BUILT WITH Qt

Tableau

Business Intelligence & Analytics

Using Qt, the Business Intelligence and Analytics Leader Has Changed the Way People Use Data.

Whether it's structured or unstructured, petabytes or terabytes, millions or billions of rows, you can turn big data into big ideas. Tableau helps people unlock the value in today's information flows — from clickstreams to sensor networks to infrastructure logs. With the mission “We help people see and understand their data”, Tableau is transforming the way people use data to solve problems: making databases and spreadsheets understandable for ordinary people, making data analysis fast and easy, and visualizing data with beautiful, interactive dashboards.

Their Solutions & Results

  • Commitment to a cross-platform tech strategy with Qt
  • Maintenance cost reduced to less than it took to support just one target platform
  • A UI framework with a responsive, branded user experience at native speed and performance
  • Future-proofed strategy with Qt Commercial licensing

When we can write once and run everywhere, we were able to cut down our maintenance costs to below what we had for one platform in the past.

How Tableau Became the Leader in Analytics Platforms Using Qt

You guessed it — their responsive and stunning user interfaces are Built with Qt. The $3.5 billion data empire quickly became, and has stayed, a leader in Gartner's Magic Quadrant for BI & Analytics platforms, outpacing giants such as SAP, IBM, and Oracle. Just like Qt, Tableau serves customers across every industry imaginable — including Wells Fargo, Dow Chemical, SpaceX, and the Texas Rangers.

Designed for the Individual, Scaled for the Enterprise

Tableau makes analyzing data fast, easy, beautiful, and useful. No wonder it has gained growing interest among business users — and among groups that traditionally did not use Business Intelligence (BI) tools.

Tableau is revolutionizing the way data is used. Accessing and analyzing data no longer requires the IT department's involvement; the data is accessible to all levels of an organization. Democratizing data lets people think and act quickly, bringing transparency and agility to fact-based decision-making.

We purchased an enterprise contract with The Qt Company because Qt gives us the expressiveness and the speed of a native UI framework with a very low maintenance cost and a nice support network behind us. We believe Qt will further our mission of providing the best user experience.
