Better with every update
What do you like best about the product?
I love that Tableau can integrate with so many different platforms/APIs.
What do you dislike about the product?
The ability to white label Tableau is a bit difficult and sometimes looks sloppy. I wish there was a template of sorts to customize the worksheets instead of just inserting an image and changing the background.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I mainly use tableau for website KPI performance. Anywhere from e-commerce to visits to keyword performance.

Sometimes it's extremely latent and slow to update.

Tableau Analytics Platform Review
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of displaying data in all sorts of methods. Very easy to toggle back and forth between tables and charts.
What do you dislike about the product?
Could be slow at times. Need to increase the speed of the tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using the tool to analyze different trends in our current business and then make predictions and goals towards this.
Relatively easy to learn solution balanced with enough complexity for customization.
What do you like best about the product?
Love the ability to easily join data sources and blend - we are big SFDC users, but like most companies, we have important data like sales quota ramps, start/promotion dates, product usage data etc. that lives outside of SFDC. You don't need to know how to data-warehouse, and can use Tableau to create custom data sources with scheduled refreshes. I also love how easy it is to build some complex calculations that just aren't feasible in other solutions. Lastly, the best thing about Tableau is the community - some of the brightest people in the business collaborating to find great solutions to tough problems that sometimes aren't solved by the product as-is.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be tough to pinpoint what is causing certain reports or visualizations to run slower than others. Most of the times it's the size of the underlying data source, but in addition the number of queries and tables/charts you are building into a visualization adds to that lag time. I'd also like a better way to drill down on certain charts or tables - currently I use workarounds with hidden tables which populate if a certain part of a chart is selected for example. The reason for doing this is because some of our SFDC tables have hundreds of columns and clicking to see the underlying data takes forever. I'd like a better way to select the specific columns I want to serve up in a drill-down window and have that functionality built into a visualization. Lastly, working with dates in Tableau can be a bit tricky, especially when you want to do any sort of trended weekly analysis over multiple years. There are workarounds for this, but definitely would like to see some improvement in the product in this area in general.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Initially, mostly sales and marketing intelligence, but that has evolved into a full 360 degree view of our business which includes things like product usage and customer firmographic data. What products do we sell well now? Who should our ideal customer profile be? What are signs of a customer who is at risk to churn?
Using Tableau we have been able to combine our SFDC Opportunity and Account data with our back-end customer usage data. We've also been able to use cohort analyses to figure out what our average ramp time is for a new sales rep.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure you have clearly defined who needs licenses and who does not. Tableau Server works best when you can share content with people in their web application. Also, Tableau uses an in-memory database to get good performance, and needs more CPUs to service multiple concurrent users, so if you are skimping on memory vs. their recommended specs you are not going to have a good experience. Carefully read their tech specs for production vs. prototyping/trialing:
