Overall Satisfaction with Tableau Online

It used to be used in all departments, but now we limit the use to only certain teams.
  • Creating flexible dashboards.
  • Creating extracts of data.
  • It takes a long time to create extracts of data.
  • Requires very extensive training for new analysts.
Looker ended up as the winning product due to its easy to use and flexibility. It's easy for nontechnical stakeholders to learn how to create their Explores. But Tableau gives us more flexibility in creating highly customized visualizations so analysts still rely on it.
Best suited for creating very customized visualizations.
Less suited for creating general dashboards fast and easy.
