Find out in this report how the two BI (Business Intelligence) Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Technical support has always been very good."
"In general, it is helpful because it allows administrators to see where the Wi-Fi and network services are being most used."
"The initial setup process is easy."
"I like Location Analytics' geofencing features for devices. You can manage thousands of devices with just a push of a button and deploy applications in seconds. For example, in schools, you can deploy an app update for thousands of iPads in just two clicks."
"The solution is easy to use, flexible, our clients enjoy seeing the data on maps, and you do not need to be an expert in SQL to use it."
"The data blending capabilities is a huge factor for our team."
"It provides supporting data for critical policy and operational changes"
"The solution has a lot of customization when comparing to Microsoft BI."
"The solution offers very good reporting."
"From my perspective, it enables clients to better understand our data and make better decisions based on that information."
"Very user friendly."
"It is very good for data visualization. It has very powerful visualizations and is easy to use."
"The technical support before implementation could be better for premium partners."
"I would like to see all of the features included in a single package."
"The pricing is a pain point for us. It's a bit expensive."
"The biggest issue is negotiating the price with a client. That's the most complicated part, but the product is worth it."
"Its price is a concern. It is more expensive than Power BI. The other thing that I never liked about Tableau is its ability to handle large sets of data. To present the data in the dashboards, we have to stage it up exactly like it is going to come into the dashboard. We use another tool called Alteryx that does that for us. So, we manipulate the data, get it staged, and then push it into Tableau. Tableau is terrible at handling large data sets, and we knew right away that we couldn't use Tableau to do data manipulation."
"It would be nice to include more features on each dashboard."
"Could have more integrations with different platforms."
"Most of the problems in Tableau Online that I have noticed have to do with performance or weird, inexplicable bugs that I can't pin down. For example, you might try unloading some data, and you'll be waiting for a long time without anything happening."
"It should offer better features for customization."
"Reports should be downloadable as PDF files."
"The ability to use it on MAC machines. As far as I know, this is not possible."
"Creating empty extracts is not easy."
