Tableau for Intelligence
What do you like best about the product?
Ability to slice and manipulate data in ways that allow decisions makers to succeed. There are many business intelligence tools out there and from top-notch vendors such as Microsoft. Tableau is one that I have found both easy to use, as well as offering a variety of ways to manipulate and extract information from large amounts of data. If you're looking to impress managers, make key decisions, or extract strategic takeaways then Tableau is extremely helpful. It has also helped me develop new KPI's (key performance indicators) that provide valuable insight into the business. It has both impressed managers and allowed for weekly updates with new and updated data.
What do you dislike about the product?
The initial learning curve - finding what you need and linking to external files.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Developing KPI's, charts and tables that aid in decision making and strategic direction. You will notice that there are ways to manipulate and display data that will provide managers to make key decisions. I'd recommend anyone just download the trial and give it a shot.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
At least give it a try. Compare it to you other BI tools.
Easy to use Data Visualization software for beginners
What do you like best about the product?
Tableau is an excellent Data Visualization software which does not requires much training. Anyone can use it with ease, just drag and drop functions to creat bar graphs, pie charts, trend lines etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
The data sets must be prepared in a certain way before it can be used by Tableau as it can not usually work with 2 or 3 dimensional data
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am working in an Operational Excellence team and I use Tableau for reporting KPIs in project management activities.
A tool for visualizing and analyzing your data.
What do you like best about the product?
Tableau offers incredible data visualization tools and the ability to parse massive data-sets in a very limited time. Its support for natural language query is invaluable. It helps people of all skill levels quickly discover actionable insights because they don't have to learn any particular language to get on-board with it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Tableau lacks some statistical functions. While taking the data from multiple sources, it hangs sometimes which sometimes crashes the whole system. It has no support embedded SQL. It is also very expensive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tableau desktop builds charts and graphics that are easy for even non analytical people to understand. It creates really good dashboards. Selecting the fields and metrics is quite easy. We can create the formulas for presenting any variable.

Have Patience!
Very powerful BI tool
What do you like best about the product?
Tableau 2019.2 uses hyper and it can process large volume of data with great speed. The action filter is very handy when you have multi dimensional data and what to filter data by slicing in one of those dimensions and see the result in other dimensions. The calculation field is also very powerful if you want to aggregate your data at different level than the original data set (in combination with level of details).
What do you dislike about the product?
The disadvantage of using tableau compared to other analytical tools like Mode is that it is not that engineering use friendly. It is more complicated to connect to the dataset than Mode and the customized tool like integration of Jupyter Notebook is not supported in Tableau.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
All different kind of business problems that are driven by data. It is a great data visualization tool.
One of the best BI tools
What do you like best about the product?
Tableau is designed in a beginner friendly way. It still has a lot to develop, but the product development team is responsive. When I had a problem, I couldn't find the feature I want on Tableau community, I sent an email to Tableau and a product manager followed up with me to understand the problem I had. That was really good customer experience to me.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some visual features should be more flexible for users to control, esp those that have aesthetic values rather than analytical values.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating nice visuals than using traditional Excel or PowerPoint. I have used the ready made templates wihin Tableau a lot, which made creating basic visuals much faster.
