Overall Satisfaction with Tableau Online

We use Tableau Online within our analytics team. It helps us take large data sets and parse out trends and insights. It also offers a layer of visualization that is superior to traditional Microsoft products.
  • Easily connects to sources of data, whether they be stored in databases, excel files or even web analytics tools like Google Analytics.
  • Provides out of the box data visualization tools and the opportunity to customize these views for business use.
  • Makes data filtering and segmentation easy to conduct.
  • Takes some time to onboard.
  • User interface is not straight forward.
  • Could expand data connections to other web analytics APIs beyond Google Analytics.
Tableau Online has a much larger breadth of functionality and is more flexible in that it allows more data connections and imports.
Recommended for enterprise web analytics and reporting. Recommended when combining many large data sets to discover a single unifying story. Less recommended for basic reporting and analysis which can be done more efficiently using tools like Excel.
