### "An analytical tool for enterprise data visualization"

May 12, 2019

5.0

Tableau is an analytics tool that allows you to visualize business data and understand them as quickly as possible. It contains a number of integrated data source connectors that you can instantly connect without special coding or implementation.

Pros

After purchasing this tool, we can quickly and efficiently track our all KPI metrics. I mostly appreciate that all data can be dynamically filtered. Other pros: + role management + well designed mobile application

Cons

Whereas I am a designer, I can imagine a much more beautiful user interface based on modern trends.

Pros

Tableau allows us to import large quantities of data and create visualizations. It's easy to share with other members of the team and publish charts.

5.0

I like to use Tableau for data visualization, It's very easy to use and you can learn a lot by using this tool.

### "Unlock the value in your data with Tableau"

October 28, 2016

5.0

Tableau is a remarkable flexible product that lets you explore, analyze, visualise... to discover patterns in any type of data. While some consider their pricing to be expensive given the glut of "competing" BI platforms on the market, Tableau is consistently a leader in the space and ideal for companies who aspire to make their culture more data-driven. They get high merits for scalability (from desktop licenses to hosted solutions), accessibility (you can access your data just about anywhere) and portability (easy to share data amongst teams, connect data from just about any source). All around great choice if it fits your budget.

Pros

Market leading software

Cons

It can be expensive

### "Bad experience with Tableau software and staff"

May 29, 2019

1.0

We were mislead in terms of pricing at the beginning and minimums for embedded were introduced last minute. They are not flexible and don't value customers unless you are enterprise. Even if you are starting out trying to do proof of concept they will still force you to buy 5 explorer licenses. Overall compared to powerbi the product is harder to use, and the service is poor.

Pros

Reporting and dashboard capability using your own database

Cons

Software: 1: High learning curve. Powerbi is easier to learn. 2: Custom charts using phyton / R is not available. 3: Slow 4: Tableau Server is clunky 5: Reports and not dynamic. You have to refresh to source. 6: Formulas are overly complicated. We could figure out simple calcuations 7: Desktop UI is not very friendly in terms of drag and drop Staff: 1: Sales staff are very car salesmen like. Will mislead you at first and introduce last minute minimums for embedded. 2: Support during trial is very limited and you have to figure out a lot of issues on your own.

### "Tableau Collaboration Review"

May 1, 2022

5.0

Pros

I love that I can see files and different collaboration ideas on how to improve my business and I can collaborate with other business owners and see what Ideas for improvements are better. I also like to look at statistics of where things stand and what others have shared in their business growth.

Cons

This software can only be used for reporting and collaboration only and data Files too. I would like for this software to be used for more than just that.

### "Marvelous Experience using this software "

June 1, 2018

5.0

Pros

This software is integrated to analytic language R, which in itself is hard to use, however the interface of this software makes life easier by allowing us to use such integrated features. The visualization capability makes it easy to use statistics! It has a drag and drop data exploration feature, what more could one ask from a BI tool.

Cons

As great as this software is, its still not yet the complete BI solution for an organization. There are other tools that need to used along with this.

### "Better than excel for creating charts for large datasets"

February 12, 2020

5.0

I use it to make charts instead of excel because it is easy to manipulate data.

Pros

I learned about this software in my data analytics class. I found it easy to learn how to use and user-friendly. It can take large amounts of data and create charts and graphs to analyze it. I think it is easier to create charts in Tableau than excel for large datasets.

Cons

I wouldn't use this instead of excel for all aspects of data analysis. For example, in school, I like using excel for pivot tables and regression analysis.

### "Tableau Review"

April 14, 2018

Tableau allows us to look at data in very analytical manner. In clinical trials it is very critical that we analyze data on time and share data on time with different groups. The system can be analyze the data in multiple ways.

### "Amazing, but difficult to use for some reason"

June 1, 2019

5.0

Pros

I love how Tableau generates graphics. It has unparalleled capabilities of visualizing information. I'm not even sure if there is any competitor when it comes to this. Our team has benefited from its interactive and appealing dashboards thus far​ and will continue to use it.

Cons

I've been struggling learning Tableau as opposed to what other people say online. For me, it definitely has a learning curve and it won't get easier until I have a good sense of what's possible and what's not.

### "Can't recommend enough "

October 14, 2018

5.0

Pros

Different people have different ways of processing information . What I like about Tableau is that through its reports each different type of understanding of data is represented .It makes it extremely easy to use (after you know what you are doing ) . I can honestly say that the tool has improved my decision making .

Cons

It can be intimidating for novices at the beginning .It takes a while to learn how to navigate through Tableau. If you handle a lot of data through it ,you'll need to run it through a powerful machine .
