Provides good scalability, but it could be better in terms of readability

  • July 24, 2023
  • Review provided by PeerSpot

What is our primary use case?

We use Tableau for the dashboard features. It helps us with the global planning of our business.

What is most valuable?

The product has the best features for analytical views and filters. Its integration with Jira helps us prepare intuitive dashboards with filters to share different details of broad-scale planning for a quarter or a year of our business.

What needs improvement?

The product’s router could be better in terms of readability. When we put more information on a single screen, it gets compressed and superimposed in many places while scrolling. It could be improved.

For how long have I used the solution?

We are using the beta version of Tableau.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I rate the product’s stability seven or eight out of ten. I have never seen it crash.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The product’s scalability is good; I rate it a seven or eight out of ten. I have seen many people concurrently using it.

How was the initial setup?

The product is deployed on the cloud. I rate its initial setup process a five or six out of ten. It is difficult because it has complex documentation, and I am still learning it. A team is involved in the implementation. It takes three hours to complete the process.

What other advice do I have?

I advise others to opt for a POC and proceed with the product. I rate it a seven out of ten.

It's not handle DAX and pricing is little bit high.
Calulation are quite complex sometime, can be hard for new person.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Through its user friendly interface and powerful exploration features, tableau enables me to thoroughly comprehend my data. I can associate with different information sources, join information from various stages, and change it into significant perceptions without the requirements for complex coding and SQL Queries. I am able to quickly identify patterns, trends, and outliers thanks to this accessibility, which leads to useful insights.

Very useful tool

What do you like best about the product?
I like best about Tableau that you can generate almost any kind of reports, wether it's individual performances, team performances or the whole company. I also frequently use it get an overview over our reference customers in the specific industries.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's not much that I dislike about tableau. Sometimes the UI is a bit too small when you try to adjust filters on smaller screens like a MacBook. This is only the case for some reports with many different filters.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
There are way more possiblilites to generate reports and get a good overview than you have with the reporting functions of a CRM system. It is also a good way to create transparency in the company

An easy-to-deploy tool that performs well and enables users to create visualizations easily

  • July 18, 2023
  • Review provided by PeerSpot

What is most valuable?

The product’s performance is better than other tools. The working speed is good. Creating visualization on Tableau is somewhat easier than other tools.

What needs improvement?

The product has some limitations. Creating empty extracts is not easy. We faced some issues in the initial phase. Creating extracts side by side with multiple lines is not possible in Tableau. This feature is available in Power BI.

If we want to make any changes to the server, we must have the Administrator role. The product should also allow users with Explorer roles to make these changes.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using the solution for the past three and a half years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The tool is stable.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The tool is scalable. Around 50 people are using the product in our organization. Everyone knows about the product. We have around seven administrators. The number of administrators varies based on the project and tasks.

How are customer service and support?

The technical support is good. I raise a ticket in Tableau Community if I get stuck at any point. I can get the solution easily from the community.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I am also using QuickSight. When we create multiple visualizations and multiple sections using Tableau’s dashboard, the way of executing the visualization is quicker in Tableau compared to other tools. We can pull millions of data and create millions of tables. Apart from the performance issue, compared to other tools, the product provides the best and most advanced features.

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup is easy. The time taken for deployment depends upon the data, the visualization, the types of reports, and the number of cards.

What other advice do I have?

We are also learning to use other tools. It is beneficial to learn Tableau. It will help us in the future. Overall, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
An extensive range of data source connectivity options are available, you can connect relational databases like Mysql, Postgresql, Google Sheets, and Excel sheets and nonrelational databases like MongoDB very easily. Suitable ranges of charts and visuals are available for analysis, and a wide range of statistical models are available for predictive modeling. Real-time data sync happens with the connected data sources. Handles larger datasets very easily in real-time. interactive dashboard can be created very easily.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not many programming options are available for data processing and predictive modeling. The connectivity of the Python driver with Tableau is not present. Offline report access features are not available.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Eliminating the data cleaning and preprocessing part helps in reducing investment for data pipelining, and connectivity with various offline files helps in creating ad-hoc requirements as per business needs. The reports and visualization dashboards help in taking strong strategical action for business growth. Scorecards help in defining the KPI and KRAs of employees across departments to track their performances.
