• Private alpha to public: how we took feedback from this community to make a less-crappy app

  Hey all, full disclosure, I'm working on usebracket.com, a no-code way to sync Airtable & Google Sheets with larger databases (like Postgres & MySQL). We've been in private alpha for a while, and I've gotten on feedback calls with a couple of people from this community. I just wrote a blog post that talks about how we're taking that feedback into account with our public alpha! Wanted to share here because, well,... Source: about 1 year ago

• How we used feedback from this community to make a less crappy web app

  Hey all, for background, I'm working on usebracket.com, a way to sync Airtable with larger databases (like Postgres & MySQL). We've been in private alpha for a while, and I've gotten so much great feedback from this community. Source: about 1 year ago

• Resources that make Airtable 10x more valuable

  What we use at a series B startup that actually helps our sales & customer service teams leverage Airtable without needing engineers 1. Stacker: No-code software builder tool on top of Airtable. Build internal tools for user-facing interfaces 2. Mini extensions: Useful extensions on top of Airtable for common use-cases 3. Bracket: Pull your database data into Airtable and write back to your database from Airtable.... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Sync Snowflake and Google Sheets

  Your next best bet is to use a more technically savvy solution: ETL (or ELT) and reverse ETL. ETL and reverse ETL can help ensure a single source of truth for your company. However, ETL and reverse ETL are pricey to sync both ways, you need 2 separate providers, they aren’t optimized for speed because teh fastest they sync is hourly, and you still need to handle merge conflicts. Method #4: Use Bracket for two-way... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Two-way syncs across your data stack and SaaS tools

  Setup-intensive and costly for smaller companies and startups (a bit like cracking a walnut with a sledgehammer). Method #4: Use Bracket for two-way syncs (https://usebracket.com) Sometimes, you just want the same data to show up in two different places in real-time. Getting your Airtable and Postgres to mirror each other, or your Notion and MongoDB to show the same data, can significantly reduce data sharing... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Tableau Certified Data Analyst Exam Readiness

  Hey everyone, I'm interested in taking the Tableau Certified Data Analyst Exam Readiness course through tableau.com to prepare and get Tableau certified. I had some questions about the course, such as are the videos pre recorded or in person, do you have access to the material once the 90 days expire, and I was also wondering if anyone had input/advice for this course. Thanks! Source: 12 months ago

• Where to publish knowledge sharing on Tableau reverse engineering and data dictionary generation?

  Could anyone recommend what media I should approach to publish my work (internet or print). I could try the Tableau forum in tableau.com but it's not very active + Tableau may be unappreciative as my work overlaps with their (pricey) data management solution. Plus it needs to be some high visibility / reputable media to count for my career development. Any recommendations welcome thanks!!! Source: over 1 year ago

• I have huge loads of data in Redshift. How can I make this available to end-users after performing few procs and queries? It should be available online.

  Tableau public: tableau.com. Big player but your data will be made public and not really user-friendly data model. Source: over 2 years ago

• What tips do you have on evaluating various BI tools for business needs? What are the essential criteria's you would include when evaluating different tools? The goal is to have an unbiased, objective approach.

  For example, we have a project to compare Tableau, Power BI, and InetSoft. The need for strong pagination-based email delivery eliminated Tableau. AWS's Linux instance is the targeted platform which makes Power BI less than ideal. Source: over 2 years ago

• Anyone go into Data Analytics after this program?

  I just started learning Tableau because our dept is transitioning into Tableau from Power BI. Since I already have years of experience with Power BI I just went over their tutorials from tableau.com and got onboarded pretty quick. I'm still learning it but I'm at least able to build out reports and get things done. Its not too difficult to pickup one BI tool when you have experience with another. Source: over 2 years ago
