Tableau desktop is a great analytics front end and a fantastic presentation layer.
What do you like best about the product?
The best feature of Tableau desktop is the interfacing ability of the tool. The tool could be interfaced with either a relational database or non relational database or NoSQL database. The presentation aspects of the tools like Key performance Indicator metrics, aggregation features, ability to drag and drop, display of the overall report at either daily or monthly level aggregation are all some of the astounding aspects of the tool. Ability to save these individual dashboards is another appealing aspect. Has the ability to connect and analyze Bigdata based dataframework like Hadoop etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI could seem a bit complex to users who have been using other tools like Microstrategy or cognos. At times, the behavior of certain metrics could yield unexplainable anomalies. The drag and drop feature could be confusing at times. The loading of tool pauses at times and the desktop resources take a lot of space.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The tableau desktop is being used as the analytical tool for compiling the reports. These reports are being consolidated and merged to form multiple dashboards for decision making. The ability to present information and metrics in a very appealing and user friendly manner has been quite amicable on business decision making. Tableau desktop is a reliable tool that has been used for the last 2+ years in our organization.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Tableau is one of the great analytical tools used for end-user reporting needs. However, it need not be your only choice. There are many other emerging reporting tools like Looker, Microstrategy etc. Go for a free trial, explore your environment and pick the best analytical tool that serves your needs.

Tableau : Best in class visual interpretation tool

Tableau is a great tool for data interpretation, analytics, and data visualization. Its easy-to-use workflow and built-in features make it a great tool.

Tableau Server Review By Ben S
What do you like best about the product?
After having many stakeholders download Tableau Reader for so long to see a dashboard, it's a far more accessible place to assign certain dashboards to specific groups of people I want to grant access. Plus, viz's can be updated straight from Tableau Desktop and even scheduled.
What do you dislike about the product?
This may be specific to how much data from my company is on the server, but clicking into new pages or tabs can cause the uploading of each view to be somewhat slow/delayed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has made the visualization more accessible to more people. It has taken the load off me to get people to download Tableau Reader from the web and then wait on me to refresh and email a packaged workbook to everyone at a certain cadence.
Data extraction and understanding has now become super easy.
What do you like best about the product?
Visual graphs help in quick fundamental analysis
What do you dislike about the product?
Needs proper training for understanding the dashboard
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Day-to-day analysis id sorted with Tableau Desktop. It saves a lot of manual effort
