I mainly use Tableau for sales and inventory purposes. Additionally, I have dashboards that show performance, and I utilize it for making reports on the database in one of the companies I work with.

Excellent data viz tool

How easy it is to turn big data into insights and the customization available.
What do you dislike about the product?
If exact dates are required in the view you have to click twice, once to convert to exact date and again to convert to discrete. Level of detail calculations are challenging to work with. Lastly, the limitations presented by blending when trying to create calculated fields. Certain calculations are invalid when using fields from various sources.

TC 25 Review
What do you like best about the product?
I love the creative aspect to tableau. It’s wonderful to have a creative outlet in a data growing world
What do you dislike about the product?
Does not take into account the day to day average user.
- Minimal server display instead of spelling out buttons (icon vs text)
- no download to csv yet!
- no subscription with csv
- no “reset button” the developer can embed into the dash so the user doesn’t have to search for the icon on server
I have to spend additional time making my dashboards more accessible so that everyone is capable of usage

Reduce time by automating reports
Connecting data sources with simplicity, yet finding features remains a challenge
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
The ease of connecting Tableau to data sources and manipulating the data is quite good and straightforward. Additionally, the ability to present data is very effective, providing great impact and good online information.
What needs improvement?
Tableau could be more intuitive. It has all the features, but it is difficult to find them. When I want to use or present something in a certain way, it's hard to locate the necessary features. However, with some help, I can eventually find them.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Tableau for about five or six years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Tableau is pretty stable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
I wouldn't say Tableau is one hundred percent scalable, but it is quite scalable.
How are customer service and support?
I have not used Salesforce customer support.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I have used Qlik Sense as another client works with it, so I have had reporting using their tools as well. However, I don't know enough of Qlik Sense to make a comparison.
How was the initial setup?
The installation of Tableau is pretty straightforward.
What about the implementation team?
I usually do the installation myself and do not require others.
What was our ROI?
Tableau is able to save up to ten to twenty percent of expenses.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
Tableau is on the high end and could have been more affordable. I would rate the price as around five out of ten.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I have used Qlik Sense but cannot comment on the differences with Tableau.
What other advice do I have?
I rate my overall experience with Tableau as a seven out of ten.
Gets the job done better than most.

Easier platform to create advanced calculations and aggregate data vs directly from query.
