Tableau Likes & Dislikes
What really stands out to me is how easily complex data can be turned into clear and visual stories. Also, the drag-and-drop interface is simple enough for beginners yet powerful.
Web based.
- Data aggregation features are really powerful - Reusable logic with Recipes and Dataflows - Relatively quick - compare to standard reports/dashboards
Sometimes Tableau feels slow when working with very large datasets or complex calculations. Performance can lag unless you carefully optimize your queries and data sources
Data can be slow to load when first logging in No ability to email data or images from the application When changing filter data, the app refreshes automatically. It would be nice if there was an apply button.
- Dataset refreshes are far from real-time (we have a large DB) - SAQL is a little confusing in the beginning - Limited Cross-Object relations

What Your Peers Are Saying About Tableau
IT Manager
Is anyone using a central AI to report on project status in realtime highlighting dependencies and bottlenecks. Or are you just connecting project management systems (MS Project, Jira, Primavera) to dashboards with Power BI or Tableau?CIO
See Full DiscussionLeading indicators are super useful because they give you a heads-up about potential problems instead of just telling you what’s already gone wrong. We are using an AI powered tool ( can't be named here, I guess) that gets you insights that help you notice issues before they escalate.
Plus, it really encourages everyone to be transparent about project status so the whole team knows what’s going on from the get-go. This openness motivates everyone to take responsibility and helps build strong teams that tackle problems early on and stay focused on their goals together.
Traditional reporting often comes too late to make necessary changes. By being proactive and embracing transparency with some AI support, teams can adapt and improve on their own. The key is to catch issues early and empower teams to make adjustments as needed.
AI plays a role in all team decisions, like a performance coach, and also helps out at the management level. It identifies risks and suggests improvements for senior executives.
I hope that helps? 🙂
Data Manager
We are currently looking at moving from Spotfire to Tableau or Power BI. Our data is complex oil and gas data, not large volume retail or bank data. Any thoughts or experiences with this?Data Scientist
See Full DiscussionData needs to be curated into manageable, focus dataset or data mart, then have visualization tool to access for the given purpose. Personally, Tableau.

Tableau CRM Offers Flexibility and Powerful Data Aggregation for Administrators
I'm generally happy with Tableau CRM. It's noticeably more flexible than standard SF reports/dashboards and at the same time significantly easier than writing SOQL queries / writing Apex scripts. It's a really good tool for a Salesforce administrator without dev skills. - CYBERSECURITY COMMUNITY MANAGER1B-10B USDIT ServicesReview Source
