SuperTables allows stakeholders to easily use filters and manipulate the data to get the necessary insights without ever leaving Tableau.
SuperTables saves analysts 30 minutes on filter setup and speeds up dashboard loading with applied filters by 30 seconds.
With PictureThis, product images are added alongside the data to create beautiful dashboards and easy reporting that are very user-friendly.
Savage X Fenty needed a centralized, efficient, and user-friendly reporting solution. Their previous SAAS tool lacked flexibility, forcing analysts and stakeholders to rely on manual processes and external spreadsheets. Filter setup was tedious, dashboards were slow to load, and adding product images for reporting was a time-consuming task. With a fast-paced business and highly analytical users, the brand needed tools that could support true self-service and streamline both backend setup and front-end usability, without compromising visual storytelling.
The answer came with SuperTables and PictureThis, extensions that brought efficiency, self-service, and visual storytelling directly into Tableau.
SuperTables is one of the premium Tableau extensions that Savage X Fenty brought into its dashboards. Before Tableau, Savage X Fenty was using another SAAS tool for reporting, which would not satisfy their needs and would often pose challenges in daily operations. The company wanted to bring all stakeholders into one central place for their reporting needs. This is where Tableau and extensions came into play!
Savage X Fenty is a highly data-driven company with very analytical stakeholders. These stakeholders needed to have the ability to manipulate the data in Tableau and drive their own insights with self-service. Previously, they would use a spreadsheet to fulfill these needs. However, moving to a central reporting platform required solutions within Tableau.
Initially, adding filters to the data was time-consuming, as it had to be done manually, and each filter had to be added one by one. From then, when the viewers wanted to use the dashboard, it would take a long time to load. The entire setup process and the use of the filters were inconvenient for the company.
In terms of applying filters on the back end, SuperTables saves analysts at least 30 minutes to set the filters in the dashboard. On the front end, it speeds up the loading process of a dashboard with applied filters by 30 seconds. Considering this time for multiple filters on hundreds of dashboards, it adds up to a lot of saved time for the users.
“Since SuperTables is so user-friendly, we find that our stakeholders intuitively know how to navigate the tool & feel empowered to conduct their own analysis. We’ve had great success introducing teams who power-use spreadsheets to Tableau by bridging the gap with SuperTables”Christina Springer
PictureThis is an essential solution for every retail company, such as Savage X Fenty. Being a creative fashion enterprise, the brand has a wide assortment of product categories and offerings. Having high-quality product imagery when analyzing the data is vital, as it is extremely helpful for communication and aligning on what is being reviewed.
In the past, the data team used a macro file containing all the codes of the product imagery. When hitting enter, this file would pull all the necessary images one by one, which would take a long time. Afterwards, the team would have to manually create a story with these images and the data and transform it into a report.
