Tableau leaves much to be desired

  • January 25, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It helps keep everything organized in terms of current quarter pipeline, close dates, what stage of the sales cycle we're at, etc...
What do you dislike about the product?
It is extremely slow. Having multiple tabs open makes it near impossible to get something done quickly. A refresh in the middle of a presentation taking 5 minutes is not a good look.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sales organization and forecasting. We have been able to keep forecasting within 10% of the actual end game for our quarter on a consistent basis.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure you have is customized to your needs specifically so you can run reports that make sense for you.

Amazing tool that all companies should use

  • January 25, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Beautiful, user friendly interface for anyone of any level to use. Plenty of database integrations and plenty of tools to slice and dice data as you please.
What do you dislike about the product?
Building out very custom reporting depending on types of data. Some of the pre-determined charts and graphs don't quite cover what we need so would love to see a little more customization on the visual front. Templates for certain types of reports would be nice to use (some sort of auto-create report would be helpful).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The most common challenge is teaching non-technical teams the stories behind our data and how we assess / analyze them. It's hard giving numbers and their fluctuations when people can't SEE them. Tableau is incredible because it draws out the changes and people understand the next steps better.

Tableau Server allows deployment of analytics, sharing, collaboration, and governance

  • January 24, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Tableau Server allows organizations to deploy analytics solutions across the organization. Not only does this empower users to explore and understand the data, but it allows for governance, sharing and collaboration. Tableau Server is easy to setup, maintain, and manage. It can be deployed on premise or in the cloud (such as AWS) and is easily scalable.
What do you dislike about the product?
Tableau continues to extend the capabilities of Server to meet Enterprise needs. The ability to fully govern data sources needs to be more fully implemented. The ability for IT to certify data sources and analytics has been previewed but is not yet fully available as of 10.2. Likewise, the ability to collaborate in a social media like environment is not yet fully realized.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Deployment of analytics, data visualizations, dashboards, self-service BI, and the ability to govern data sources. This allows for enterprise-wide deployment as well as governance by individual departments.,
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Consider the full cycle of analytics and the ease for members of your organization to easily move between steps in the cycle. Tableau Server is a key component in sharing, interacting, and moving back into analysis and discovery.

Tableau Desktop

  • January 24, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The drag and drop feature of creating charts.
What do you dislike about the product?
When I want to add a table from the same database I have been using all along, I have to re-login every time to the database, even with single sign on.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are more aware of trends with regards to server and storage needs. We can anticipate the need for more storage which shortens the time to complete a request for storage.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Easy to set up, easy to use. The online videos make learning a snap.
