Overall Satisfaction with Tableau Desktop
I use Tableau to better help me merchandise our website. I can see which products are selling the best from each category and it helps me make decisions on what product to feature at the top of each category page. I also like having the option to see which SKUs (color or design) are selling better than others and I'm able to use this knowledge when deciding which option I show
as the main focus on the product page.
as the main focus on the product page.
- Filter by category & refinement to see which items are the best sellers in the particular field.
- Able to break down each item number by SKU and see which one is performing better than others.
- Able to see excess inventory and conversions.
- There is no search option, if you are trying to find a certain item you will have to use the filters to find it.
- Some of the category refinements do not match our website. For example, there's a "solutions hardline" category filter and we do not have this on our actual website.
- You cannot check previous weeks/months of data. This would be helpful to have when comparing product performance.
I think Tableau is easier to read and understand. The data gets refreshed a few times a week so it's more current. I don't remember BloomReach being able to break down an item number into all of the SKUs attached to it so I wasn't able to see which color or design was selling the best.
