Centralized dashboards have transformed workforce trend analysis and speed up decisions
Tableau Enterprise helps us to consolidate the data and visualize daily and weekly trends in a clear and centralized dashboard, offering powerful features such as interactive dashboards, real-time data refreshing, advanced visual analytics, role-based access control, secure data, and seamless interaction with multiple data sources and automated reports. This will help us to analyze trends and collaborate across teams and scale analytics across the organization. These features help my team specifically by centralizing all employees' data in one place. This helps us reduce manual tracking and gives us real-time visibility into work from home versus office trends. The interactive dashboards allow quick decision-making, and the automated refresh time saves us a lot, while role-based access ensures data is shared securely with the right stakeholders. Tableau Enterprise has had a strong positive impact on our organization by improving data visibility, speeding up decision-making, and managing reports efficiently. The team can now access and track trends more effectively, and collaboration has improved using interactive dashboards. Overall, it has enhanced effectiveness and fostered a data-driven culture across the organization. The specific outcomes showing this positive impact include speeding up decision-making, which is the biggest impact because it saves us more time. Reporting time actually reduces sequentially since the dashboards refresh automatically. Data security is stronger, and data accuracy has improved, thanks to a centralized data source. Decision-making is also much faster since leaders can view real-time impacts instead of waiting for manual entry.

I can now create more meaningful charts--radar, donut, pareto, scatter, range, point, boxplot, etc., but it doesn't support Linux or commodity hardware.
* The tool is very easy to use, we got on-premise training from Panorama, within days we were proficient enough to play with the tool. * The customer service is very responsive, they answered our queries. * I saw lot of people complaining about the lack of community forum, but they do have a forum which is quite active. * The tool is extremely easy to use, with a click you can import data and create the visualizations. * The things I like most is it supports variety of charts, I was quite bored with my previous BI tool which mostly supported bar, line and pie charts. I can now create more meaningful charts radar, donut, pareto, scatter, range, point, boxplot, etc.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The UI part is the best, and the end-users can easily get started with Tableau Desktop or Tableau Online because of its user-friendliness."
"We are using the solution to monitor data platforms, which helps us to make forecasts of the use, growth, and disk space."
"It is definitely easy to use, it is intuitive, and more or less, everything can be done from the front end."
"The best features of Tableau include: Freedom of connection: Its ability to connect to practically any database."
"It's very easy to visualize data with this product."
"It is very good for data visualization. It has very powerful visualizations and is easy to use."
"Excellent product: Great visualizers and it is easy to use, allowing insights into business performance issues and providing supporting data for critical policy and operational changes."
"The best feature of Tableau is the usability, as it allows a business user to prototype something without going through IT and spending a lot of time and money trying to translate requirements, rapidly developing things that you need to analyze the data."
"The tool is extremely easy to use, with a click you can import data and create the visualizations."
 

Cons

"Calculations in reports are still tricky."
"Performance is one big area of improvement I believe."
"Maybe the price could be a bit cheaper, especially if you're a personal developer that uses Tableau just to explore smaller data sets and you're not a company or something like that."
"With Tableau, use of an external ETL tool is a must if it’s connected to a data warehouse. It doesn’t really provide the room for complex computing or data transformation."
"The product needs to allow for better ways to drill down more effectively on the information at hand."
"There should be more GIS features, such as location analysis, which is quite limited. There are very few location-based functionalities."
"Lacks machine learning algorithms that you can implement using R, SPSS Modeler, and Python."
"The process of embedding the dashboards on external portals and websites could be improved."
"No support for Linux or commodity hardware. Limited support for big data analytics."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive but it depends on the customer's needs which will determine the cost of the licensing."
"Paying for users you never setup or buying expensive desktop licenses for users who can solve their users with web editing on the server are the two biggest expenses."
"Tableau has reasonable pricing."
"It is more expensive than other solutions."
"Tableau can be costly (but this can be indefinable, such as user experience vs. cheaper etc.)"
"Its price is higher than Power BI and QlikView. Tableau costs around $70 per user per month, whereas Power BI is around $8 to $9. QlikView is around $30. Tableau has various prices for various models such as Creator, Designer."
"Tableau is an expensive solution compared to Power BI."
"We are on an annual license which costs us $1,400 which is very expensive. Microsft BI is less expensive."
