Mapping of analytics hourly refreshes and updates with changes made
Powerful Visualizations, But Lagging in Flexibility and UX
What do you like best about the product?
Tableau excels at transforming large datasets into visually compelling dashboards with minimal ramp-up. The drag-and-drop interface is intuitive once you understand its structure, and its ability to connect to various data sources (Excel, SQL, cloud platforms) makes it a strong BI tool for cross-functional reporting. Visual interactivity (like filters, tooltips, and drilldowns) is very effective for executive-level presentations.
What do you dislike about the product?
It struggles with real-time flexibility and requires significant effort for iterative analysis. Unlike Excel or Power BI, quick ad hoc pivots or complex logic layers often feel constrained or convoluted. The interface can be slow with large datasets, and calculated fields often involve trial and error due to vague error messaging. Tableau Prep isn’t a strong ETL substitute. Licensing costs are also high, especially when scaling across teams.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tableau helps centralize disparate data sources into a single visual layer, making it easier to tell a consistent story across business units. This reduces the manual effort of building charts in Excel and improves reporting velocity to stakeholders. It also provides non-technical users access to self-serve analytics, which cuts down on redundant report requests. However, its value is more in presentation than in data exploration.
Enterprise-Grade BI Tool That Transforms Data into Strategic Decisions
What do you like best about the product?
What I appreciate most about Tableau is its ability to turn raw, complex data into visually compelling, interactive dashboards with ease. Working as a data analyst in a tech-enabled real estate company, I used Tableau to build executive dashboards that pulled real-time data from Google BigQuery and Excel to visualize KPIs like lead conversions, onboarding efficiency, and operational bottlenecks across multiple business verticals.
The drag-and-drop interface makes it approachable for business users, while calculated fields and advanced filtering options provide power and flexibility for more technical analysts. Its integration with numerous cloud platforms—especially Salesforce and Google Sheets—has made data consolidation seamless. We reduced manual reporting time by over 75%, and decision-making became data-driven rather than intuition-based.

We reduced manual reporting time by over 75%, and decision-making became data-driven rather than intuition-based.
What do you dislike about the product?
While Tableau is feature-rich, it can be resource-intensive—especially when handling large datasets (millions of rows) or complex calculated fields. At times, dashboards took several seconds to load despite server optimization. Licensing is also on the higher side, which makes it a less accessible option for startups or smaller teams.
Moreover, although the UI is friendly, the learning curve for mastering calculated fields, LOD expressions, and advanced analytics features can be steep for non-technical users. We had to invest in onboarding and formal training sessions for new team members to ensure proper adoption.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tableau is helping us make faster, data-driven decisions by providing interactive dashboards that consolidate data from multiple sources including Google BigQuery, Excel, and Salesforce. This has significantly reduced manual reporting effort and improved data visibility across departments. Our team can now track KPIs in real-time, detect performance trends, and take corrective action immediately. It has improved cross-functional communication and operational efficiency.
Best Bi application from all
What do you like best about the product?
I was using tableau for last 3 year's and i liked it the most from the other tools like MS bi, amazon quicksight etc. This is the best as we can connect most of the data sources to it and now AI is integrated as we can get help in creation of dashboards. Also pulse is another option which gives insights on the data with inbuilt qns which ee can get into.
What do you dislike about the product?
The cost is somewhat higher, it can't be affordable for most of the companies
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With large sized data we can get a glance look and get to know how the flow works. By the insights we can study/analyse the bunch of data in seconds

This saves time, improves reporting clarity, and enhances communication with stakeholders.
