Tableau Cloud Migration Planner

by Zuar

Description

The success of your Tableau Cloud Migration is a product of the prioritisation of your business goals: identifying which dashboards are delivering the most value – and to which business stakeholders – is one of the most important things you will do when planning your migration, and it’s a key driver of ROI on your new or expanded Tableau Cloud deployment.

Zuar’s Accelerator enables you to de-risk your migration with an aggregated and detailed account of what needs to be migrated, compared to what is of lower priority, so that you can develop the right project and resourcing plans to make your organisation successful – and manage stakeholder expectations.

Server admins can connect this dashboard to the underlying PostgreSQL database within your Tableau Server, and then identify content that should be prioritised and managed, compared to content that is less relevant to the day-to-day decisions within your business. This can be helpful in any migration project, as it will ensure that you are capturing all your data during the migration process – and migrating only what is required.
