Excellent Data Integration, affordable price model and high user friendly.

Ease of install I suppose; that and its ease of uploading reports into our EHR.

Other report designers will offer time saving features that are missing here.

Data integrator for successful projct implementation.

This is easy to use but hard to integrate ,use is limited in many cases and not for every application.

Really helps to solve complex business solutions with its cool features and like their contribution to open source.

Using this kind of software brings ease and accurate data reports that helps the company on decision making.

The bugs are usually not so easy to solve, and the errors shown sometimes don't give you a clue of what is wrong.

Very easy to learn, provides efficient report designing tool and integration with different datasource is too good.

Pentaho, a great open source BI suit with strong community support.

Very good tools for visualisation of data. Dashboards are very easy to develop.

Lack of detailed comments in error messages. It does not have documentation in Spanish language.

Higher visual interface to processes,  has a good number of functions (and very easy to understand)  for data reporting, integration, data mining and ETL. Very simple but effective Big data transform.

Fastest growth and improvement. Better dashboard capabilities.

We have many difficult to install in cloud. The layout of some report that run in developing, don't run in production.

Interface is not intuitive. If you want to solve the problem by yourself there is no much information how to do that even with a very small problems.

Features like data reporting, integration, data mining and ETL. Provides easy and good insights of business.

PDI Community Edition is amazing the rest is mud.

Great analytics and results are very useful. Provides good insight of the business.

If you are not at all familiar with writing script, this program can be very challenging. No real user manuals are included.

I love the out of the box visualization templates.

The tool allows the creation of complex ETL projects in a quick way and save time to produce valuable solution for the company.

It is definitely the solution to carry out all the projects successfully.

I was using both PDI(data integration) and PRD(report designer) tool for my internal project. Totally enjoyed and satisfied with my experience.

Personally I think it is a very powerful tool, powerful, very robust and also free.

Best Pricing tier in industry, excellent Data Integration across the database nodes and high consistency in service.

A very well designed platform, of great cost benefit, as well as the integration and reports, even better than when we analyze the costs.

Data Integration allows the build of such a complex ETL projects in a quick way, it's very powerful. Being an open source software allows the user to always find hints over the web.

Pentaho allows for great flexibility in report writing. It provides access to data tables with limited restrictions.

Fantastic user interface. The data visualization functionality is very powerful and really helps tell the stories behind the data.

Its greatest strength is its flexibility to accept almost any kind of data and form them into displays with each other.

I helped integrate our project with tableau (embedded in our page html files). Overall a good experience with nice results and happy users.

I use this on a daily basis to check the stats of my surveys for my job. I love how convenient it is to see how great of a job I am doing for customers.

I love this software because its easy to pull in data from excel and create meaningful visualizations like stories and dashboards.

Have a good community support and documentations. It dose provide a 30days free trial on the tableau application, after which we need a product key.

Amazing and interesting its support and community support available online makes it more better then thought of.

Main business problems for using Tableau are analyzing metrics for daily operations, specifically failure rates and tracking completion.

There are some limitations (eg. email alert layout is extremely limited, you can only drag the date range filter as opposed to selecting dates). Some of our dashboards load very slowly.

There are great visuals right out of the box, and very clever interactions that allow you to drill down.

Great at helping us understand our clients better and using data more effectively.

Overall a high value application, with planty of options and gave me an excellent solution for a costum dashboard.

I for one use it to visualize our budget spend and how we're doing. It helps when creating presentations, no likes looking at numbers.

Tableau does lack functionality and is hard to use. There are scaling issues.

Tableau is one of the best business intelligence tools available in the market. The visual interface is really good and easy to use.

I loved the graphics and the ability to integrate large amounts of data. It gives tutorials right in the application so you can get assistance.

The support we pay for is almost worthless. We frequently solve the problem ourselves and it is time consuming to submit everything via their helpdesk with nothing to show for it.

Very powerful engine with capability to connect to varied data sources. It can be used to make some exceptionally amazing visualizations.

Overall experience is quite awesome This tool provides great insights from the data as we can use variety of charts to visualize our data.

If one is really skilled with the tool, complex visualizations can be created. I was thrilled to see a new feature that connects tables and was released in 2020, called noodles.

If a cheaper license is provided for small businesses, it will help lift improve its ROI. Tableau training was super helpful to me in grasping its user interface.

It is difficult to navigate and get started on the platform. Requires some training before you can be let loose on the platform and create your own reports.

In addition, there are large amounts of libraries of visualizations that you can use as inspiration (a great online community).

Working with Tableau has been a great experience. The time the implementation team took to help me out was great.

All in all, this is a great software with a lot of abilities to make an impressive presentation.

Some limited features/functionalities prevent you from doing basic things (such as formatting) or require complicated workarounds.

Reasonably priced, attractive graphics and ease of use is nearly unparalleled.

I dislike how it can be difficult to give end users access to the live updating dashboards that we do make through the software.

I love the interface of the dashboards and the ease of use once they are assembled. The dashboards are really cool.

Easy integration with existing data sources and nice charts analyzing all the data. Any one can understand without any prior training on the analyzed charts.

Tableau has great visuals, fairly intuitive UX, a big plus is the huge online community.

Love the ease of sorting through data and organizing into an attractive presentation.
