Overall Satisfaction with Tableau Server
We are using Tableau as an enterprise reporting tool. We are using Tableau for reporting against our new DW. It will provide one source of truth of our data.
The graphs are easy to create and very attractive. The dashboards help tell a story about our data.

Pros
- Graphs are easy to create!
- Data connections are easy to use - and when your data is not formed well you can write custom queries.
- Great user experience! Our users love the tool.
Cons
- It is not easy to determine when using sets would be useful.
- Complicated calculations are a little hard to troubleshoot.
- Extracts! Killing an extract would be useful and currently no easy way to do this.
I didn't select Tableau but am very glad we have it! I have used several reporting tools and Tableau is the easiest to use and has the best user adoption.
Other tools can involve lots of background work or just difficult to display the data as needed. Tableau is easy to use and makes our job easier.
