What differentiates Tableau from other similar products?

there are not many differences with other programs, maybe in some features that this program has and the other programs do not have.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

You may choose fields and metrics in a jiffy. Any variable may be represented mathematically. It can link to just about any data source you can think of. Additionally, the graphics output supply is really fast. We can, for example, download the PDF of the graphics, which is a good option. To combine data from many databases, including Excel, Oracle, and MySQL, use cross-database joins. You may always turn to the Tableau user community or the company itself for assistance if you run into problems.

What do you dislike most about this product?

When pulling data from several sources, it may become stuck, and this can prevent the whole system from functioning. It is important to provide more statistical functions. It annoys me that we can't use this tool to clear up the data. Even if you decide to host your panels on a VPS, the cost and control panel setting might be complex.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

This is the greatest tool on the market for doing exploratory data analysis (EDA) using visuals. Understanding the data, that is, generating ideas from it. If you're dealing with data, you can't totally depend on this tool since it doesn't allow for data cleansing or data transformation. No one will ever advocate using this tool to draw conclusions.

Pros

  • Reliable
  • Trustworthy
  • Unique Features
  • Efficient Service

easy to use

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

As a starting point, Tableau is a really capable data visualisation software package. Create a variety of elegant, interactive, and dynamic graphs with Tableau's graphing and data visualization capabilities. Tableau also supports a large number of data sources, so you won't have to worry about integrating your data sources with Tableau in most cases as well. Simply go to the Tableau forum and ask your query there if you have any queries about how to use this program. The majority of the time, you will receive a response within 24 hours.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Speed! Rapidity, rapidity, rapidity... When dealing with a big amount of data, speed will become a significant consideration. When you perform a query, it may take several minutes. But what's even more irritating is that it takes several minutes to cancel a search. So it takes that long to simply cancel a query baffles me. I'm not sure what you're talking about. You should truly consider your options before taking action; else, kindly wait for 7 minutes to complete your decision.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

For those who are new to data analytics and need to convey and visualize their findings to stakeholders, Tableau is an excellent tool.

Pros

  • Helps Innovate
  • Continually Improving Product
  • Performance Enhancing
  • Enables Productivity
