Streamline Your Focus with Metrics that Matter

Businesses grapple with vast volumes of information, often presenting reports in a standardized manner to accommodate entire teams.

Embed Relevant Data into Your Workflow

These days, professionals juggle various applications, which poses a challenge when tracking crucial KPIs. The continual shift between disparate tools not only consumes time but also disrupts workflow continuity.

Tableau Pulse heralds a transformative shift by integrating pertinent data directly into users’ existing tools. This breakthrough ensures data detachment from specific dashboards, guaranteeing access to essential metrics without workflow interruptions. Insights are seamlessly captured within the tools where users spend the most time, eradicating the risk of missing critical information due to platform discrepancies. Additionally, this integration streamlines the scalability of insights across the organization, simplifying the process of visualizing, sharing, and collaborating on data by utilizing tools already familiar to everyone within the company.

Effortless Data Interpretation

Today’s data interpretation can often entail a laborious and manual process. Users invest significant time analyzing data to unveil trends and insights while navigating the labyrinth of questions to pose to their datasets. This complexity invariably impedes decision-making speed and hampers overall productivity.

Tableau Pulse redefines data utilization by automating analysis and communicating insights in easily comprehensible, natural language formats. Initially, Tableau Pulse assumes the burden of uncovering the ‘why’ behind the ‘what.’ It autonomously identifies and generates insights, predicting the queries you might raise and even suggesting questions that may not have crossed your mind. Subsequently, Tableau AI succinctly summarizes these insights conversationally. This streamlined approach facilitates faster, informed decision-making, eliminating the need for extensive manual data analysis.

In the example below, Tableau Pulse extends its capabilities to address your data inquiries using natural language. Upon delving deeper into the “Appliance Sales” metric, Tableau Pulse was queried, “What is driving change in Appliance Sales?” In response, Tableau Pulse swiftly provided a concise answer along with a visual representation elucidating the factors influencing this change.
