Great for Management and above
What do you like best about the product?
Desktop allows users to the possibility to view dashboards without having to download or refresh extracts. It is a super easy tool that anyone can simply follow links or star their favorites and it will take them right to the dashboard they want.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is an edit on screen but, users with a high access level might see this option and think it is harmless. However, they are actually editing the dashboard. Possibly more insight into what that truly means would be very helpful!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data visualization for the entire organization. This tool gives people from expert analysis to executives the opportunity to have reports at their fingertips. A tool that every organization should utilize!

Great tool to ease Office
What do you like best about the product?
I was sick of opening half a dozen windows and programs to pull leads, track sales and calls, and compare growth. Now it’s all done in one location and is customizable to your needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have had a bit of issues with filtering lists to target certain key factors but I’m sure that’s an easy fix I just need to look!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Consolidation means saving time! When I have less places to look I have more time to call!
Very easy to communicate
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing about this is the fact that it's easy to share dashboard throughout the workplace. We put our dashboards for doctors and other providers to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
I guess this is more from our end, but it takes a long time to upgrade to the latest version.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Just to be able to share info across the spectrum. many times, doctors and providers don't get to see the level of detail in data that we do. Tableau server allows us to do that.
Tableau Review
What do you like best about the product?
Tableau is extremely intuitive and allows anyone from the analyst level to the C-Suite level to develop meaningful insights from data.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the calculations and formulas that are available to a user in Excel are either unavailable or must be formatted differently in Tableau. This takes some getting used to.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have drastically streamlined the amount it takes to complete a data request, resulting in increased awareness of trends and the ability to make business decisions in a timely manner.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Familiarizing your audience with the graphical/user interface of Tableau Server is key. The more comfortable they are with the look and feel, the more willing they will be to trust your analysis and use the product regularly.
Allows others to view your work
What do you like best about the product?
Tableau Server is a helpful platform through which you can publish workbooks (dashboards) to share with others, and depending on permissions, they can download as well. It also lets you link to workbooks if you want another website/page to feature your data visualization.
What do you dislike about the product?
Any edits that are made to a workbook must be saved and re-uploaded, I haven't been able to edit in Tableau Server's site which means you can end up with many copies of a dashboard..
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tableau allows us to share our visualizations/dashboards with clients and receive feedback on our work, while letting them utilize what we've built, without them being able to make edits or change anything.
A good software for integrating data and visualizing it yet not very intuitive to use
What do you like best about the product?
Variety of visualizations. You can get creative .
What do you dislike about the product?
It's not very intuitive. You can't think like you're charting in excel. The new perspective takes time to get used to.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Connecting indicators database to a workbook
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Go through the tutorials
Powerful and Flexible Data Visualization
What do you like best about the product?
Tableau is extraordinarily flexible. You can import data from virtually any source and integrate it with data from virtually any OTHER source and manipulate it into maps, charts, graphs, bubbles, lines, etc...whatever type of tool that makes trends and outliers pop out of the crowd.
What do you dislike about the product?
Like most complex software packages, Tableau isn't very intuitive. But, if you are familiar with Excel Pivot charts, you can kludge your way through. Tableau is expensive! And if you want to share your workbook, you either have to have a Tableau Server ($$$) put it on the public tableau cloud server (privacy concerns) or the person you are sharing with has to have Tableau or a free Tableau reader app. Not a deal breaker, by any means, but not ideal.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tableau is allowing us to move off of obsolete analytics packages and (hopefully) will open up new ways to look at our data. We're able to do all of our analysis via Tableau vs. having to piece things together separately from a few different software packages (e.g. Datamart/Hyperion, Excel, DB2.) We can do it all in one place.
