We performed a comparison between Pyramid Analytics and Tableau based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Visualization solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature of Pyramid Analytics, outshining even top-tier platforms like Power BI, is its robust support for DAX queries."
"It proved to be a very powerful and useful tool due to its breakdown capabilities, easy reporting features, flexibility in building custom calculations, and the ability to integrate them into reports."
"It seems quite performant in analyzing multi-dimensional information sets and presenting them."
"The features I find most valuable are 'Discover,' 'Formulate,' and 'Model.' I use them regularly to build logic and create reports for my job."
"The on-premise version has quite good scalability."
"Pyramid has a wide level of uses, as it's a complete ETL process and has a good level of connecting to a lot of data sources."
"It offers a wide range of analytics options including statistics and visualizations, as well as prediction capabilities, allowing users to make forecasts based on the latest data."
"I think the most valuable Pyramid Analytics feature is the solution's ability to drill down and dice in the loop. I think it is better than InExcel or Power BI."
"The data blending capabilities is a huge factor for our team."
"The ability of filtering and segmentation of the data makes it very flexible compared to other tools."
"Show Me is a feature to help with knowing which chart is an appropriate one for the selected variables, and it makes helps in creating appropriate visuals."
"I have found many of the self-service features valuable."
"The solution offers very good reporting."
"It provides supporting data for critical policy and operational changes"
"Tableau's initial setup was straightforward."
"Gradual scalability from simple to complex situations"
"Even though the solution has a functionality for every step, it's not so well- defined. That needs to be improved."
"There is room for improvement in terms of documentation and examples, especially for newcomers like me who are learning both business intelligence and Pyramid."
"Pyramid Analytics could improve by speeding up data refresh, especially for large datasets."
"I find that this is quite a heavy, time-consuming tool for developers."
"I think the graphic number of charts and components could be higher, at least comparable to Brain Power BI."
"There is room for improvement in terms of the user interface, particularly when it comes to modifying connections between filters and visual components in a dashboard."
"It would be desirable to have the possibility to generate a data dictionary, detailing the original physical tables, renamed fields, and derived fields."
"The general amount of negative comments that I am hearing from my team makes me very wary."
"They need to improve the icons and the filters, because they look too old, resembling Excel from 1997."
"The only issue with the solution is with its prices at a regional level."
"When it comes to visualizations, Tableau has a limitation as compared to Power BI. It has a limited set of visualizations. Power BI has the entire marketplace, so you can connect and import many visualizations and use them, whereas Tableau has only 10 or 15 visualizations. There should be more visualizations, and there should also be data integration with more cloud providers."
"It is not so great when it comes to data exchange/integration, data mining, etc."
"There could be improvements on the mobile application, it is lacking features."
"Creating empty extracts is not easy."
"Maybe the price could be a bit cheaper, especially if you're a personal developer that uses Tableau just to explore smaller data sets and you're not a company or something like that."
"What is happening, with so many tools coming up in the market, is that people have to continuously get educated in order to use some of the more advanced features."
