tableau for enterprise reporting, CXO-level reporting, and tracking key organizational metrics. It helps with creating enterprise dashboards.
Quick and Easy Visualizations
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use, simple drag and drop builder which helps to build visuals quickly. Cloud connectivity is good and easy. Easy to integarte or import data to tableau. Can be used frequently for small scale to large visualizations. Customer support is good.
What do you dislike about the product?
Initially challenging to learn, also has some permormance and usability limitations. Limited formatting and customizations.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helping in building user freindly visuals, complex calculations by using calculated field features. Easily apply filters to avoid unecessary data.
Presentations for stakeholders.

Good

What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it gets stuck sometimes we lose server
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It used to have the customers data
Consistently confusing and unreliable
What do you like best about the product?
Some great visualisation tools and has strong customisation for getting reports pixel-perfect.
What do you dislike about the product?
I've found the experience of administering and managing a Tableau site to be consistently confusing and opaque. Permissions are not intuitive, it is not clear how data sources should be configured, and the organisation and tagging of content has so much wasted potential.
On top of this, I experience vague error messages almost every day that force to me to recreate reports and data sources from scratch, creating hours of wasted manual work.
There are also still clear limitations to what is possible through the Tableau Online platform: one is left feeling that the web authoring platform was clearly tacked on, and it is not clear when either should used.
For a smaller business or startup the above failings would be acceptable, but I expect a lot more from on of the largest (and most sucessful) technology companies in the world.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Produce reporting and dashboards for all parts of our business.
Effortless data visualization using Tableau
What do you like best about the product?
Drag and drop functionality, easy integration of data sources
What do you dislike about the product?
It is expensive and has some data preparation limitation.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We provide KPI to universities about various facilities such as, admissions, teacher-student statistics, etc.
The best less complex data visualisation tool with drag and drop functionality
What do you like best about the product?
Definitely, I literally liked their drag and drop functionality to create report charts and visualisation. And yeah, connect various data sources for visualisation and making reports
What do you dislike about the product?
I could say versioning. We have literally faced this problem. When we publish reports to the server, we literally can't get the older version of it. And it create so inconvenience. And in this modern era, they could provide auto refreh functionality for reports.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We generally use it for making reports so our support engineers would get lead on the improvements. So we used to convert more technical data into understandable format using reports. I could say we have achieved more than 60% improvements than earlier quality of our products due visualisation techniques
Offers extremely powerful tools for Data vis
What do you like best about the product?
Tableau has some of the best tools for data visualization. Analytics are auto computed based on formulas. The learning curve was present, but it was smoother after learning the usage of software. I once used it for data with 3M records and it just blitzed through it
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes data manipulation and data cleansing is not straightforward and this causes issues where I feel like this should be easier than this.
Also, sharing specific views with stakeholders was diffucult and I would like this process to be more easier

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tableau was mainly used for solving accounting problems at the company I work. They were basically spending way too much money and the stakeholders needed a better way to track costs, especially cloud services spending
