Data visualization made easy

  • July 31, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Tableau Desktop is great because of the many connection possibilities and how easy and intuitive it is to visualize data. Furthermore it provides a great way to apply functions on data.
What do you dislike about the product?
When you never used BI Tools like Tableau, you have at first some difficulties to get started. But after some time it gets really easy.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Analysis of Sales and Marketing. Tableau shows it full strength when the data flows in the background are completely automated.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take care of your data. When the quality and automation in your data flows is bad, Tableau is not going to be that much of help. Tableau is also not an ETL tool, keep that in mind.

Just an Awesome tool for data visualization !

  • July 30, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The best part about tableau is its Accessibility to data sets directly which makes it super user friendly for the people who are new to the world of data analytics. Another thing which is really cool is its Heat mapping chart type which is one of the best visualization factor for sensing the data.
What do you dislike about the product?
Only one thing which i could think of as a con is that Tableau doesn't offer functionality to do traditional production type reporting. You can’t create static layouts or data tables and it doesn’t offer features related to distribution, or scheduling and notification of reports.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tableau has given our business users the ability to perform fairly complex data visualization in a very intuitive, drag and drop manner. Its data visualization is also impressively interactive. The user can highlight sections and drill-down into charts without extensive skills or assistance from IT.

  • Review provided by G2

All my databases in one place

  • July 26, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
This tool assists me in quickly and reliably presenting all the data we have in one or several databases used in the company. We present it to the bosses through dashboards in a friendly and easy-to-understand manner using graphics, calendars, maps, among others. The data is analyzed with global filters that are very useful, and they can be viewed from your desktop computer, as well as from cell phones and tablets, just by sharing a link.
What do you dislike about the product?
If I have several applications open on the computer, it can often get a little slow, sometimes when I'm making changes to the Dashoboards and I give it to save data and it gives an error which does not allow me to make the changes I want, which implies new the task.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Tableau, the company has managed to reduce working time when making presentations and reports that show the statistical data required to know in real time for decision making, as it connects with several local files with text formats (*.txt, *.csv, *.tsv, *.tab), as well as Google Sheets, Excel, and Access files. Tableau Public can also connect with statistical software files such as SAS, SPSS (*.sav), and R. It allows you to collect scattered information, it is an intelligent platform, and the best thing is that it is constantly updated.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is an easy-to-use tool that helps you reduce the company's costs and increase profits. It assists you in a quick and easy way to make company decisions. Tableau adapts very well for both large and small companies. It is a Business Intelligence platform that is growing at an enormous speed.

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's very easy to use, with incredibly robust capabilities.
What do you dislike about the product?
The customer service team doesn't respond as quickly as we'd like, especially when we're under the gun to get reports done.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're better able to align all of our internal teams around sales & marketing progress.
