Ease of developing dashboards and receiving strong technical support have enabled efficient data visualization
Introducing custom features, such as NLP-based reports, is not very good in Tableau. My MD has been asking us for a way to write in natural language to request reports that the system should generate, but that isn't very effective with Tableau. As a developer, I can develop an on-demand report in Python quite easily, but exposing a REST API on the Tableau platform is not a very easy task. AI enablement is an area for improvement for Tableau, and that is something they might have to work upon. I have heard that ThoughtSpot is quite better in this regard, but the cost of ThoughtSpot is much higher. ThoughtSpot has lots of natural language-based report generation features that Tableau lacks.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable features of Kyvos are reconciliation and its ability to query big data."
"This solution has transformed us from an Excel reporting environment to one of visual exploration."
"Tableau has many good features. It is user-friendly, has a simple-to-use interface, and has a customizable dashboard."
"The best use case for us is the solution's integration with Salesforce because we are also partners of Salesforce."
"It's the ease of use. It is also a self-service tool so it decreases the burden on having centralized IT-type teams or developers."
"It has made the reporting stage simple and enabled us to focus mainly on the ETL part"
"Tableau is very good in the front-end visualization compared to Power BI."
"It's intuitive and highly mature"
"Tableau is extremely good at dashboard creation, providing clear and concise visual presentations."
 

Cons

"Since I couldn't find any tutorials or a handbook, I had some initial difficulty understanding the UI and the whole interface of Kyvos."
"Tableau's integration with Einstein Analytics could be better."
"It would be nice to include more features on each dashboard."
"It will be good if the server, could be more stable, and I would like to have the technical service to be more reliable."
"There have been issues where suddenly the site will not respond, requiring a restart."
"More integration with Python or something related to machine learning would be a good improvement."
"An area needing improvement involves the complexity of the product should you need to alter a lot of parameters. If you have technical servers, much interface, different providers and more serious processes, that will be time consuming."
"I would like to have the product be more flexible in terms of creating online shared dashboards."
"Pricing is also a concern for me as it is expensive compared to TIBCO Spotfire Enterprise licensing and Microsoft Power Platform."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"One of the biggest drawbacks of Tableau is the price, it is expensive. The price should be reduced."
"The price of Tableau could improve. The license is too expensive."
"It is expensive when you compare it with Power BI. It should be cheaper."
"I wish there was more of a subscription model with the pricing when it comes to Tableau, so you can get all the latest version upgrades/features if you pay monthly/annually."
"Tableau has core-based and user-based licensing, and it is tied to scalability. The core-based licensing is about you buying a certain number of cores, and there is no restriction on the number of users who can use Tableau. The restriction is only on the number of cores. In user-based subscription licensing, there is a restriction on the number of users. Big companies and government organizations with a lot of users typically go for core-based licensing. User-based subscription licensing is a more common model. It has user roles such as creator, explorer, and viewer. A creator is someone who does the groundwork or development work. An explorer is someone who is into middle management but is not technically savvy, such as a category head. A viewer is like a typical decision-maker in senior management. For each role, Tableau is priced differently. The viewer role has the minimum price, and the creator role has the highest price. This pricing is available on their website. Everybody can see it."
"It is a bit overpriced."
"The pricing of Tableau should be better to remain competitive in the market, especially when compared to alternatives."
"It is fairly expensive. I have no idea what they paid. We were on an enterprise license, so whatever it is they licensed at the enterprise level is what we paid."

MicroStrategy vs. Tableau
After a recent presentation, several attendees asked me about the applications of Visual Insights and Tableau.
