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.

Data Science Intern at a tech vendor with 5,001-10,000 employees
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 dashboards are amazing, with different report types and stunning visuals. Most importantly, Tableau's AI with machine learning automatically predicts features and reports based on historical data. These are the three most valuable features for me."
"Its dashboarding is the most valuable."
"It is very simple to use for the end-user."
"I would say Tableau is a good product to use for data visualization; I recommend it for that and for data analysis."
"Tableau provides a UI which can be used to build a clear graphical visualization that allows quick and easy data comprehension."
"Overall, the solution is very user-friendly, with data preparation being very easy and the ease of presenting findings very helpful for end-users to navigate many useful features within the product."
"Our company used Cognos Planner and a few other BI solutions before, and Tableau is less expensive and easier to use, making it an easy choice to make the switch."
"Its desktop application is a beautifully designed tool - very powerful and intuitive."
"The tool is extremely easy to use, with a click you can import data and create the visualizations."
 

Cons

"We encountered issues with Tableau 8."
"Tableau is not currently a good database for handling built-in models for data science in order to test, train and run the models."
"I am a BI consultant. I have worked on different reporting tools, such as Power BI and MicroStrategy. As compared to other tools, Tableau lags behind in handling huge enterprise-level data in terms of robust security and the single integrated metadata concept. When we connect to large or very big databases, then performance-wise, I sometimes found Tableau a little bit slow. It can have the single metadata concept like other tools for the reusability of the objects in multiple reports."
"It's already using 32 gigabytes of memory, but the performance is not so good. It's very heavy."
"Carolina Health Systems just adopted Power BI to replace Tableau due to server costs."
"The price of Tableau is too high."
"I’d like more data integration across data sources."
"There is no way to schedule these reports for business users who would like to measure users activity."
"No support for Linux or commodity hardware. Limited support for big data analytics."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is a bit overpriced."
"It is a bit difficult for some people when they hear $70.00 per month, as some solutions are available for less than $10.00 or for free."
"It is reasonable based on what it offers."
"Buy 50 at a time. Project your use base every three months, and project your requirements forward."
"Basically, we prefer a permanent license. A one-time charge is much better."
"The pricing of Tableau should be better to remain competitive in the market, especially when compared to alternatives."
"The price of Tableau could improve. The license is too expensive."
"Tableau is a little cheaper as compared to Power BI and other technologies that we have used in the past. However, if the business users in our organization want to make presentations, Tableau has been asking us to purchase a Tableau Creator license, and $35 per month is expensive for business users. Power BI is giving a free desktop version for business users to connect to any data source and build their own dashboards. That's why we have proposed to use Power BI for most of the business users in our organization."
