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."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 initial setup process is easy."
"In general, it is helpful because it allows administrators to see where the Wi-Fi and network services are being most used."
"Technical support has always been very good."
"The most valuable feature is the user experience."
"The solution has a lot of customization when comparing to Microsoft BI."
"The most valuable feature is the richness of its visualization and from a self-service standpoint, the ease of use."
"The most valuable features are the visualizations, the way they show the combination charts."
"Its performance is pretty good, and the development time is very low."
"The most valuable part of the solution is the general dashboard features."
"The Web Editing capabilities allow us to grant end users enough capabilities for them to do self-serve discovery without the added cost of needing to get everyone desktop licenses."
"I consider Tableau to be the best analytical tool available. It's really handy to use and can be used by non-technical people."
"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."
"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."
"I would like them to include the Italian language, as I can see there are other foreign language in the product."
"Firstly, the high cost of Tableau licenses makes it inaccessible for many mid-scale clients. Secondly, the server requires at least 128GB of RAM, which can be impractical for some systems. We need a dedicated system to use Tableau."
"They need to improve the bar chart position and width."
"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."
"I would like to be able to set the parameters in a more specific manner."
"The solution does have scalability issues."
"I would like to have the product be more flexible in terms of creating online shared dashboards."
"From a downside perspective, some of the more advanced modeling techniques are actually fairly difficult to do. In addition, I just fundamentally disagree with the way you have to implement them because you can get incorrect answers in some cases."
