The value of Tableau

Making informed decisions starts with your analytics platform

Is analytics a strategic business objective?

You want a modern analytics platform to facilitate informed decision-making, yet you may be tempted to choose a product that came as part of a software bundle instead of deeply evaluating the leading solutions in the market. Catch the irony?

With the volumes and varieties of data collected today, every company is now a data company. But not every analytics platform is the same. To drive change with data, you need a solution that helps users get deep insights without compromising governance or speed.

The right analytics solution can drive change, not just tick a box

BI and analytics providers may make similar claims about features, and the end visualisations may even look the same. However, there's more value to your organisation through the deeper insights users get when empowered to ask and answer their own questions.

Tableau is easy to learn and fast to drive impact, enabling iterative exploration through intuitive interfaces – from drag-and-drop to natural language interactions. Our diverse and passionate global community helps accelerate personal and organisational growth. And with our enterprise-grade security and governance, everyone in the organisation can explore trusted data while IT has peace of mind.

"I think that’s been the biggest contributor to Tableau’s success at JPMC. It evolved from nothing to where we are today because people want to use it, and not because IT went off in a bubble."

"I can tell you that easily it runs into 10,000–20,000 man hours in terms of productivity generated because of the automation and standardisation you get out of Tableau. But more than that, to me it’s the business value – and you cannot really put a price on it."
