Overall Satisfaction with Tableau Server
When I started with GOGO, Tableau was one of the BI tools used across the company, where we have distributed usernames to multiple people for their development or usage. I played a key role to enable Tableau as an Enterprise tool with AD Authentication (OKTA Integration,) which helped hugely increase traffic to the Tableau Server.
Most of the departments like Finance, Supply Chain, Airline customers, etc., use Tableau. The only department that I see we are lagging in is HR. HR is looking forward to automating the dashboards, but due to connectivity issues with Workday (as Tableau doesn't have a Workday connector,) we are unable to automate the dashboards.
The Supply Chain department is very much impressed with the tool, as they have had a lot of work reduced at their end. Also, they have better tracking of the vendor details & gap analysis of the stock purchase, which saves a good amount of money for the company by avoiding penalties for late delivery.

- Saves plenty of time in Development Work.
- Better Visualization
- Flexibility to connect to plenty of databases, if not create your data set, using WDC functionality
- Easy Server maintenance & very quick releases by Tableau.
- Workday connectivity will help easy integration for HR department & this will encourage more usage in our company
- Enabling the XML format of the dashboard will help easily share the dashboard, like in COGNOS
- We have standardized to use Tableau as BI Tool across the company which saved money by killing other BI tools
- Enabling Tableau as an enterprise tool helped save time on user support for various tools
