Powerful and flexible analytics solution
What do you like best about the product?
The most useful feature of us is the ability to work with very large datasets. I also appreciate that it has comprehensive import/export functionality and live data source connections, including SQL databases, that are fast and reliable.The reports and dashboards are mobile friendly, with good performance. Tableau Desktop is easier to learn and use than Python, but also supports Python and R for more complex calculations or other coding use cases, so it feels like a good mix between being approachable for a wide range of potential users while also having the depth to support power users.
What do you dislike about the product?
Many UI elements when performing analytics or constructing visualizations are not completely intuitive. This may be necessary to provide the more comprehensive functionality of the desktop product, but it does require some investment in training and/or patience with researching user tips as you go. Definitely designed for power users, unless you are only viewing dashboards created by others. Aesthetic options for visualization are somewhat limited, even though the tools themselves are reasonably powerful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Depending on your use case, there are often limited analytics and large dataset visualization capabilities within Excel, which is typically our main workflow tool for quantitative information. Tableau Desktop allows us to create powerful dashboards more quickly and with more features and functionality than other similar tools. Cost is also reasonable compared to competing solutions, with a large installed base and strong user community that helps when learning the product or coming across unforeseen issues.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There is a reasonably generous trial offer, so it's easy to try out if you are unsure that it will be right for your use case.
