What do you like best about Tableau?

I'm trying to break into data analytics professionally and thought it would be a good idea to take an introductory course on Tableau. I was expecting it to have a steep learning curve but oh boy, was I surprised. The friendly and beautiful user interface was so appealing, the straightforward methods that Tableau provides to join multiple datasets and manipulate them as need, and being able to create beautiful visualizations with only a few clicks (literally, drag and drop!) really took me away. I unfortunately used a free trial of the professional version so I do recommend doing everything on Tableau Public and uploading it so when you decide to get the professional version, you'll have all your work ready to use! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tableau?

Not much! I just wish that my work on professional was easily accessible and not blocked behind a paywall. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Tableau solving and how is that benefiting you?

Providing me with the necessary skillset to become a data professional! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Tableau?

Nice and easy to use reports and dashboard, that are also very simple to setup. They also have a very helpful support team who are on hand to assist with even the smallest queries - I think this does set them apart from others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tableau?

There are certain aspects of the reports that prove tricky, even after consulting support. For example, I am struggling to produce a report of all my clients line by line with the data that I am after. This is however a very small thing that I can workaround. Also, the integrations on offer aren't quite as robust or varied as other similar companies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Tableau solving and how is that benefiting you?

Data and analytics is incredibly important for our business, to track our short and long term business plans, as well as monitoring our clients performance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Tableau?

Tableau allows me to create my own structured data from a lot of unstructured data. The input data is automatically fetched from multiple other platforms as it provides integration with many other software and then compiled by Tableau in an organized manner. Data gets updated daily and it becomes easy to track all my numbers Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tableau?

Sometimes the responsiveness is quite slow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Tableau solving and how is that benefiting you?

Tableau helps in resolving data compilation and analysis. We get a lot of business data from multiple platforms like payments, refunds etc. Tableau allows us to categorize data country wise, daily/weekly/monthly outputs and many other KPIs. It provides us the exact information we need and visual reports can also be generated. We can also limit the data sharing to few people in case the data is confidential. So, its just easy to control the data flow and limit the sharing to required people. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Tableau?

The best part about Tableau is the Seamless Data Integration as it can connect wide range of data sources and most importantly the performance and speed which enables me to analyze big data without any slowdowns and every Tableau user would agree to this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tableau?

The cost is what comes into my head when I first think of Tableau and the collaborations issues as it isn't smooth in the desktop version when cimpared to its competitor Power BI Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Tableau solving and how is that benefiting you?

The key probelms when dealing with data analysis and visulization, I think Tableau handles them seemlessly as it can transform compex data into actionable insights and not only that but also handling large, disparate datasets. I forgot to mention Faster and real time insights. The stuff I have mentioned are just the pixels of a very dynamic picture. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
