"We previously relied on a mixed bag of spreadsheets, data aggregation, and visualisation tools to integrate and present the retail reports with brand owners. It sometimes took days to crunch through the data and create an analytical profile of a brand that we could present to one of our brand partners and by that time the data was getting ancient. If the brand partner wanted to see a different slice of the data, we had to go back and start again."
"Tableau is highly recommended since it helps companies derive very helpful visual insights from existing data."
“We can take five or six different reports and blend them into a single business review document. It’s seamless in the presentation.”
"What would have taken me five hours to do, I can do in one with Tableau."
"Allowing our people to ask questions has provided huge value. Tableau makes it easier for people to get their own data and answer their own questions."
"Marketing is being flooded by analytics. Tableau became more than just software with a bunch of numbers and a few pretty graphs; it became a useful tool."
"It's easier to understand a phenomenon visually."
"Tableau was built to be easy, and it is."
"I've been able to give them tools to help them be more effective principals and teachers, to get more kids to graduate, more kids to college."
"We were making decisions in the dark before we had Tableau; everything we did was based on instinct."
"Tableau enabled me to track over a billion dollars in ad spending in 2012. If I didn't have Tableau, there's no way I could have done that."
"Using Tableau, last year we owned a 2 percent increase in revenue, that's $200 million U.S. dollars. If you want to own the money in the aviation or transportation industry, you're using Tableau."
"In this line of work, once you get an answer, it prompts more questions. The ability to zoom in on what you find is what makes these tools so much more powerful than outsourcing your questions to the analysts."
"We use Tableau a lot internally. It's one of our primary tools right now. It's as much an analytic tool as a communication tool."
"In the first month we measured how long it takes to do a certain type of job. The average was 96 days over the 100 jobs of that type we completed that month. Last month the average was 16 days—and we completed roughly 140 of that job type. So we are performing better, on larger job volumes, with fewer staff members."
