PROS & CONS

What are the best aspects of this product?

The scalability of the program is outstanding. There are a variety of free alternatives for distributing and sharing reports and analysis, and using all of Tableau's products correctly creates unlimited scalability, which is helpful for any business to have immediate business intelligence. This is one of the most powerful components of it. Because of its highly developed intuitiveness, Tableau allows energy companies to have limited access to their employees, traditionally. Because Tableau is simple and intuitive, anyone at any level of the organization can find a reason to use it to improve the understanding of a specific business on a daily basis. Everyone can become a data collector in Tableau.

What aspects are problematic or could work better?

Tableau Desktop is an application that has been in use for many years and has a long history of development. Another area that I would like to see improved was the design. A painter that specializes in formatting, for example, would be helpful when consolidating reports and needing to apply a formatting theme to each part. If it had the ability to be modified, the parameter values would be correct. Providing more versatility in how parameters are used in Tableau will enable users to do much more with the tool and express their analysis more effectively.

What specific problems in your company were solved by this product?

Tableau specializes in performing market research in specific areas. Short, straightforward reports. One area that is not suitable is interactive data visualization in large volumes. I see companies trying this too often, and it's not necessarily the most convenient way to use Tableau. Things like analyzing large amounts of data perform poorly, while ARC GIS and SHP files are more advanced in this regard, it is possible to use parts of this data in Tableau that exceed traditional functionality. In these cases, I always recommend the communities and Q&A forums. It is a great place to get more information about a feature or assistance in creating a report or dashboard.
