Tableau Server and IT | TrustRadius

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

It is being used for data virtualization.

Pros and Cons

We were using a third party tool to visualize data in SSRS reports. Tableau is very helpful to visualize the data. Tableau visuals are easy to develop and need a very minimal amount of IT support.

It would be better if Tableau could work like Microsoft SSRS reports work. Through SSRS , we can call the Stored procedures and pass the parameter, but in Tableau there are a few constraints.

Return on Investment

I don't see any negative impact
Positive impact is that it's been easy to set up the server and easy to create visuals. We only need a low amount of IT maintenance/support.

Likelihood to Recommend

Visuals can be made quickly and with out having much technical background.
