Visual analytics on your laptop

  • May 18, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ease of load a data source! By far, in my career, locating data has always been trickier than visualizing it - with Tableau 10 and VizSQL, you can rapidly explore, visualize, annotate and tell a story to your senior management so that they can act upon it. No other solution has ever been as effective and swift to do so>
What do you dislike about the product?
The fact that Tableau will charge you 20% of your original license to upgrade and carry on support. I can understand upgrade but not support. Support should be endless, this is called Customer Experience. Feels like Customer Ignorance on that scheme.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Digital marketing analytics across several platforms, you can connect to them and aggregate Key Performance Indicators on the fly. Tableau does it, they rule!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Start with Desktop and review Server or Online after 1 year on Desktop+Reader.

Strong for basic dashboarding

  • May 11, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Simplicity, ease of use.

Very good for 90% of visual data needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
Can be made much more visually appealing, a bit of an ugly duckling.

Can be a bit slow with large data samples.

Seems a bit too cookie cutter and from a design-standpoint doesn't adapt to the page or filtering seamlessly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Turning excel data into something digestable.

No longer have to switch between multiple pivot tables and documents to understand campaign performance.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great for most tasks. If you have huge data sets, complex customized needs or need your dashboards to be beautiful, maybe not the perfect choice.

I completely working on my company projects.

Great software that is easy to use and easy to connect to data

  • May 03, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The easy, drag and drop methods to creating sophisticated reports from your data. This software is easy to link to your database live so that you can access updated information every day as opposed to refreshing data. The data visualization is clear and aesthetically pleasing. There are many different charts that are easy to set up and are useful to use in dashboards. The story features is of great use for presentations and for organizing your data in a meaningful way. The trending and forecasting modeling is easy to use and to evaluate. It is easy to extract data from the model information.
What do you dislike about the product?
Working with time series data can take a lot of data cleansing before hand. Also, it can be difficult to make data relationship links that work in the direction of your intended use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Quickly and accurately providing interactive reports. We have realized the benefit of being able to create dashboards quickly for our team to view.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Connect to your data live. This helps keep up to date analysis without having to refresh data manually.

Wave can be difficult to set up if you have a lot of salesforce customizations

  • April 23, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The visual effects are very good and that sold us and our executives.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's not plug and play if you have a lot of customizations in your salesforce instance. If so, make sure you have an administrator or 3rd party consultant who has the analytical experience to set up analytics software.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ability to analyze sales process and deals to improve productivity and pin point areas for improvement
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Check how your salesforce instance is setup before considering Wave. If you have a lot of customizations, hire a 3rd party consultant or go with another product like tableau.

I was shocked by the power of this tool.

  • September 16, 2015
  • Review provided by G2

The application takes very complex sets of data from a variety of different sources, and consolidates them into one easily analyzable view. The program also surprises you with extra capabilities, like the ability to map data to geographic points for a map view.

There is sometimes a disconnect when connecting datasets from Excel or other legacy applications to Tableau.
