"Ability to create our own reports."
"In terms of features, everything is good. It is also stable and scalable."
"Its robustness is most valuable. It can handle massive amounts of data quickly. If it's properly configured and tuned, it can handle massive amounts of data very quickly to produce results. That to me is the number one feature."
"Tableau is highly scalable. Now that they've introduced Hyper, you can create an extract of more than 5 million rows in minutes and then do your analysis."
"It has been the best tool to work with from a self-service point of view."
"The data blending capabilities is a huge factor for our team."

"Their technical support can be better. They normally take too long to escalate and resolve a case."
"I would like to see a more user-friendly interface with Microsoft BI."
"Microsoft needs to provide more drivers to connect other data sources in a native way."
"There are some connector-related issues in their MSBA solution."
"I would like to be able to use more predicting data science features without having to use R."
"I'm not overly technical, and so I can't really speak to any shortcomings from a technical standpoint."
"It is too slow. I hope in future it will be a comparable big data tool, such as, for example, Data Lake."
"I'm looking for something that can make it much easier to incorporate Power BI visuals or dashboards into, let's say, Power Apps – custom Power Apps or anything like that. The most important thing would be to seamlessly embed reports in applications. For example, to have buttons that can be navigated through multiple solutions – from Power Apps to Power BI to SharePoint – via links or something like that."
"n the beginning it had it's stability issues, but it became stable."
"Oracle OBIEE could improve the visualizations, such as diagrams, charts, and graphical user interface. Other tools on the market have better graphical visualizations this Oracle OBIEE."
"The solution needs to be easier to scale."
"Oracle OBIEE can improve the ease of use. It is a lot to learn and it could be made easier."
"The documentation in Oracle OBIEE can be more user-friendly."
"BI Server"
"The performance could improve and in a future release, they could provide more virtualization options."
"Its functionality is lacking."
"More integration with Python or something related to machine learning would be a good improvement."
"Maybe the price could be a bit cheaper, especially if you're a personal developer that uses Tableau just to explore smaller data sets and you're not a company or something like that."
"I think Tableau could be improved with cheaper or more flexible licensing, though this is a generic improvement and applies for any product. It would be better if they had more flexible payment and licensing plans so that they could suit small- and mid-sized organizations."
"An advanced type of visualization is a bit tricky to create. It has something called a Calculated field, and that sometimes gets a bit difficult to use when you want to create an advanced type of visualization."
"I would like to have the product be more flexible in terms of creating online shared dashboards."
"The SQL programming functionality needs to be improved."
"Some of our clients are looking for better UI when using Tableau as they often work with this solution directly."
"The charts need to be improved. The drawings and the visualization need to be more accurate."
