Steep Learning Curve with Incredible Payoff
What do you like best about the product?
The online community is incredibly knowledgeable, and most, if not all, questions can be answered through online resources, forums, or official help articles.
Dashboard and report creation is also a huge plus, as there is a level of customization and flexibility unusual for similar software.

What do you dislike about the product?
Tableau does an excellent job of marketing its cloud version, but most formatting and advanced visual settings are only available in the desktop version.
Additionally, their training is a paid subscription; they don't have free options like their sister company Salesforce's "Trailhead." It feels outdated and focuses entirely on the desktop version- not the cloud.

When connected with Server for data, Tableau Desktop keeps on popping up annoying message to connect with the dataset just after a short inactivity. It is sometimes not possible to work on Tableau Desktop when there are many Datasets joined. The workaround is to close the window and restart again.

Great tool with a long learning curve
What do you like best about the product?
Is a fantastic tool for describing data and creating nice graphs.

With Tableau, users can quickly and easily explore their data to identify patterns and trends, and then create customized graphs and charts to communicate their findings.

The quality of the exported images is not great. If you want to use the graphs from Tableau, you need to use additional software to improve the quality for publication. The learning curve for data manipulation is huge; people with short time might be unable to learn how to do calculation fields, for example.

Tableau Server Review
What do you like best about the product?
Tableau makes data visualizations very easy. We use it to produce our sales deliverables and drive new business
What do you dislike about the product?
The load times on complex workbooks can be very long. Often i will lose updates if i don't save frequently as tableau will refresh randomly

We produce savings analysis reports for our sales team. We also use tableau to produce quarterly business reports for current clients.
Tableau is great for Power Users, but not the best option for End User 'self service'
What do you like best about the product?
Tableau is a robust analytics solution that integrates well within the Enterprise and can connect to numerous data sources. Deploying content from Tableau Desktop to Tableau Server is a straightforward process, and the web interface of Tableau Server does offer some edit capabilities.
What do you dislike about the product?
The workbook authoring process allows for creating very sophisticated reports; the issue is that it can be very daunting for end users to develop their analyses to answer ad-hoc questions. There are easier-to-use end-user solutions if self-service is a huge requirement.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tableau allows us to visualize data coming from various systems, like databases and CRM, and meaningfully present the data to end users. The embeddability of Tableau enables the Tableau content to be accessed through our Analytics Catalog which serves as the way that our users access all analytics.
