Limited Dashboard Flexibility and Scalability Issues
What do you like best about the product?
One thing that tableau does really well is have a very easy to get started UI! It's very easy to integrate into your existing data and build pretty good BI oriented graphics and dashboards.
What do you dislike about the product?
It becomes quite limited once you need to implement multiple datasets, especially when the datasets have a huge volume behind it. The dashboards are also limited compared to other BI oriented software.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When I started at this company we had 2 licensed options for creating dashboards and a volume of work already created within Tableau from previous contracts. I continued using tableau because several users were already set up and integrated into the tool as users but found quickly that it was not robust enough to continue with our more complicated data needs.
Powerful and Reliable Tool for Enterprise-Level Data Visualisation
What do you like best about the product?
Tableau makes data exploration extremely smooth with its intuitive drag-and-drop interface and powerful visualisation capabilities. As a Data Scientist at Accenture, I find it very helpful for quickly converting complex datasets into clear, interactive dashboards. Its integration with multiple enterprise data platforms and ability to handle large volumes of data make it an excellent tool for analytics and client presentations.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes Tableau can become resource-heavy when working with very large datasets, and beginners may find the learning curve slightly steep. The licensing cost is also on the higher side for smaller organisations. However, these downsides don’t affect the overall value it provides for enterprise analytics and storytelling.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tableau helps me simplify complex data analysis by providing fast, interactive visualisations that make it easy to identify trends, patterns, and anomalies. It reduces the time required to prepare insights for clients and internal teams, improving overall decision-making. Tableau also solves the challenge of integrating data from multiple sources, allowing me to build unified dashboards that support business strategy and operational efficiency.

Data discovery has become more intuitive but support still needs improvement
What is our primary use case?
I am an end user customer with Tableau Enterprise, and I am not a partner or reseller, especially with Salesforce.
What is most valuable?
The best features with Tableau Enterprise are about data discovery because it is important. Data discovery is easy. It is easy to diagram different plots and different elements, and it is easy to discover insights about the data.
What needs improvement?
Tableau Enterprise partners could improve support, and it may be important to increase penetration to IT personnel because many engineers or people that use data know Excel or Power BI, but at this moment, many people do not know about Tableau Enterprise. The problem for me is the knowledge about Tableau Enterprise.
Overall, I would score Tableau Enterprise as a product with strong capabilities.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have known Tableau Enterprise for about ten years.
How are customer service and support?
On a scale from zero to ten, I would score Tableau Enterprise support at a two.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
People normally use Power BI and another specific product about health data instead of Tableau Enterprise.
What other advice do I have?
My experience has been as the general manager for IT projects, and at this moment, I have experience in health data, for example, clinical history. I had experience with Tableau Enterprise and SPSS for statistical information, and that is my experience in data. I also have some experience with Power BI sometimes, but my experience is limited regarding the exploitation of the data. I gave this review an overall rating of nine.
