When Tableau is the right fit And when Power BI, Looker or the tool you have would serve you better
A good fit when
- Your analysts like to explore data visually, not only read reports
- You run on Salesforce, and want analytics next to your CRM
- You already own Tableau and want more from it
Look elsewhere when
- Everyone works in Microsoft 365 and Teams: Power BI is often cheaper
- Most users only read reports and never build them
- Your numbers disagree at the source: fix the data first
Our Tableau consulting services in detail What each service covers, and what you have when it's done
Interactive data visualization in Tableau
Tableau is built for exploring: a manager clicks a region, filters a product, and drills from a total to the orders behind it. We design dashboards that make that easy, with filters, actions and tooltips that answer the next question before it's asked.
Tableau dashboard and report development
Each dashboard starts from one team's decisions. We keep it to the few views that matter, label every chart with what it shows, and check every figure against the source system before release.
- Dashboards for executives, analysts and field teams
- Embedded analytics in your own portal or app
- Subscriptions and alerts by email or Slack
Tableau Server and Tableau Cloud deployment
We set up Tableau Server on your own infrastructure or Tableau Cloud hosted by Tableau, with single sign-on, projects and permissions, and published data sources so everyone builds on the same definitions.
We also move sites from Tableau Server to Tableau Cloud, workbooks, users and schedules included.
Tableau performance tuning and optimization
A workbook that takes 15 seconds to load stops being opened. We find what makes it slow, usually too many marks, live queries on large tables, or heavy calculations, and fix it with extracts, simpler calculations and better data sources.
Tableau implementation and go-live support
Tableau pays when people use it. We train viewers and creators, track which dashboards are opened, and help in the first weeks when questions come thick and fast.
We also review your licenses, so you stop paying for seats nobody uses.
Data sources Tableau connects to
Tableau connects to Excel and CSV files, SQL Server, Oracle, PostgreSQL and MySQL, Snowflake, Databricks, Amazon Redshift and Google BigQuery, and applications such as Salesforce and Google Analytics. Where there's no connector, we build the pipeline that gets the data there.
Questions about Tableau consulting services What buyers ask us before a Tableau project
What's the difference between Microsoft Excel and Tableau?
Excel is a spreadsheet for organizing data and doing calculations. Tableau is built for visual analysis: it connects to many more sources, handles much larger data, and turns it into interactive dashboards people explore.
What data sources can Tableau connect to?
Files such as Excel and CSV, databases such as SQL Server, Oracle and PostgreSQL, cloud platforms such as Snowflake, Redshift and BigQuery, and applications such as Salesforce and Google Analytics.
What are the benefits of using Tableau?
It's quick to learn, strong for exploring data visually, works well on phones, and has a large community. Governance features such as published data sources keep everyone on the same definitions.
How much do Tableau consulting services cost?
It depends on the number of dashboards, the data sources, and whether you need Server or Cloud set up. We quote after a short requirements session, by project or by month.
Can I hire Tableau developers full time?
Yes. Dedicated Tableau developers suit teams that update dashboards often, manage many data sources, or need steady BI support. They join your team and work on your priorities.
