Tableau decides on-the-fly whether it will be faster to perform actions right in your browser with local rendering, or query Tableau Server. This behavior is automatic, so you don’t have to think about it. Local rendering can speed up your analysis dramatically, especially when on a slow connection to Tableau Server. […]

Comment on 2008-10: Tableau wins with free Reader, Tableau Public by Jonathan Drummey https://apandre.wordpress.com/2015/11/08/tableau-catching-up-2008-10/#comment-20785 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 13:54:24 +0000 http://apandre.wordpress.com/?p=5743#comment-20785 Hi Andrei,

This is an update for the note on v6.0 for data blending: the v9.2 betas do not have support for cross-database joins. Although that was a new feature announced at #data15 I’m guessing it won’t be out until sometime in 2016 at the soonest.

Also, v6.0 introduced custom table calculations, those vastly expanded the kinds of aggregations we could do inside Tableau. I started using Tableau on v6.0 on top of MS Access and Excel and table calcs let me do things that were next-to-impossible in the MS JET driver.

Comment on 2 years after IPO, Tableau still growing fast by Larry Keller https://apandre.wordpress.com/2015/05/25/2-years-after-ipo/#comment-20269 Fri, 24 Jul 2015 11:38:10 +0000 http://apandre.wordpress.com/?p=5637#comment-20269 Hello Again Andrei……Your comment as usual are helpful as clients assess the DV choices. We are in the pilot phase of our Tableau Online Offering. We have taken a different path – In short we are treating online training from an academic approach. There are tests and exams through the process thus students do not advance without grades that are acceptable to the client.

Why invest in training if one treats this lightly?

Larry

For our client, we are compiling a comparison between Tableau,QlikView, SAP Lumira.
Since SAP Lumira is a new entrant, while other two are mature players.

How do you see DV in Lumira comparatively, apart from licensing costs?.
(Lumira is more analyst friendly, doesnt need high developer skills…as in case of Qlik)

Thanks,
Brusselar
