Interactive Dashboards Made Easy with Tableau
What do you like best about the product?
I like how Tableau transforms complex data into clear, interactive visuals with just a few clicks.

I dislike that Tableau can have a steep learning curve for beginners and sometimes struggles with handling very large datasets efficiently.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tableau helps solve the problem of making sense of large, complex datasets by turning them into interactive, visual dashboards — which makes it easier to uncover insights, track performance, and make data-driven decisions quickly. This saves time, improves reporting clarity, and enhances communication with stakeholders.

What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
The best features of Tableau that I admire the most are that it's user-friendly, intuitive, and the visual aspect is impressive.
I have used interactive dashboards for real-time data collaboration, and they are beneficial because they give insight in a way that's visually appealing to the user. The tendency to retain the information is larger than a standard report.
What needs improvement?
I had a thought about how Tableau can be improved regarding the visuals and borders. I had a frustrating time with the borders a few weeks ago. When trying to make them all the same and shade the border, you have to shade all four sides. You cannot create a line per side. It's one of those small nuances where it's all general, and you cannot make specific changes.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have approximately eight years of experience working with Tableau.
What was my experience with deployment of the solution?
I'm a user and did not use an integrator, reseller, or consultant for my deployment, as the people from data architectures are the ones that deploy it. Once everything is set up, I just use it, and I don't have experience setting it up.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The stability of Tableau is pretty good, as I have not encountered anything problematic. What I appreciate about Tableau is that they have updates periodically, and some of those updates are actually quite useful.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Regarding the scalability of Tableau, I think it can scale effectively. It's capable of handling large amounts of data. I haven't encountered any scalability issues, as I haven't worked with data volumes that caused trouble running.
How are customer service and support?
I'm not in a position to fully rate the technical support from Tableau, as I've had limited interaction with them. However, based on my experience, I would rate them a nine. They do respond and are pretty responsive to their clients.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I have substantial experience with solutions in the analytics industry. I was searching for tools because my company was looking for information to compare different options, which led me to the Peer platform. I have experience with Tableau and Power BI, but I don't have Domo experience.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup of Tableau is relatively easy for me, as I've been using Tableau for a while now.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I have experience with the main differences between Tableau and Power BI, and understand the pros and cons between these tools. Generally, the visuals are nicer in Tableau, but there's a wider array of functionalities to choose from in Power BI. That's the main difference, including the formulas.
What other advice do I have?
They're still exploring the primary cloud provider for Tableau, so I'm not sure yet which direction the company plans to take.
I'm not sure if I purchased this solution directly through the AWS marketplace.
I don't normally use Tableau for the analytics capabilities such as ad hoc analysis, as I usually just use Excel for that.
Regarding the price of Tableau that I used to think was expensive, they've changed their pricing model recently. There's no minimum number of viewers that you have to purchase. A company can purchase just a few creator licenses and mostly viewers, so pricing-wise it's competitive. It can compete with solutions Power BI.
On a scale of 1-10, I rate Tableau an 8.
Engagement Metrics under control with Tableau
What do you like best about the product?
Tableau connects and gathers data from a wide variety of sources without putting too much effort into it. Tableau allows us to integrate all data sources into a one environment, where we create real-time visualizations for daily as well as strategic purposes. KPIs are much easier and faster to track.
What do you dislike about the product?
We would like to have an AI-integrated feature that does what we type in words without doing it manually by ourselves.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Tableau to track KPIs, and make use of them by analyzing data, and we do it gathering multiple sources. The interactive and dynmaic dashboards are used by decision makes across our 27 branches in the company. It not only helps to visualize marketing and product metrics but also to understand customer behavior and infer actionable insights.
Tableau Helps Create Helpful Visual Data Depictions
What do you like best about the product?
Tableau is very useful when we need to create visualizations of complex data that otherwise might be difficult to understand or explain. It also helps depict sales and pricing data in a more easily digestible/accessible format, and is rather user friendly and streamlined in terms of UI/UX.
What do you dislike about the product?
The training/introduction to it could have been better from Tableau - most of my FAQ & troubleshooting have been with other users/my coworkers since they often can answer more quickly/efficiently. Tableau could benefit from more clear or robust onboard help.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tableau helps solve the issues surrounding data accessibility and data access for those within the company that do not have a data background. This especially is helpful when we are working cross-functionally, since different teams and team members all have different backgrounds.
