Overall Satisfaction with Tableau Online

In my organization, Tableau Online is being used for data analytics and forecasting circumstances. Currently, it is in it's nascent stage of development where the team is trying something new with the tool. The tool address many of our day to day operations. It helps us pinpoint problems, which makes it easier for us to make decisions.
  • It can use multiple data sources.
  • It has ready-made templates for visualizations.
  • It has reliable support.
  • It is UI friendly.
Tableau Online is much simpler than other Business Intelligence tools such as SAS and SAP Lumira. While SAS allows you to create algorithms to display a set, Tableau Online provides a more friendly user interface for ease of access. Although it does not stack up too well with other Business Intelligent tools, I would recommend Tableau Online to start out.
Tableau Online is well suited for small to medium organizations. In the classroom, this would be a good teaching tool for university students to enter the world of BI. Tableau Online could assist in making well informed financial decisions regarding stock market pricing and help to maximize stock options.
