We performed a comparison between Meraki Location Analytics and Tableau based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two BI (Business Intelligence) Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I like Location Analytics' geofencing features for devices. You can manage thousands of devices with just a push of a button and deploy applications in seconds. For example, in schools, you can deploy an app update for thousands of iPads in just two clicks."
"Technical support has always been very good."
"In general, it is helpful because it allows administrators to see where the Wi-Fi and network services are being most used."
"The initial setup process is easy."
"The most valuable feature is the 3D charting."
"This solution has improved insights into quantitative data."
"From my perspective, it enables clients to better understand our data and make better decisions based on that information."
"Data handling, visualizations, and aesthetics of it are the most valuable features."
"It is easy to use, and it can handle a large amount of data."
"Tableau has greatly enhanced our organization's data-driven decision-making processes by enabling us to create visually compelling reports and dashboards."
"Easy to create graphs and visualizations."
"Since Tableau is on the cloud, we haven't faced any challenges around scalability."
"The biggest issue is negotiating the price with a client. That's the most complicated part, but the product is worth it."
"I would like to see all of the features included in a single package."
"The technical support before implementation could be better for premium partners."
"The pricing is a pain point for us. It's a bit expensive."
"Its price is a concern. It is more expensive than Power BI. The other thing that I never liked about Tableau is its ability to handle large sets of data. To present the data in the dashboards, we have to stage it up exactly like it is going to come into the dashboard. We use another tool called Alteryx that does that for us. So, we manipulate the data, get it staged, and then push it into Tableau. Tableau is terrible at handling large data sets, and we knew right away that we couldn't use Tableau to do data manipulation."
"In the next release, I would like to be able to have the option to see more raw data that I'm converting on the dashboard."
"Bursting email is needed to deliver the reports to many people in their inboxes and this functionality is not provided by Tableau."
"When we put more information on a single screen, it gets compressed and superimposed in many places while scrolling."
"There should be more widgets that would help less trained individuals create charts with less difficulty."
"Provide additional enhancements in any business process: Operations, Marketing and Sales, Finance, Human Resources, Logistics, etc."
"When I've done presentations in the past, I've had issues with uploading the cartography."
"Tableau could be improved by introducing a data manipulation layer within the tool itself. Currently, data manipulations require using additional tools like Alteryx. If Tableau included these capabilities, it would reduce the need for external dependencies. The tool gets slower when we feed huge amounts of data."
