“Tableau was just too restrictive. We needed a BI solution that was no longer just going to confine data to the data team. Everyone needs access to data and needs to be able to drive their decisions with data. That’s ThoughtSpot.”

Jonathan Seppi
Group Manager, Product Data Science

“Legacy BI requires a lot of technical resources, it's the antithesis of the AI revolution. ThoughtSpot gives business users the autonomy to manage their KPIs and have ownership of their data.”

Chet Mandair

“We quickly realized that Tableau is workbook-heavy with legacy client-server technology, and we shifted to ThoughtSpot for delivering real-time actionable insights, ease-of-use and learning, and collaboration.”

Dr. Luke Treglown
Director of Data Science
Thomas International

“We had 160 Tableau dashboards, but were using 4. Only 20% of the business was using Tableau. With ThoughtSpot, we’ve built 4 core Liveboards that then empowered 80% of our business to query their own data and make better decisions.”

See and understand data–without building any dashboards.

Static charts, request backlogs, stale data—using Tableau for your BI slows decisions and stalls innovation. Your data team is more than a Tableau dashboard, and your business team needs more than canned insights. ThoughtSpot's Agentic Analytics Platform empowers everyone to instantly explore data and unlock value that Tableau keeps out of reach.
