Find out what your peers are saying about Tableau, Qlik, Splunk and others in Data Visualization."Having a tool where you can find logs that were generated months ago, and being able to search over a long period of time, is great."
"The optimization and flexibility of visualization tools."
"The automatic update of the graphs from a dashboard is very convenient."
"It is very easy to implement and to use."
"When compared with Power BI, Tableau is much easier."
"You are able to see and follow trends."
"From my perspective, it enables clients to better understand our data and make better decisions based on that information."
"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 product’s performance is better than other tools."
"Tableau has comprehensive, insightful charts, which allow you to build stunning dashboards and enrich your support decision-making."
"Any feature I am looking for usually is part of the next upgrade within a few months. They have a very good dynamic evolution."
"Having a kind of wizard that would help you when you are typing your search would make it easier and quicker to refine your search, and ultimately find what you are looking for."
"This solution should allow the user to combine two indices into one graph."
"Security could be improved thereby avoiding the necessity of a third party plugin."
"It needs more ETL capabilities, to be able to address the end-to-end BI need."
"The pricing is a bit higher than the competition. They'll need to lower it to stay competitive."
"Areas for improvement would be visualization and augmented analytics. In the next release, I would like to see automated insights from the data added to the dashboard."
"Its documentation can be improved so that a user can get a good hands-on experience. Tableau is well documented, and on their website, there are a lot of tutorials that are available for free. I started my learning process through those tutorials, but there are certain loopholes in those tutorials, which only got filled through a couple of good YouTube channels that talk about Tableau. YouTube helped me a lot. So, the documentation could be better, I understand that it is evolving day by day, and with more usage, there would be more such documentation."
"Its integration with Microsoft products such as Teams should be improved."
"We would like a report model, because currently there is no schema that we can create in the tool."
"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's data modeling, mining, and AI library features need improvement."
