ROI

Sentiment score
6.3
Panorama Necto impressed with features like predictive analytics and collaboration, reducing costs and enhancing mobile accessibility despite a learning curve.
Sentiment score
7.1
Users see fast returns with Tableau, noting time savings and efficiency, though initial costs and adoption can be challenging.
This saves a significant amount of time, particularly for reports that would have needed around fifty people.
The ROI of using Tableau extends to its seamless integration across various platforms, as it's from Salesforce and thus not limited to any specific cloud provider.
Tableau is saving me time, money, and resources, which I would rate as ten.

Panorama Necto's customer service and technical support are generally rated highly, despite lacking in-person training and online chat.
Sentiment score
7.1
Tableau's customer service is generally rated positively, but response time and effectiveness can vary by region and support package.
They provide quick email and phone responses and have Thai-speaking personnel.
There should be consistent standards for all users.
The technical support for Tableau is quite good.

Panorama Necto generally scales well, though some users face challenges with large datasets and performance with Big Data.
Sentiment score
6.7
Tableau is highly scalable, flexible, and integrates well but may face performance issues and license cost concerns.

Tableau is easy to scale.
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
7.7
Panorama Necto is stable and reliable, with minor slowness and potential cloud issues likely due to network setups.
Sentiment score
7.3
Tableau is stable but may face issues with large data sets, updates, and network infrastructure, usually resolved by support.
The application hangs after continuous use due to the buildup of cache.
I rate the stability a five or six because Tableau updates very often with new versions or patches.
 

Room For Improvement

Panorama Necto requires UI simplification, improved multilingual and analytics integration, better support, compatibility, and streamlined processes with large datasets.
Tableau struggles with cost, complexity, performance, and integration, needing better analytics, interoperability, and more user-friendly features.
We cannot send the entire Excel file reports via email within Tableau.
The product owner should enhance its benefits or clarify its role.
It sometimes requires extensive investigation to determine why the data does not appear correctly.
 

Setup Cost

Panorama Necto offers competitive pricing and trial options, making it a top-value choice for enterprise business intelligence tools.
Enterprise buyers should weigh Tableau's pricing models and costs against its features, ROI, and competitors like Power BI.
Power BI as a much cheaper alternative.
A license for 150 users costs around $17,000 USD per year.
Looker is known to be quite expensive.
 

Valuable Features

Panorama Necto excels in collaboration, visualization, and offers customizable infographics, integration with Microsoft, and intuitive decision-making tools.
Tableau provides intuitive data visualization, seamless integration, and scalability, enabling easy report creation and insightful decision-making with minimal IT support.
A significant feature for me is the real-time connection to data sources because it effectively manages large data sets.
Tableau serves as a stable dashboarding tool for higher management, aiding in quick decision-making.
Building hyper extracts and visualization capabilities make Tableau a robust tool for data analysis.

Real-time data connection enhances workflow and decision-making process
An area for improvement in Tableau is the Explorer license type. It is not as useful, and the product owner should enhance its benefits or clarify its role. Additionally, the frequent updates with many versions available for download can be confusing and could affect stability. They should avoid providing access to older versions on their website.

For SQL Server Analysis Services cubes you might consider Yellowfin BI or Zap Technology. Zap is very specific to SSAS. Yellowfin can access SSAS cubes as well as relational sources.
