Some great visualisation tools and has strong customisation for getting reports pixel-perfect. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I've found the experience of administering and managing a Tableau site to be consistently confusing and opaque. Permissions are not intuitive, it is not clear how data sources should be configured, and the organisation and tagging of content has so much wasted potential.
On top of this, I experience vague error messages almost every day that force to me to recreate reports and data sources from scratch, creating hours of wasted manual work.
There are also still clear limitations to what is possible through the Tableau Online platform: one is left feeling that the web authoring platform was clearly tacked on, and it is not clear when either should used.
For a smaller business or startup the above failings would be acceptable, but I expect a lot more from on of the largest (and most sucessful) technology companies in the world. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The main dislike about tableau is it's pricing. It's costly compared to other platforms Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Myself , in my current role as controller for finance and IT at LMW Limited, feel that Tableau honestly is one of the best tools I’ve used for data visualization and analytics.
The way it lets you drag and drop elements to build interactive dashboards without writing complex SQL queries is a game changer for both technical and business users.
Although I have used Power BI , Altrix in Earlier companies, Tableau is Way easy and convenent for data visulation, Integration with Database, ERP.
Implemtaion and integration is Quite Smooth and We can ealiy link up larger database to get Dashboards for daily usage.
The interaction with Stakeholders for meeting at regular frequency is much smooter with Tablue wherein you can do real time data crunching, Tabluation and Graphical Display in click of second .
From a functional side, it helps me convert raw data into meaningful insights super fast. The dashboards are not just static but highly interactive, making it conveninet to explore data without needing deep coding skills.
Tableau integrates well with multiple data sources like Excel, databases, and cloud platforms, so I don’t have to worry much about compatibility. I have used in integration with Oracle 10, SAP HANA.
From a tech side, its performance is solid when working with structured data. Query execution and visualization speed is good as long as you optimize your datasets well. And the ability to use calculated fields and LOD expressions gives enough flexibility to perform advanced data analysis.
The only thing is, it does take some time to master if you want to get into deeper analytics, but once you get the hang of it, it’s totally worth it.
Overall, I Think that Tableau bridges the gap between business and technical users very well by making data analysis more accessible to everyone in the organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Being a long time user of Tableau and decision maker in finalisaton and Selection of Tablue, I can say that it is great, but not perfect.
one of the things that frustrates me is its pricing —it’s quite expensive, especially for small businesses. If you need multiple users with full access, costs add up really quick.
The sharing options feel a bit limited compared to other BI tools like power BI, Alteryx that have more open collaboration.
From a technical side of it , performance can slow down when working with very large datasets. If the data source isn’t optimized, queries take longer to load and dashboards lag. Extracting data helps but that’s an extra step that not everyone wants to deal with.
Basic visualizations are easy, but when you get into LOD expressions, table calculations, or complex joins, it’s not as beginner-friendly.
Looking from overall stand point of view, Tableau is powerful but needs better cost flexibility, performance improvements and easier sharing options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

t has a steep learning curve for beginners. Some advanced functionalities require knowledge of scripting or calculated fields, which can be challenging for non-technical users. Additionally, the pricing structure can be expensive for small businesses, and the desktop version lacks some cloud-based collaboration features found in competitors like Power BI.

As the size of data increases the time taken to load the chart or dashboard increases.
