Hi all,

 

As we are getting closer to the date, to help me with room booking, could
you please let me know if you think you'll be able to come to the Tableau
demo at 3pm on Friday week (21st of September)?

 

No need for a cast-iron commitment: it's most likely that we will use the
seminar room downstairs, as the research meeting room is pretty small and
won't cope with more than 10 visitors, but if it's not going to be a big
group then the research room is a bit nicer.

 

I spoke to Grant and Simon from MIP this morning and they're keen to work
with the demo they know: I'm going to have a crack at downloading the trial
version to see what I can whip up with my data, and if there's time at the
end I can show the results.

 

Kind regards,

 

William Rose

Hi all,

 

Save the date! The Tableau distributor (MIP) will be coming to Peter Mac 3pm
on 21st of September to present on their data discovery tool. Put it in your
calendar now to avoid disappointment on the day.

 

I will be working with them to try to tailor the demo a bit - any
suggestions on what you'd like to see about the tool most welcome.

 

Their web site is http://www.tableausoftware.com/

 

 

Kind regards,

Hi all,

 

Thanks to all who made it down last Friday: it is the hardest time of year
in terms of BI workload, so it was great to see you there.

 

For September, the suggestion is to try to arrange a demo of Tableau,
another QlikView-esque data discovery tool. As quite a few of us are
considering or have started down a path towards adding QlikView into the
mix, there is some interest in checking out the competition. Rose & Simon
from Peter Mac have had a demo which was the typical car sales data.

 

I can try to organise a demo similar to Nadav's SQL 2012 demo with some
health data sets: I'm also interested in trying to get them to demo what it
is like to get data into the tool, as this seems to be the most frequently
glossed over part of these tools.

 

If you have some specific ideas for dashboards or reports you'd like to see
the Tableau version of, please let me know!

 

The date for this is tentatively Friday 21st of September, at this stage at
Peter Mac, unless the Tableau reps have their own meeting rooms.

 

 

For October, I have badgered Peter Carty sufficiently that he has agreed to
have us over to the Austin so we can check out some of their cool toys! I'll
leave it up to Peter to advise further.

 

 

 

Kind regards,
