### "Integrative dash boarding that clearly displays data "

March 8, 2018

4.0

Ease of creating dashboards that provide graphs and displays that would be otherwise difficult or improbably to create manually. Quick and efficient deep dives into complicated data.

Pros

Integrative data reporting which allows me to display data in new and effective ways. Various graphs and functionality allows deeper dives into data.

Cons

Like any software of this sort, manipulating data once uploaded can be complicated. Some of the graphs didn't work as well as intended.

### "Robust tool that makes it easy to become data savvy"

November 21, 2019

4.0

Overall great product with excellent capabilities and customer support.

Pros

The tool is extremely mobile-friendly with responsive design, which makes it convenient to access data and visualizations on the go.

Cons

It's not terribly cost-effective for individuals, more useful for companies and larger organizations. It's also hard to connect the platform to an actual database, if your data isn't already in excel.

### "Data presented well"

July 25, 2021

4.0

Pros

I have used only the public version, but it allows you to upload data into the platform and manipulate the fields for some pretty cool data visualizations. Simple to use for simple presentations.

Cons

The public version doesn’t allow you to save your work outside of the platform. Lots of advanced features that are not easy to understand or use.

### "Tableau - Best in business with a lot of options"

February 5, 2019

4.0

Happy with Tableau, however, it should be made easier for any sort of integration.

Pros

Love the fact that Tableau can convert my data into a lot of forms of tables and graphs. Really helps me with any presentation I want to give.

Cons

At times, find it very difficult to change the data pivot.

### "Very interactive tool for data visualization"

March 2, 2019

5.0

Great visualization tool but needs some time for training

Pros

You can drag and drop the item to add them to your report. The visualization looks really good (compare to Power BI from Microsoft) Can connect data from everywhere (Excel file, SQL server, etc) Various type of charts and great for story telling

Cons

There are a lot of functions and fresh users might take some time to have a grasp of it.

### "Tableau is as good as Google Analytics"

April 11, 2020

5.0

It was really easy to get set up, and it pulls data that GA can't always get.

Pros

I really love how detailed the graphs are for your particular analytics data set. It also is easy to use. I used this in a previous job. The pricing for Tableau is very reasonable.

Cons

I really can't find anything negative about Tableau. I feel like it will be the go-to source for analytics in the near future.

### "View and Manage Data"

July 17, 2019

5.0

Pros

Tableau is great for converting your data into a more manageable, user friendly and visual source. You can create numerous charts, graphs and other visual tools for whatever your needs are. You can also import info from a wide variety of sources. If you present data often, this becomes a valuable tool.

Cons

The learning curve is a little steep. If you are a beginner, be prepared to run into a few roadblocks while creating the information you need.

### "Powerful Data Visualization"

December 5, 2017

5.0

Pros

Tableau is much more dynamic than alternative reporting tools such as Salesforce reports/dashboards. There are endless opportunities to manipulate data through formulas, visualize in animation, and tell a customized story.

Cons

Connectivity to existing databases is complex and strenuous on systems. Our integration with Marketo takes 2+ hours to feed data into it each time we open tableau and causes enormous setbacks in reporting capabilities.

### "Interactive Data analysis & Visualization"

January 7, 2021

5.0

Without any prior training to the management they were able to understand all the charts and how they can make the next business decisions based on it.

Pros

Easy integration with existing data sources and nice charts analyzing all the data. Any one can understand without any prior training on the analyzed charts.

Cons

Some times there are performance issues in importing huge data sets. Also it is a bit expensive for a data analyzing tool.

### "Powerful Analytics, But Some Bugs"

September 15, 2018

4.0

Definitely recommended because it is the best software out there. However, if you are transitioning from Excel, and are a small company, you might want to consider Microsoft's Power BI.

Pros

Tableau is simple to learn and use. There are plenty of articles and videos available. Tableau is also full of useful features.

Cons

There are bugs here and there in the software. The software is not perfect, but the Tableau team keeps rectifying these bugs. There is no monthly subscription plan.

November 11, 2014

4.5

Pros

Tableau has super easy configuration for your data. From the standard Bar, Line, and Pie charts to the more colorful and novel Bubble, Heat map, Treemap, and Box-and-whisker plots, Tableau organizes data in surprisingly simple and enjoyable views.

Cons

There isn't much I dislike at this point. I'm currently outputting some visualizations of some predictive, multivariate analyses from SPSS and some machine learning results from BigML.

### "Need a Business Analyst/Front-end developer"

January 6, 2019

4.0

Love it! What an easy way to pull unique data to show clients or potential partners.

Pros

The ability to pull data from an API and bring it into a software that is as simple to read and analyze as Tableau is amazing.

Cons

You need to have a coder to actually put the information into Tableau which is not as convenient as I would like, but at the same time it isn't surprising.

### "Great data visualization reporting tool"

August 27, 2020

5.0

Overall great data visualization software. We used to build graphs with Excel before switching to Tableau and it used to be a nightmare. Tableau really made my life easier with all different kinds of graphs and reports it can show me to analyze company performance.

Pros

I love using this software for great data visualization. Tableau goes into our company database, can pull any data and present it in a variety ways. It is super easy to visualize what is going on with your company revenue, which way subscriptions are moving, reasons for cancellation, etc. Variety of useful reports using graphs.

Cons

I found building a report in Tableau a little challenging and usually have to contact our system administration for help but overall if you learn a few tricks building reports is not that hard at all.
