What do you dislike about the product?
Merging of multiple sheets , it will be good if it is resolved.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Compiling of Complex Data & Presentation purpose
Reduced time spent creating reports and dashboards, easy to work with and offers AI-powered features like automatic prediction
What is our primary use case?
How has it helped my organization?
The biggest benefit is significant time savings in creating reports and dashboards. We now spend less time creating dashboards and reports. It's also very user-friendly and easy to work with.
What is most valuable?
The dashboards are amazing, with different report types and stunning visuals. Most importantly, Tableau's AI with machine learning automatically predicts features and reports based on historical data. These are the three most valuable features for me.
What needs improvement?
Firstly, the high cost of Tableau licenses makes it inaccessible for many mid-scale clients. Secondly, the server requires at least 128GB of RAM, which can be impractical for some systems. We need a dedicated system to use Tableau.
These are the two major challenges I see, especially for smaller organizations. Perhaps introducing lighter options or scaling solutions could be helpful.
Tableau offers some of the best features in the market. Enhancements are always ongoing, and it's already one of the strongest BI tools available.
For how long have I used the solution?
I've been working with Tableau for over five years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Everything seems fine. They provide good materials and articles for updates, so it's not cumbersome. It's quite good, actually.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
It definitely scales well. It's one of the best in the market for that. We have over 300 users in my organization using it.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I use various BI solutions. Primarily, I work with Power BI. We use two services: the server to upload reports and the Power BI Service.
We also use Tableau for one client for reporting, dashboards, and reservations. Additionally, I use SAP Business Objects for reporting purposes.
One of Tableau's big objectives is reporting. It is superior compared to other tools.
For on-premises Power BI, the biggest challenge is it's not fully integrated. We need separate applications and deployments on different machines. That's cumbersome.
With the Tableau server, everyone can share reports on one server, which is much more efficient. Reporting with Tableau is amazing compared to Power BI Desktop.
As for cons, the application size is quite high, and 128 GB of RAM is needed for the Tableau Server so if we need a lighter version of Tableau.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup was not cumbersome, it was straightforward for me. It is like a default application in my system, I was not part of the infra team.
What about the implementation team?
As a user, I haven't encountered much maintenance myself. Infrastructure management manages it.
What was our ROI?
The value for money is definitely there. Tableau is a bit higher side as compared to Power BI services because Microsoft is offering really, very amazing prices. At the organization level, Microsoft provides PowerBI service as a package, and they are offering more than 30% to 60% of their end customer.
But, Tableau is on the same side, cost-wise, Tableau is a bit high.
What other advice do I have?
I would like to recommend Tableau because of the dashboarding, reporting and the features they are providing to end customers. So it is very commendable.
Overall, I would rate the solution an eight out of ten.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
On-premises
One stop solution for beginners as well as choice of experts

The dashboard is not upto the standard and It's not user friednly. For minor task it needed manual works to do, same task some competitors having advantage of automation of this task it leads increasing the manual effort.

Manual Effort of different section of datas validation and Filteration. previously we used lookup studi and Google Sheet to validate the datas which we collected from different campaign, Now with use of Tableau we can visualy validated the datas with help of customsable chart and graph. It helps to make decison quickly and reduce the manual effort.
Robust data visualization platform.
What do you like best about the product?
Tableau's ability to connect to different sources of data has impressed me most. By providing me with native connectors, optimized for different database types and the ability to connect to different file-based data sources like cube, PDFs and spreadsheets, Tableau makes it possible and straight-forward to extract critical insights at scale from data generated from our customers interactions with our services.
What do you dislike about the product?
Tableau has limited offline capability . Also, Tableau is resource intensive and I do not find its data preparation capabilities to be robust enough , especially when I require extensive data cleaning and enrishment. Tableau's performance tend to fall behind that of standard data preparation tools in such cases.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My job role as a product marketing analyst, exposes me to large extensive datasets around market trends, customer behaviour and product performance. I rely on Tableau to efficiently analyze these datasets and extract valuable insights from them. The ability to extract quality insights from day to day generated data using Tableau, has enhanced the quality of decision making across my company.

What do you like best about the product?
You can very quickly and easily put together basic data visualisations. The ability to run on a live datasource connection allows for automation of even fairly complex reporting and the documentation and community is mostly helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
How tableau handles data aggregation and level of detail can be unintuitive, the lack of a FORMAT function makes some tasks more chalenging and how tableau blends data is still a bit unclear to me requiring an extra layer of validation.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy and appealing data visualisation and automatically updating reports.
