Intuitive Drag-and-Drop, But Steep Learning Curve
What do you like best about the product?
I like Tableau's drag-and-drop interface, which is excellent for exploratory data analysis, and several features streamline workflows and enhance visualizations. Its ease of use and speed stand out, making it user-friendly. The initial setup was easy and straightforward, allowing me to start working with data quickly. I appreciate the integration with Excel and CSV files, which was smooth and allowed fast data loading, making it easy to visualize large datasets and understand insights clearly. I also value Tableau's strong visualization feature.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like the high total cost of ownership, a steep learning curve for advanced features, and performance issues when working with very large datasets or complex calculations.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Tableau to solve slow analysis problems. Its drag-and-drop interface is excellent for exploratory data analysis. I find the ease of use and speed valuable, along with its strong visualization features and smooth integration with Excel and CSV files.
Powerful visualization tool with a steep but rewarding learning curve
What do you like best about the product?
Tableau's ability to handle massive datasets with ease is its biggest strength. The drag-and-drop interface is intuitive, and the variety of visualization options—from simple bar charts to complex maps—allows for deep storytelling. I particularly value the "Ask Data" feature and the robust community support.
What do you dislike about the product?
The learning curve for complex calculated fields and Level of Detail (LOD) expressions can be quite steep for beginners. Additionally, the licensing cost is high compared to some competitors, and the formatting options for dashboards can sometimes feel a bit rigid and time-consuming to align perfectly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tableau is solving our need for centralized, real-time data visualization across multiple departments. It allows us to consolidate data from various sources into a single source of truth. The benefit is that we’ve moved away from manual, error-prone spreadsheets to automated dashboards that provide immediate insights for stakeholders.
Powerful Visualization Tool with a Learning Curve
What do you like best about the product?
I like Tableau for its ability to create interactive and visually appealing dashboards with ease. The drag-and-drop interface simplifies data analysis without much technical complexity. It handles large datasets smoothly and helps me quickly identify insights, trends, and patterns. Tableau makes data visualization easy by converting raw data into clear charts and reports, which are simple to share with stakeholders. The interactive dashboards are particularly valuable as they allow me to explore data in real time, filter and drill down, and compare data easily without needing multiple reports. This not only saves time but also reduces confusion, making data more accessible and actionable for better decision-making. Additionally, the initial setup of Tableau was fairly easy, with straightforward installation and configuration, and quick connection to common data sources.
What do you dislike about the product?
One area where Tableau could improve is the learning curve for advanced features, especially for new users. Some complex calculations and customizations require time and practice to understand. Also, performance can slow down when working with very large datasets, and the licensing cost may feel high for individual users or small teams. I’ve mainly faced difficulties with advanced calculations and complex dashboard customization, which can be challenging for new or non-technical users. Performance sometimes slows down when handling very large or complex datasets, especially with multiple filters and visuals on a single dashboard. I would also like to see improvements in pricing flexibility and more built-in guidance or tutorials within the tool to help users learn advanced features faster.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Tableau to simplify complex data into visual formats, making insights easy to share. It reduces manual reporting time, speeds up analysis, and enhances decision-making with interactive dashboards, trends identification, and pattern recognition.

What do you like best about the product?
I find Tableau provides a visual and direct path to data preparation, making it simpler and faster to combine, shape, and clean data for analysis. I also appreciate that Tableau allows easy connection of data sources in real-time, which is really convenient. Additionally, I like how Tableau helps the user select the best chart to display the selected measures and dimensions.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some improvements needed in graphs and visualization.

Intuitive and Dynamic, But Struggles with Large Data
What do you like best about the product?
I use Tableau to create dashboards and visualizations based on stakeholder requests. It's easy to use, with a very user-friendly UI, and the learning curve is very small. I can create various types of charts and graphs according to requirements, and the best part is the LOD calculations which help fix data granularity. I also enjoy creating calculated fields and parameters to make the view as dynamic as possible, allowing users to interact with the data. I appreciate how easy it is to maintain and share dashboards since switching from Excel. Scheduling data refreshes and publishing dashboards to company servers for user access is straightforward. The initial setup was very easy too.
What do you dislike about the product?
Data size handling, at live connection if the data is too large then it makes it very difficult to create any views in the workbook. When I connect my workbook with a huge data set, any changes made while creating a view cause it to start recalibrating, which freezes the whole workbook and slows down the view creation process.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Tableau for dynamic dashboards and data visualization. It’s user-friendly with a small learning curve. LOD calculations fix data granularity, and dynamic views help with data extraction. Switching from Excel eased dashboard maintenance, with easy sharing and scheduling of data refreshes.

Visual Data Analysis Made Simple, Yet Challenging for Beginners
What do you like best about the product?
I use Tableau to analyze data and create clear visual reports. It's easy to learn, which helps me to understand faster. I like that it connects easily to Excel and databases, which makes projects faster. Tableau's ease of connecting to Excel and databases saves time and keeps data up to date, allowing me to focus on insights without manual work. We switched to Tableau because it allows for faster analysis and more interactive dashboards. It was easy to install and start connecting to Excel.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some advanced features take time to learn especially for beginners. Beginners may find calculated fields challenging because they involve formulas and aggregation rules. LOD expressions can be confusing as the calculations are performed at a different level of detail. Complex filters can pose challenges because beginners may apply some filters, and the results suddenly change without realizing the context filter.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Tableau to analyze data and create visual reports, quickly understand data through visual charts. It connects easily to Excel and databases, saving time and keeping data up to date, which allows me to focus on insights without manual work.
