Overall Satisfaction with Tableau Desktop
Tableau was initially purchased with the goals of speeding up the creation process of reports based on a very large data set. Over time we have expanded the usage of tableau from everyday sales by zip reporting to even using tableau to analyze potential locations to open up new stores. It has been useful for practically anyone in the organization, it is also simple to understand and read as well from the visualizations.
- Create visualizations of your data
- Join data sources from various files or servers
- Very easy to use even for beginners and as complex as you want it to be
- Could use more tutorials and advanced tutorials even though they have a great community
- Geocoding maps should and can be a lot easier especially when trying to plot points
Tableau is a very, very powerful analytics tool that is very flexible with that said there are always some programs that will do specific tasks much better, I would highly suggest Tableau as I use it for marketing analysis, sales reporting and even for analysis on e-commerce and digital marketing purposes.
