Real-time dashboards have transformed our contact center decisions and performance management
If I talk about features or aspects that need improvement, the first concern is information overload and dashboard clutter. The biggest complaint I hear is that the dashboard contains so much data that new users often feel overwhelmed. Even though it is rated eight out of ten for data discovery, users suggest better ways to hide or filter metrics until needed. Best practices suggest that successful teams start with three to four KPIs on their wallboard and then add more later. Another improvement users wish for is audio alerts; they want sound notifications when calls hit a queue or SLA drops. Currently, it is visual-only, necessitating constant screen monitoring, which can be a gap for busy supervisors. Third, the interactive data visualization layer scores eight out of ten, but users request more interactive charts. Currently, it is clean and efficient, yet lacks the drag-and-drop explorability of Tableau or Domo. Additionally, there is mention of enterprise scalability; eMite users state that while it is well-suited for small to mid-scale companies, it struggles with large companies that have huge data volumes, often resulting in performance issues and dashboard load complications. The mobile app is another area of improvement; while it is good, some users request more admin controls via mobile, as it is currently better for viewing and drill-down rather than configuration changes. Lastly, the learning curve for custom KPIs also needs attention. Regarding additional needed improvements, the custom KPIs feature is a strength but setting them up is not plug-and-play. Non-analyst users sometimes require assistance from the IT data team to construct formulas. Furthermore, the alert system is the most common request, with users desiring configuration for audio alerts and push notifications when queues exceed a certain number of calls, SLAs drop below a specific percentage, or when agents are not ready for too long. Currently, it is visual-only, causing supervisors to potentially miss spikes if they momentarily look away from the wallboard. Additionally, customizing dashboards for non-technical users presents challenges; while the drill-down feature is powerful, building custom dashboards and KPIs involves a learning curve. Teams seek more drag-and-drop widgets and templates; at present, IT data folks typically need to set this up and then hand it off.

Centralized dashboards have transformed workforce trend analysis and speed up decisions
Tableau Enterprise helps us to consolidate the data and visualize daily and weekly trends in a clear and centralized dashboard, offering powerful features such as interactive dashboards, real-time data refreshing, advanced visual analytics, role-based access control, secure data, and seamless interaction with multiple data sources and automated reports. This will help us to analyze trends and collaborate across teams and scale analytics across the organization. These features help my team specifically by centralizing all employees' data in one place. This helps us reduce manual tracking and gives us real-time visibility into work from home versus office trends. The interactive dashboards allow quick decision-making, and the automated refresh time saves us a lot, while role-based access ensures data is shared securely with the right stakeholders. Tableau Enterprise has had a strong positive impact on our organization by improving data visibility, speeding up decision-making, and managing reports efficiently. The team can now access and track trends more effectively, and collaboration has improved using interactive dashboards. Overall, it has enhanced effectiveness and fostered a data-driven culture across the organization. The specific outcomes showing this positive impact include speeding up decision-making, which is the biggest impact because it saves us more time. Reporting time actually reduces sequentially since the dashboards refresh automatically. Data security is stronger, and data accuracy has improved, thanks to a centralized data source. Decision-making is also much faster since leaders can view real-time impacts instead of waiting for manual entry.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Users state that eMite is designed for real-time querying and personalized views for business and IT, emphasizing that the shift is from reactive to proactive resolution of queue spikes, now fixed in minutes as opposed to discovering them in the next day's report."
"Tableau helps us tell stories with data."
"The ability to make interactive graphs, tables, and maps that can be shared on social media, linked to, or embedded on a website are the most valuable features."
"Everything is user-friendly, and the visualizations are high quality and esthetically pleasing."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of generating management reports on demand, and ease of generating incremental extracts live or work very quickly."
"If you want to analyze data, discover insights, communicate your story with data, or impress your customers with great visualizations, Tableau is by far the best tool."
"Overall, the solution is very user-friendly, with data preparation being very easy and the ease of presenting findings very helpful for end-users to navigate many useful features within the product."
"Its desktop application is a beautifully designed tool - very powerful and intuitive."
"Technical support has been responsive."
 

Cons

"Additionally, there is mention of enterprise scalability; eMite users state that while it is well-suited for small to mid-scale companies, it struggles with large companies that have huge data volumes, often resulting in performance issues and dashboard load complications."
"It's expensive to use at an enterprise level."
"Sales support when we were first engaged with them was minimal."
"We have products like Tableau, Power BI, Cognos, and QlikView in the data visualization segment. Compared to those, Tableau is quite costly."
"To be the best in the market, Tableau has to improve its user interface and also look into developing implementing the best machine learning algorithms."
"The integration and usage of multiple data sources is sometimes not that straightforward."
"It should have more integration with different tools and technologies. Its licensing cost should also be improved."
"Large table reports with many filters (our case was 14 columns, 300K rows, and about 8 quick filters) to narrow the data set – don’t bother! It will be excruciatingly slow even on the server."
"Server scalability and pricing. Tableau was considered but rejected for a large scale in-house analysis and reporting solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It's an annual fee with everything included but it's quite expensive."
"The price could be higher for the quality of software, so they revised the pricing in this version, and I agree with the price for top version. The top version costs about $70 per month, and the price is cheap for the quality."
"The cost of the solution should be improved."
"Tableau's licensing is pretty straightforward and simple."
"For the use and the capability of the software, it's $70 per month, and that is quite inexpensive."
"Tableau can be costly (but this can be indefinable, such as user experience vs. cheaper etc.)"
"Deployment of dashboards to viewers and unit supervisors can be prohibitively expensive."
"I'm using Tableau Public, which is free."
