What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are transitioning all of the data from my department into Tableau so that it can be stored all in one place and visualized. I work for a university IT department that runs a helpline. Our organization collects data on the individuals that call for help. I am able to use Tableau to analyze the caller demographic data. In doing this I am able to get data-driven answers to questions like "what areas are most in need?", "are there certain populations that seem to be disproportionately impacted by our IT rollouts?", and "are there any trends in this caller data that would suggest we focus our resources on specific issues?".

Powerful data visualization and analysis tool to tell insightful data stories
What do you like best about the product?
There are too many great things about Tableau when compared to its major competitors. The best thing about Tableau is how easy it is to create visualizations and the intuitiveness of the UI. Also, I find the maps feature of Tableau to be way better than other tools like PowerBI. It integrates really easily with data models created in R or Python. The best tool to create interactive dashboards and powerful stories.
What do you dislike about the product?
For one the price is really expensive. It is almost 5 times more expensive than it's biggest competitor - PowerBI. Also, Tableau should provide more options when it comes to predictive analytics within the tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have been using tableau for almost 5 years now both professionally and academically. It has been a boon in terms of how quickly I can create insightful charts with a few clicks. As a student, the free version helped me tremendously in winning many data analytics competitions. Also, professionally I relied heavily on tableau stories for my presentation rather than PPT.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you want a tool that helps you make powerful ad hoc reports and data stories easily then look at Tableau. It is easy to learn and implement with the only drawback being the price per license.
