"The most valuable feature of the solution is its dashboard."

"Forecasting changes that instantly flow through all financial statements."
"We utilize planning on a daily basis, therefore we find it to be the most valuable product for our organization."
"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."
"It is very good for data visualization. It has very powerful visualizations and is easy to use."
"Analysis is now more visual than in the past."
"It's intuitive and highly mature"
"I like the solution's web version, more so than Power BI's web version. It just makes it easier to drag and drop things and to blend data on the backend. It simplifies the process."
"The solution has a lot of customization when comparing to Microsoft BI."
"The initial setup is quick and easy and you don't need special outside assistance to set everything up."
"Tableau is an advanced specialized tool. One of the best features I've seen is the lack of an intermediate semantic layer. I think that's an advantage compared to any other tool like BusinessObjects or Power BI, which are Tableau's biggest competitors."
"Adaptive Insights has a limit of 1,00,000 rows for HTML reports. It should be improved because we will have multiple dimensions that need to be populated to enhance the image."
"Users continue to become more advanced and are looking for more advanced solutions."
"We tried Discovery and OfficeConnect at one point and found them too cumbersome, at the time."
"Adaptive Insights could improve the data designer interface to make integrations easier to set up."
"It's a Workday product; they could do a little bit better to integrate a pure-play integration with Workday, which really doesn't do that."
"Discovery (the data visualization module): Needs to catch up with BI leaders, such as MS and Tableau. E.g., sorting by amounts in column charts and page slicers to control all visuals."
"Their customer support team is slow to respond and not extremely confident."
"Being able to drill down when using OfficeConnect needs work."
"There are more than a powerful tool in the market, such as Microsoft BI."
"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."
"The data preparation could integrate better with Tableau."
"Requires a lot of user training."
"The interface can be improved, in part because there is no indication that something is running or that it's processing."
"I take a long time to process the hundreds of thousands or millions of records that must be processed every day."
"The solution does have scalability issues."
"We have products like Tableau, Power BI, Cognos, and QlikView in the data visualization segment. Compared to those, Tableau is quite costly."
