SAT enters data analytics, AI and brings Tableau to Sri Lanka
South Asian Technologies (SAT), master distributors of leading ICT solutions, recently introduced Tableau, the world’s leading analytics platform to Sri Lankan users.
Aimed at helping people see and understand data, Tableau was created with the purpose of helping people and organisations take more data-driven decisions while simplifying raw data in an easy-to-understand format.
It helps visualise data that can be understood by professionals on any level within an organisation, making it easier for people to explore and manage data, which leads to better insights and discoveries that could help change the way businesses operate.
“With the increasing necessity for data visualisation in the workspace, now more than ever, organisations need proven solutions to help secure their data in businesses. Adding Tableau to our existing portfolio gives SAT a more omniscient opportunity to equip our partners and customers with the best. Tableau is an intuitive platform, and the SAT team is extremely excited at the prospect of securing our clientele with a product that has a proven history with Fortune 500 companies across the globe,” said SAT Group CEO Sanjaya Padmaperuma.
Organisations from non-profits to global enterprises across the board and industries use Tableau to equip their people with the right data. Through Tableau, corporations and individuals have been able to create a culture of data-driven decision-making like never before.
Never again will technical expertise hinder progress, as Tableau, with its user-friendly interface, has eased the process to enable self-analysis and report creation, allowing any member of the team to utilise the data created effectively.
Companies across the world have noted a direct impact on revenue growth after implementation, notably due to the visual analytics platform’s part in transforming the way people use data.
For nine years, Tableau has been recognised as the leader in the Gartner magic quadrant for analytics and business intelligence platforms. Today, Tableau is a part of the Salesforce company, combining the power of the world’s #1 CRM with the world’s #1 analytics platform.
