Data analytics and Business intelligence was one of the under-recognized services by most of the companies for a long time but with the introduction of Tableau, it became a game changer. Gradually companies used to adapt a data driven culture and right from then Tableau became the go to platform for several big organizations. The scope and power of Tableau raised eyebrows of several multinational companies and in result Salesforce ( one of the major CRM Enterprise companies) acquired Tableau for a whopping deal of $15B in 2019. It was one of the biggest acquisitions upto the moment. From then Tableau is operating under the product library of Salesforce. Marc Beniof the Co-ceo of salesforce at the time of acquisitions stated that “ Together we can transform the way people understand not only their customers, but their whole world “
Till now we have seen together what tableau is and why should you choose tableau but aren’t you excited to know how tableau can help your business grow? Well, apart from being easy, smooth, collaborative, interactive Tableau still has a lot to offer in its armour. Let’s see one by one.
An organization might have various forms of Data resources from Excel sheets to databases such as MySQL to sources like Google analytics, cloud storages and many more. It is alway tedious and time consuming to pull data manually from all the resources but tableau offers in-built data connectors which can automatically pull the data from your resources saving a lot of time and Manpower. If the process of pulling, combining and filtering the data is taken place manually then it needs complicated architectures and also vulnerable to Data mishaps, so to avoid these human errors tableau works like a charm Analyst’s can quickly arrange and combine the data to analyze and at the same time Stakeholders are able to receive the reports quickly in order to take timely decisions without getting delayed.
Most Business analytics tools require analysts to work beforehand to decide what keymetrics they need to analyze but Tableau gives you freedom to explore the simple drag and drop features to experiment and create different perspectives of Data. The ability to respond to quick changes and the built in visualization dashboard provides information in a graphical way. Tableau supports a wide variety of charts such as graphs, geo-maps, color codings and even it gives freedom to design the reports as per their brandings making it more user friendly for Stakeholders to always be on.
Imagine you have everything in your bucket right from marketing reports to sales reports to performance reports but as you were on a holiday, you were unable to access the hard work of analysts kept behind it. What a pathetic scenario it could be and how dangerous it could be if the decisions are delayed. To get rid of this tableau comes with great features where you can share your files reports via links but for this all you need is Tableau server. The story doesn’t end here. You can assign permissions on a granular level so that external teams such as clients or third party vendors still have the access but are unable to modify your data.
Many big companies invest huge money just to experiment things but with small and medium businesses where budgets are strictly allocated then there definitely you need a strong force to back up your decisions because you can’t afford to lose money. But you might be thinking what could be that force? It is ‘Data’. If you have well structured, filtered data then you can make your decisions better than before because Data is always true and it works the best. According to Forbes research more than 80% of companies were able to make better decisions based on Data and it also gave them a boost of 3X results from the first year itself.
