What do you dislike about the product?
With a big database can be extremely slow to load

Great Community and Plenty of Data Source Connection Options
What do you like best about the product?
Great community, and lots of data source connection options.
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI could be a bit more intuitive. For example, it would help to be able to access all the different data sources easily from one place, rather than having to switch tabs to view the corresponding data.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have several ad metrics that are easier to track in Tableau, since the data is available in BigQuery. We just need a job to periodically update Tableau’s copy of the data so everything stays current and works as expected.
Powerful Visualization, But Challenging Advanced Features
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Tableau has several prompts or the Show Me button, where I can choose what I want my final chart to look like and only have to add the data it tells me it needs. It makes building in Tableau a lot easier and faster than starting from scratch and is a good way to learn.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like the steep learning curve for advanced features, which feels unreachable for casual users or anyone other than a fully committed data analyst. I have seen drop-downs that have effects on maps in Tableau, and while dynamic workbooks are neat, they require a lot of careful setup. I wish there was a button or trigger to add filters more easily.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Tableau to compile data on day-to-day operations. It solves the problem of inaccessible data by enabling me to visualize it, making it clear what problems or issues need fixing.
Intuitive Visualization, Handles Large Data Well
What do you like best about the product?
I like Tableau's usability. It's easy to use and simple to understand, even for a non-IT person. It can handle large datasets well. I also find that Tableau uses easy words that even a non-tech person can understand. Compared to Power BI, it's better at handling large datasets and works well with metrics like calculated fields.
What do you dislike about the product?
It sometimes slows down while using some charts when handling large datasets. Some charts get stuck when using large datasets, which needs to be adjusted. I do not understand why it gets stuck while using big datasets.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Tableau for data visualization, solving my analytical needs with charts and KPIs. It's easy to use, even for non-IT people, and handles large datasets better than Power BI, especially with metrics like calculated fields.

It can have a steep learning curve, the licensing costs are high, and it tends to struggle when working with larger datasets.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Highly customizable dashboards for executive review.
One-Stop Shop for Seamless Reporting
What do you like best about the product?
I like my Tableau dashboard when I log in, as I can save certain views of my favorite reports. It's great because I can just quickly click favorites and all my reports are there, lined up and named the way I want them. It's easy to click them, and then they populate. Tableau allows me to capture multiple sites on the reports, or I can drill down to select a single site and just get statistics for that one location. I also appreciate how it serves as a one-stop shop for all my reporting needs. It gives my regional managers a dashboard on specific metrics, which they can print, share with store teams, and use to develop action plans aligned with our P and Ls.

At this point, I don’t really have anything I don’t like about Tableau

Extensive Data Connectors Make Tableau a Standout Choice

Tableau has more than 50+ connectors from Microsoft to SAP.
What do you dislike about the product?
Pricing is too high when compared to other peers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it for building charts and dashboards with more than 1 connectors.
Powerful Visuals, Needs Broader ERP Support
What do you like best about the product?
I like using Tableau for reporting executive reports as it allows me to easily track multiple metrics and drill down to the lowest granularity. I appreciate the clickable bubble charts that let me drill down into datasets for insights, removing the need for multiple dashboards since one suffices for high-level reports. The paginated reports make presentations easy without the need to prepare PowerPoint slides. I also find Tableau's presentable and interactive features to be very beneficial.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not all types of ERP are supported, which made it difficult for me to make API connections to certain ERP tools.

I use Tableau to easily track multiple metrics and drill down to the lowest granularity with clickable bubble charts for insights. It eliminates the need for multiple dashboards and PowerPoint presentations, providing presentable and interactive features.
Streamlined Reporting with Flexible Data Integration
What do you like best about the product?
I find Tableau really helpful for creating all kinds of reporting in a single place, which helps reduce a lot of overhead for a single person. It's great that I don't have to go to multiple places for reporting. I also appreciate the user-friendly interface. I like that Tableau supports multiple data connectors, making it flexible to connect with various data sources like Snowflake, Redshift, Databricks, and Data Cloud, which really helps a lot while creating reports. The initial setup was quite easy for me and my team.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that it doesn't have usable templates, which I feel should be there.
