Revenyze vs. Tableau Desktop

Great customer service and support with an easy to use interface and easy to understand. The integration is seamless and much easier to use compared to some competitors products. Having customizable dashboards to handle reporting makes easier work for the team and they are able to understand their objectives more easily. We found that the dashboards and reporting also make sure that our client touch points are correct and ensures that we are offering the best service experience. I do feel that a con for Revenyze would be the gap in packages/plans available. I believe there should be a slight increase in the offering on Pro, leave Scale as it is and introduce a slightly more entry level package that offers what Pro currently does. This offers a greater plan dynamic to the mid-size enterprises who are working on updating their B2B and CRM packages which as we all know can be an incredibly costly exercise.

The best scenario is definitely to collect data from several sources and create dedicated dashboards for specific recipients. However, I miss the possibility of explaining these reports in more detail. Sometimes, we order a report, and after half a year, we don't remember the meaning of some data (I know it's our fault as an organization, but the tool could force better practices).

• Interactive and Visual reporting using Dashboards
• Hels us to understand the touch points of our clients journey and where we need to apply action
• Using task and action plans ensures that the sales team don't miss key steps in the sales process

• An excellent tool for data visualization, it presents information in an appealing visual format—an exceptional platform for storing and analyzing data in any size organization.
• Through interactive parameters, it enables real-time interaction with the user and is easy to learn and get support from the community.

Incentivized

• There should be additional plan options, only having Pro or Scale could be challenging to some start up mid-size companies
• Again because the plans are quite pricing, there should possible be a trial version
• Additional data rows and sources on the Pro plan would be helpful

Incentivized

• Pricing should be more user-friendly and usage-driven
• Making edits to the production reports is fairly tough and has a vast scope of additional capabilities
• Tableau Desktop should be able to differentiate itself from the Tableau server else there is no major meaning of two different products being offered

Our use of Tableau Desktop is still fairly low, and will continue over time. The only real concern is around cost of the licenses, and I have mentioned this to Tableau and fully expect the development of more sensible models for our industry. This will remove any impediment to expansion of our use.

Tableau Desktop has proven to be a lifesaver in many situations. Once we've completed the initial setup, it's simple to use. It has all of the features we need to quickly and efficiently synthesize our data. Tableau Desktop has advanced capabilities to improve our company's data structure and enable self-service for our employees.

When used as a stand-alone tool, Tableau Desktop has unlimited uptime, which is always nice. When used in conjunction with Tableau Server, this tool has as much uptime as your server admins are willing to give it. All in all, I've never had an issue with Tableau's availability.

Tableau Desktop's performance is solid. You can really dig into a large dataset in the form of a spreadsheet, and it exhibits similarly good performance when accessing a moderately sized Oracle database. I noticed that with Tableau Desktop 9.3, the performance using a spreadsheet started to slow around 75K rows by about 60 columns. This was easily remedied by creating an extract and pushing it to Tableau Server, where performance went to lightning fast

Tableau support has been extremely responsive and willing to help with all of our requests. They have assisted with creating advanced analysis and many different types of custom icons, data formatting, formulas, and actions embedded into graphs. Tableau offers a weekly presentation of features and assists with internal company projects.

It is admittedly hard to train a group of people with disparate levels of ability coming in, but the software is so easy to use that this is not a huge problem; anyone who can follow simple instructions can catch up pretty quickly.

I think the training was good overall, but it was maybe stating the obvious things that a tech savvy young engineer would be able to pick up themselves too. However, the example work books were good and Tableau web community has helped me with many problems

Again, training is the key and the company provides a lot of example videos that will help users discover use cases that will greatly assist their creation of original visualizations. As with any new software tool, productivity will decline for a period. In the case of Tableau, the decline period is short and the later gains are well worth it.

We love using HubSpot, we only have some minor niggles that introducing Revenyze solved. Together the two work in harmony ensuring the best action and tasks as well as understanding for our revenue team. The integration if you are using HubSpot already is seamless and easy to implement. The two compliment each other and you will really see the impact that using both software solutions has on your bottom line.

I have used Power BI as well, the pricing is better, and also training costs or certifications are not that high. Since there is python integration in Power BI where I can use data cleaning and visualizing libraries and also some machine learning models. I can import my python scripts and create a visualization on processed data.

Tableau Desktop's scaleability is really limited to the scale of your back-end data systems. If you want to pull down an extract and work quickly in-memory, in my application it scaled to a few tens of millions of rows using the in-memory engine. But it's really only limited by your back-end data store if you have or are willing to invest in an optimized SQL store or purpose-built query engine like Veritca or Netezza or something similar.

• Our team target productivity is up by 40% on the previous quarter
• Integration between marketing and sales is seamless, both teams now speak the same language
• We have increased our lead nurturing by around 30%, ensuring that leads don't slip through task gaps

• Tableau was acquired years ago, and has provided good value with the content created.
• Ongoing maintenance costs for the platform, both to maintain desktop and server licensing has made the continuing value questionable when compared to other offerings in the marketplace.
• Users have largely been satisfied with the content, but not with the overall performance. This is due to a combination of factors including the performance of the Tableau engines as well as development deficiencies.
