Desktop is the vizualization builder. This is the tool that analysts use to build tables, charts and dashboards.

insight?

Approximately 75% of analysts time is spent getting data 'analysis ready'

That's it - it really is that simple.

This is a Business Intelligence tool designed for analysis. That last, often neglected leg of a clunky old process. Put this tool in the hands of your analysts and you will start to get insight. FAST.

Server is used to manage data connections and extracts (this gives analysts analysis ready data). And of course, Server serves up the reports.

VizQL - the language that turns DATA into vizualization.

In-Memory Analytics

Show me gives you instant visual feedback as you investigate, allowing you to change views repeatedly. It even tells you what kind of metrics you need for the vizualizations.

What's that?

Why Tableau?

DESKTOP analytics products that crunch the data right on your computer - using your RAM - rather than on the disk where the data resides. That means SPEED.

What does that mean for the analyst?

Did I mention SHARE?

Investigate

Discover = Insight

Connect directly to any data source and import the data into an extract inside the workbook

this is a really big deal that doesn't get much notice...

Bask in the glory

Share

Wow!

Drag and drop... and it took less time than one chart in Excel

  • User based licensing (cheapest)
  • Easiest to use (if they can pivot, they can Tableau). Show Me!
  • Doesn't require developer skills
  • Connects to more data sources
  • Easily blends data
  • Big data leader - fastest!
  • Advanced statistics capabilities
  • Server implements in 1/2 day

In the analysts hands:

  • Simple data connection
  • Blending multiple data sources
  • Instant visual investigation
  • Easy as pivoting
  • Drag & drop to dashboarding

I connect to some data, create some calculated fields, make some charts and then make a dashboard. I post it or send it off. If you have Tableau Desktop, you can open up the insides of my workbook and see how I did everything. That's real knowledge sharing.

Analysts can add to each others work, build on it - or use the data to build another report. Think how fast analysts could be working. That 75% of analyst's time spent wrangling the data... does not need to be repeated.
