A very powerful tool
What do you like best about the product?
Flexibility for a wide range of reporting needs. Before Tableau we were primarily using Excel for our quarterly metrics, but Tableau is a much more efficient solution since it saves dashboads layouts
What do you dislike about the product?
It's tricky to track trending data (i.e. annualizing turnover) without a pretty advanced skillset/experience with the product (especially trying to use level of detail expressions).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Tableau for our quarterly and annual HR metrics. We've also found it to be a helpful internal tool to monitor pay equity and other metrics.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take the free trainings and determine ahead of time if it's options are right for your metrics/how much data manipulation you will need to do to make your data Tableau-friendly.

What do you like best about the product?
The best feature of Tableau is the amount of documentation available for new users. I feel that kind of documentation helps everyone to come onboard and try things with a tableau. I have used this software for various projects and never had a problem with any number of datasets. Indeed it is one of the best software for visualization.
What do you dislike about the product?
The thing which does not go well with me for Tableau is the high pricing. For students, it is free up until there i20 period but it is a bit too costly for individuals. Hence, I personally feel they should regulate their pricing structure.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have a dataset for a US pharmaceutical company and we extensively use Tableau for reporting purposes. With Tableau the data connections to different software are so seamless that it makes our jobs as consultants to visualize anything using Tableau. Hence, I recommend all the companies to use Tableau for reporting needs.
