Exploring Tableau Connector for ServiceNow

 

Quick access to actual and relevant business data is crucial to running and managing a business and making timely decisions.

Consolidating all data sources in a single place to transform and combine data into a suitable visualization provides a significant advantage to any business in a fast-changing world. Tableau is one of the most popular BI software for building complex business reporting. Companies only have to set up the needed integrations to get all necessary data into Tableau for reporting and analytics. And here is where Alpha Serve has the best competence.

Along with Tableau Connectors for Jira, Zendesk, and Shopify, we have developed a convenient ServiceNow Tableau integration - Tableau Connector for ServiceNow.

Tableau Connector for ServiceNow is an Enterprise-grade solution that allows building complex data models, dashboards, and reporting in Tableau Server or Tableau Cloud based on ServiceNow data.

Thus, it enables users to visualize and analyze ServiceNow instance data that they imported to the Tableau Server or Tableau Cloud.
