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.

Salesforce is intuitive and easy to learn. It is nice that it has memory of tabs previously opened on the dashboard, even between user sessions.

It's a bit tough to pick up the logic at the beginning when you first use it.

The dashboards are very handy and useful to our activities because it nicely integrates the information and presents it in a very digestable way with the enhancement of the Analytics Cloud.

Analytics is great, as long as your data is in Salesforce.

Extremely easy to learn this very powerful analytics tool. But needs to be easier to integrate outside data.

Easy to configure for the business needs. Easy to use on a daily basis.

I was really impressed as a user by this software and it was a great tool for our business sales analysis.

Would definitely recommend. It is certainly better than most softwares out there.

Expensive and there is always a hitch with Salesforce, but we are getting our money's worth and happy with the analytics we have built.

SalesForce is a great tool to manage customers/clients information. It is pretty easy to use.

If there is more technical support and training available for non-premium users, we should see a growth in value of Salesforce Analytics Cloud.

Training is relatively easy as well a good support service. Allows integrations via open APIs.

I had trouble finding where the information went after I categorized it.

Excellent analytics cloud as A Best Business Intelligent Application.

It is not a self-sufficient product, but rather an API with very limited functionality and bugs. Almost impossible to scale the tool, or build something usable once the complexity of tasks increases.

Salesforce Analytics reminds be to contact clients that I haven't reached out to in a while and also it is a great tool to look at what cleint did previously and keeps my buisness fresh.

The price its low and the futures are amazing for the price ,they don't try to take your money for every single think that you need.

Product is easy to use and has the option for a lot of different functionality. Reports are helpful and the chatter function is great to have as a cross-check feature.

I used Einstein Analytics (now: Tableau CRM) to rebuild and improve sales reporting in a medium-sized company.

The pictorial representation of the overall data  and its mapping on the Dashboard is the most fascinating thing of this tool and the parallel processing is also remarkable.

Knowledge ramp is a bit difficult to users that have no idea what is it.

Admin/development work can be very cumbersome and difficult.

In addition, individual requirements in dashboards can often only be implemented with increased effort. For this, JSON files have to be adapted, which often leads to many errors.

It's an amazing platform to bring all of your Salesforce data together in one place and see a truly holistic view of the things that matter. The end user experience is great.

It does need an analytical type experience. Which make it a bit hard to use.

The tool can be very clunky and hard to navigate at times. If you dont know exactly what you're looking for it can be difficult.

I love how user friendly this is as you can customize the software to your liking and understanding and things are easily accessible.

Best analytical tool available in the market. You just find the best development partner and it would make your business style far easier that what you even might not thought off.

The droid phone ap is extremely difficult to use.

It helps out your data into a visual point which helps to track news business as well as existing quotes. It links to external applications which is helpful.

It is not easy to implement and the user experience is a bit inefficient.

It is amazing for our business being able to have all information from our users in just one platform.

Quite easy to use for the end user, could do with some improvements but is a good tool all in all.

Currently the most efficient data analytics tool for a reason. So user friendly, quick interpretation.
