Data analytics for BI
What do you like best about the product?
User friendly. it can create very nice graph and charts and map within a couple of clicks.
What do you dislike about the product?
Complicated data sets joining might cause performance to slow down.
It's hard to tell and understand the join with tableau desktop
Currently, I am connecting to SQL server then after i am making the changes in Desktop, i publish the datasource to server. Additional Changes that i want to make to the datasource and republish sometime does not function correct (did not take the update).

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data cleansing and visualization for BI. Share the datasource and visualization via Tableau server helps with the data standardization and consistency
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a great tool. if you want to launch it at enterprise level - leverage tableau Server. Tableau Desktop can get expensive. But to get started with license it's low cost of entry
Graduate student perspective of using Tableau
What do you like best about the product?
Firstly, tableau has a free downloadable version for the students who want to use their service and their in-depth tutorials give you hands-on experience of working with a tableau.
What do you dislike about the product?
The time series analysis is a bit difficult in the tableau, and date related information would start from Jan 1900 which is annoying for so many users.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I typically use Tableau desktop for performing the exploratory data analysis, and data visualization. Their interface is friendly to use, and their tutorial videos cover most of the functions in the Tableau.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Using Tableau desktop is self-explanatory in most of the cases, and it has a very good community to help and clear out any questions if required. Their tutorial videos are like pretty much hands-on explaining the features of the tableau. It also has a prep version which helps in preparing the data for the data visualization and exploration. This is a very good business intelligence tool to start with.

On the fly BI tool with rich visualizations and Dashboard features
What do you like best about the product?
Tableau has changed the BI world a lot. It has brought in a software, using with business user can create dashboard & reports on the fly and can check what is there inside. It allows the user to read through the data and derive the insights without much technical analysis. First it can connect to any database (I know about 44 database it connects) and you can set the data, slice the data needed for current analysis and then you can do quick reporting. It provide multiple features, like different charts, graphs and tables and mathematical and statistical functions for analysis. Once you have create multiple visuals you can put them onto one dashboard or multiple dashboards into a story and present the same to business
What do you dislike about the product?
Even though it has rich features but it can support the Enterprise BI needs like business object or Cognos does. It does not provide all the feature for E L T (extraction, load and transform) which requires complex transactions. As data gets huge the graphs and charts become unreadable. also, this software is more useful to the business user for personal purpose than company wide reporting etc. The administration part of it needs a lot.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We used Tableau for Visualization BI apart from having Business Objects for reporting. We have created a story for a given subject with all the related information to present to the user. It gives a quick glance on what is happening on the sales of drug for a pharma company that I worked. Migration from non-prod to prod is very easy (unlike other BI tools). Cost of the project reduces a lot with Tableau for BI projects
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Need to bring it more to the people and make some more marking to increase the adaptability
Flashy

The display is very attractive. It makes it easy to present data to others.
What do you dislike about the product?
It was expensive and hard to collaborate with colleagues who don't have a license.

Best tool for story-telling
What do you like best about the product?
It helps to analyze data to create insights that cannot be seen from the data. It helps to build a story for the data and make better business decisions for the stakeholders.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that Tableau that it is not open source. I mean it has trial version but after that we have to pay for it to use it. Atleast, they should've released a open-source version with less functionalities for public use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Any business problems can be solved. Anything problem that has complex data will need visualizations and this tool is best choice for that.
