Tableau Reviews

I use this program to visualize the data sets from front-line employees. Primarily, the tool is used for visualizing data. 

We are able to create reports that are more helpful to our front-line employees. They are able to implement decisions much faster.

The friendliness and easy way of using the platform. I think that as a new user it is easy to learn, and really easy and quick to try and learn from mistakes.

Their training. I've been looking for ways in which we can start training more people to it, and it has shown that other platforms have more access to training than Tableau. 

• Creating dashboards to generate value out of data
• Great features and functionalities with customized dashboards
• Very intuitive and massive user support base.

It has helped to save millions by making informed decisions which are data driven. Visualization of data with great efficiency has helped to integrate dashboards across the organization.

• Platform to automate and make user-defined customized dashboards. 
• Very well integrated with other applications which helps to move data from one application to another with much ease.

Sometimes it crashes because of the huge database. This could be fixed so that it works smoothly with large databases.

We have used it for our program correspondence, basically, so how to program report to satisfaction of different programs. It helps us obtain information. We also use it for visualization.

It allows us to basically understand and evaluate our numbers in an expedient manner. It doesn't require us to need a huge number of data bases that we need to manage. This solution sets everything up for us. It has a good ease-of-use.

In the past, we were using several different solutions, and the packages were insufficient for our needs. We used a lot of different software solutions, and extreme Excel, but it wasn't enough for our needs. We were also looking for something that was a bit more user-friendly. 

One of the most valuable features are the different visualizations. It makes it much easier for us to represent what the data is showing. The dashboard is great, and the visualizations are really what we focus on. 

It's as powerful if you know how to use it, so it's made as much as we know how to use it. It's enough, but there's much more of a need to understand what you do to operate the solution. To be able to do more, we need to set it up to do different things. It is fine, but we have not really invested time or people into doing this much.

I would like to be able to set the parameters in a more specific manner. I feel as if it's not a questions of whether the solution is sufficient, it's whether we understand how to use it to the best of its productivity.

It is a stable solution. I think we can use it for a while for a lot of different things. Again, we do not know the full scope of the capabilities. I think we are using it the best we can, but we could find better ways for it to best suit our needs. So, we just need to learn how to use it more efficiently.

The technical support is good. They give solutions to our questions. 

We previously used Microsoft BI.

I was not involved in the initial setup of the solution.

Most people buy software because they know that it will help them do one thing, but they use it a tenth of the potential of what it could be used for. So, if you don't know what that is, you're stuck at ten percent. Be sure to explore the full capabilities of the solution.

The price is competitive. We always consider pricing when considering a new solution. We are a non-profit, and pricing is a huge concern.

We always like to evaluate other products in tandem with what we are using.

When reviewing a possible solution, we always consider:

• Price
• Functionality

I use this solution for healthcare analytics.

Tableau has provided visibility into patterns which I had not previously observed.

The ease of developing visualizations, not just charts and graphs.

• The enterprise features need improvements.
• Improvements in schema security and row/column security need to be made.

The primary use case is more visualization for user interactivity.

• Interactivity
• Fast data access
• The graphs
• Understanding our data better based on the sublevel of data provided. 

We would like a report model, because currently there is no schema that we can create in the tool.

It is a very stable product. It doesn't break.

I am not using the technical support. There is a great Tableau community.

I was not involved in the setup.

Tableau is an expensive solution, though it comes with its advantages.

We are researching for a new solution.

Most important criteria when selecting a product:

• Price and licensing
• Future landscape
• Support.

We use Tableau in my company because we are trying to add another revenue line because we use Quantrix modeler, which is a multi-internal spreadsheet to build our financial models. We had intended to deploy another step of our value chain for our customers, because it is simpler to view the data via Tableau instead of reading across tabs. It's an applet form that can improve the decision-making process.

The most valuable feature is the drag and drop, then the simplicity to build dashboards which allows us to provide more usable data to our customers. In this version of Tableau (the latest version), the most valuable feature is Tableau Prep, which is a useful integration because I can prepare data in simple ways without errors.

I would like them to include the Italian language, even if it's not a problem for me to use English, because the Quantrix modeler is only in English. I can also see there is Portuguese, Japanese, and Chinese, so why not Italian?

It is super stable.

It has a very high scalability.

I have not needed to use technical support.

The initial setup was very simple.

I did the implementation for my company.

The price is good. 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.

I did try another platform, MicroStrategy. I spent one year and several webinars on both companies, Tableau and MicroStrategy. I decided to invest in Tableau because of its simplicity; it's more simple to understand and less complicated than MicroStrategy. With Tableau's infrastructure to build a dashboard, I found the perfect instrument.

I also had interest in QlikView, but it did not fit my requirements.

I am very satisfied with it. I would recommend it.

Most important criteria when selecting a vendor:

• Customer care quality
• The learning instruments provided via webinars and YouTube videos to improve my skills as fast as possible. 

We use it for dashboard designing.

It has improved our organizational departments, like sales, HR, etc.

The most valuable feature is the 3D charting.

They need to improve the bar chart position and width.
