A powerfull and complex tool

  • January 11, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The visuals are excellent. Very crisp, clean, and modern. Once the report is built, I like that it can be imbedded to your website.
What do you dislike about the product?
Building the report is often very time consuming and frustrating. When connecting to a data warehouse the dates can't be edited using a filter like when connecting to other data sources. Also, there are ways of creating custom color templates, but this requires some HTML coding. Instead of just saving a color palette.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating reports that are scalable for many different users that come from many different technical backgrounds. We have been able to create custom reports that have modern visuals that are user friendly and easy to perceive action along with creating reports that the objects adjust easily.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make it easier for first time users to connect to data and build their 1st report. It is far above other software out there, but for the price I think the learning curve may scare a lot of people. It would be nice to have a quick report feature that allows you to build common reports similar to those in excel without having to know in-depth know of Tableau. I believe that is what gets people hooked and wanting to know more. Also, the performance on rather large data sets can often take a while to load hindering people from using it the way it is intended.

    Computer Software

Very, Very Informative

  • January 04, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Allows you to create numerous tiles heavily diving into various metrics - that you specify. At least with my company, we had a handful of tableau specialists who would do the dirty work of getting the reports built. Tableau also has some great filtering tools that allows users to drill pretty far down into larger sets of data.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be slightly overwhelming at times - although I think this is dependent on how you design it specifically for each user. Also tends to take a long time to load all information.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tableau allows you to look at the big picture - while also having the ability to drill down into a specific representative on a specific day. This is providing us with the benefit of having one universal tool for everyone to use to look at data, rather than having to build numerous dashboards and reports for everyone.
