Salesforce - Good Quality, Easy To Navigate, Effective Tracker

  • November 04, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I use salesforce for business development, therefore salesforce is a great way to keep track of your live opportunities and understand why some opps are lost.

It is a good tool for creating reports which can be used as a base of information to plan your next development strategy.
What do you dislike about the product?
I am actually not a fan of the new lighting experience that Saleforce offers. I always go back to salesforce classic, maybe it is just me however, I think that the information is displayed clearer in the classic version.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Saleforce as a tracker and a tool to help me analyse future strategies or methods of working. Like mentioned above the reporting tool is very helpful when formulating an new approach to your method of working.

Handy tool!

  • October 31, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Tableau desktop is simple and easy to navigate. The interface is user friendly and it has appealing dashboards. It is known for its remarkable visual image capabilities. The drag and drop feature is great and could be utilize to create graphs and other diagrams within minutes. Its overall performance is secure and reliable. The mobile app is well designed and enables its users to have their statistics at their fingertips.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is expensive and the pricing plans are not flexible. Despite of being easy, it has a steep learning curve. Once the training is done, it will do wonders for you with your visual work. The BI capabilities could use a little improvement.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is good for large sized organisations with sufficient funding in data visualizations as tonnes of data could be handled within minutes and analyse through graphs and statistics. For small to medium sized organizations, it might prove to be expensive.

Rich and quick Visualizations

  • October 31, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Tableau has been a game changer in BI landscape since last few years. It can create reports on the fly within minutes with rich and elegant user interface along with the dashboards as well.

The thing I like most is the variety of the input data sources that tableau allows. There are about at least 50 data sources to choose from. Tableau has so many types of charts that it can represent almost any kind of data. There are lot more customizations to make own type of chart.

Tableau is exceptionally easy to pickup and has a gentle learning curve. One can easily watch few YouTube videos to get started. Although to master it you need to have deep knowledge. It is like easy to learn and hard to master. Also
What do you dislike about the product?
There are not much options to write the data back to database.
Some of the functions are bit hard to master
The pricing seems to be too high.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are analyzing data of about 100 thousand rows and tableau is pretty fast in doing it with such a large dataset. We were able to discover lot many hidden patterns in our dataset because of variety of charts.

The best viz you can build

  • October 30, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I've been using this tool for three years. It always caught my attention on how simple and easy it is to use. It is very useful for those people who do not want to go through so much code to visually display some kind of information.
What I like most about Tableau is the variety of ways you can show your information indicating whether your information is categorical (blue pills) or numerical (green pills).
What do you dislike about the product?
Basically, Tableau suffers from not being able to create table-type visualizations that the normal user would expect. In addition, it is very difficult for certain users to have highly customized visualizations, such as, for example, with colored headers, or several icons or shapes within a table, something that any other tool can do in a simpler way. I don't like Tableau being very simple and not being able to do those kinds of things.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Basically in my work as a Business Intelligence Analyst, we focus on providing solutions from a lot of information we receive.
Tableau helps us create visualizations and dashboards that the end-user will use and from which to make important decisions for a company's future.
In addition, tableau helps us to know quickly the information we have, it can be connected to many sources and that has many advantages.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Expect a tool with a not-so-steep learning curve, which will work and can quickly provide insights of your data.
