We performed a comparison between Actian Ingres and Tableau based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Tableau, Qlik, Splunk and others in Data Visualization."The deployment of our solution across a number of servers using Ingres .NET has meant that we can protect the database server behind a highly secure firewall and deploy the front end solutions on a normal web server."
"The ability to deploy is the added ability to centralise the Tableau repository for all Tableau Developers."
"The most valuable feature is the geographic data analysis."
"Tableau's most valuable feature is its ability to connect with various data sources and display real-time data on three different dashboards."
"You are able to see and follow trends."
"It has been the best tool to work with from a self-service point of view."
"The solution has a lot of customization when comparing to Microsoft BI."
"This solution has transformed us from an Excel reporting environment to one of visual exploration."
"The dashboards are amazing, with different report types and stunning visuals. Most importantly, Tableau's AI with machine learning automatically predicts features and reports based on historical data. These are the three most valuable features for me."
"The ability to reset the log file without stopping the DBMS would be helpful for us."
"It will be good if the server, could be more stable, and I would like to have the technical service to be more reliable."
"The solution does have scalability issues."
"Licensing and pricing options could be made better so that more users would be able to use it."
"Improvements can be made in template support. The workbook file structure is really hard to version control. If there was some sort of version control support offered particularly for workbooks, that would help big time."
"They need a write-back; that is what is missing. If they get the write back to the database, they will be fully automated, but for the time being, they are not."
"Tableau could be improved by introducing a data manipulation layer within the tool itself. Currently, data manipulations require using additional tools like Alteryx. If Tableau included these capabilities, it would reduce the need for external dependencies. The tool gets slower when we feed huge amounts of data."
"Requires a lot of user training."
"I don't have the ability in Tableau to create a tooltip and see the picture of a piece of jewelry or watch that is a best seller."
