Find out in this report how the two Reporting solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The integration with our payroll system to complete staff modeling during our budget and forecast processes."
"Automated reporting."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its dashboard."
"Changes to corporate structure, account codes are updated in all versions including prior years, hence "one-version of truth" as claimed."
"It's very stable."
"The biggest feature is the source of truth for all of our budget and forecast versions."
"The important feature is integration with source data. It connects to various ERP systems, including Workday, Intact, and others. It can also import actuals and compare them to PlanPoint quite easily."
"It helps develop a more unified work format throughout the company."
"Better interaction and less time spent with end users."
"One of the most valuable features is that the solution allows users to build interactive dashboards. This allows the end user to modify the criteria or the filtering if need be. As far as for my personal use as a QA Engineer, I really value how extensive their API document support has been."
"Tableau is very flexible and easy to learn. It has drag-and-drop function analytics, and its design is very good. It is a very good tool, and it basically brings life into data with good design. We have been creating a lot of interactive visualizations and dashboards. It has a public version. There are public communities from where you can get a lot of examples for practice."
"Although Tableau isn't the best for us when it comes to processing and working on live data, it is very good at extracting data for analysis."
"The initial setup is quick and easy and you don't need special outside assistance to set everything up."
"Tableau has improved my organization in a variety of ways, one of its uses being that of data analysis. A feature I have found most valuable is the ease of use and straightforwardness, in addition to the flexibility of Tableau."
"Tableau has many different connectors for different databases. It's very easy to connect to MySQL, SQL Server, Amazon EMR, Presto, Redshift, BigQuery, and so on."
"The most valuable features are the visualizations, the way they show the combination charts."
"The product's configuration process could be faster."
"Discovery (the data visualization module): Needs to catch up with BI leaders, such as MS and Tableau. E.g., sorting by amounts in column charts and page slicers to control all visuals."
"It's a Workday product; they could do a little bit better to integrate a pure-play integration with Workday, which really doesn't do that."
"Users continue to become more advanced and are looking for more advanced solutions."
"Their customer support team is slow to respond and not extremely confident."
"The integrations could be simpler. It takes quite a bit of internal and IT know-how to set up."
"Being able to drill down when using OfficeConnect needs work."
"We tried Discovery and OfficeConnect at one point and found them too cumbersome, at the time."
"The solution could improve the scalability, it is difficult to make changes."
"Other tools are more competitively priced."
"The use of this service in the desktop version is annoying due to the constant updates which lead to reinstalling the application. If they could give support with updates on the same downloaded version, it would be great."
"The data preparation could integrate better with Tableau."
"The solution could use more features in data analytics."
"Reports should be downloadable as PDF files."
"Implementation requires a technical background."
"We did have issues with Tableau 10.1 server with the brokers failing on heavy load but since moving to 10.2, then to 10.3, this issue seems to have been resolved and the environment is now quite stable."
