Formatting options can be improved.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tableau solves problems like siloed data analysis, manual reporting, and difficulty in visualizing trends across large datasets. It benefits me by enabling quick integration of data from multiple sources, automating reporting processes.
Am making data driven decisions faster and better.
What do you like best about the product?
The variety of chart options available to me as a Tableau user is commendable, plus I am allowed to create my own customized charts.
Tableau is generally intuitive to use for me even in my past, as a beginner user. Tableau connects with key data sources and most importantly, its AI assistant helps me introduce predictive data models into my reports without writing code and even automate the generation of descriptive analysis for workbooks , tables and data sources using conversational prompts.

What do you dislike about the product?
Load time tend to get longer , the larger the volume of data I am processing on Tableau. I dislike having to lose properties of my reports when I export them outside of Tableau, into other data formats.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tableau is the most important software to me for data visualizing and analysis ( data clustering , forecasting ) purposes . With Tableau, I am getting more done with less effort.
Custom visualizations enhance reporting but AI integration needs improvement
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
The solution provides the leverage of having custom visualization and the capability of self-service. I can drag and drop and create reports based on requirements. Data blending comes within self-service, allowing me to generate information.
What needs improvement?
There should be a generated AI feature that can be added to enable me to generate information. The visualizations should be user-friendly and allow for more custom visualizations.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have over six years of experience using the solution.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I would rate the stability as three when comparing it to Tableau and ten being the least stable. So, I consider it to be a seven out of ten in terms of stability issues.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
In terms of scalability, while it is better than PowerView, it is not as good as Cognos or Microsoft Azure.
How are customer service and support?
Customer support is very satisfactory, and I would rate it as eight out of ten.
How would you rate customer service and support?

Tableau is helping me in building reports and custom dashboards that were difficult in building in Alteryx
Effortless experience and easy to use.
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing about tableau that I found to be was its easy to use interface. I started my data analytics journey with tableau and it didn't disappoint. However, it takes a little bit of training and could be a little bit overwhelming. Also, it really makes deep customizations, visualizations and analytics quiet easy. It gets great visuals and real-time analysis. For beginners, this is a go-to thing. One of its best things is that it analyzes data and presets some filters etc to be used. For eg, if you have a very large dataset, it provides you with preset recommendations which can be suitable for visualization. This enhances creativity. It's a great tool for quick and in-depth visualizations. Oh and it offers integration with CRMs and data sources which is another plus point.
What do you dislike about the product?
If you need this for larger purposes, some features can be overwhelming. It also lags a bit when there are too many customizations, and sometimes it adds unnecessary filters which can slow down the whole process. Also, data blending is an issue. To view the tableau in depth visualizations, its necessary to view it on tableau. exporting the visualizations loses the features and arent as accurate. So there is a big collaboration and sharing concern related to it. For a larger industry purpose, there needs to be a huge improvement in spaces of cloud storage, seamless visualizations and ETL pipelines. This actually increases the dependence on third-party apps.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With tableau, connecting and quering literally became simpler because it lets you visualize those connectors and pick-drop quering. Understanding tableau, its structure and storytelling, its connectors got me better perspective on concepts of database and SQL. Like you don't have to know quering to use it but it just works as good, but it does strengthen your concepts. It also makes combining data sources easy. For basic use, you don't need to know heavy ETL pipelining process, which works just as fine for a beginner. It helps with real time analysis and can be customized a lot. It processes lot faster unless there are way too many overly crowded filters. Also in many cases, predictive analysis comes in quiet handy.
Comprehensive Review

Very easy to use, implement, and Integrate with different sources.
I my company formally we use looker studio and then moved to Tableau because of the dashboard and presentation which increases the frequency use of the Software.
