Customer

The customer is a diversified business-to-business rental company that rents and sells relocatable modular buildings, storage containers and offices, and electronic test equipment. A publicly traded entity, the firm caters to customers across education, construction, government, healthcare, retail, and transportation sectors and has branch offices spread across North America. Approximately 99% of the company’s revenue is generated from the North American market. With a robust presence, it serves around 23000 customers and employs roughly 1200 people.

Business Challenges

The customer migrated to a modern analytical platform using Tableau to create interactive dashboards with a lot of vertical data. However, despite the upgrade, it still couldn’t deliver scheduled reports to its frontline and corporate users in pdf/excel formats without losing scrolled data. The customer needed a solution that would allow it to distribute complete and well-formatted reports from Tableau in a timely manner to its more than 100 end-users across sales, finance, and marketing functions who relied on data-driven insights for their business decisions.

USEReady Solution

USEReady implemented Pixel Perfect for Tableau, a reporting extension that enabled users to generate and distribute print-ready, well-formatted reports from Tableau. The solution ensured that customer’s frontline and corporate users received Pixel Perfect reports in .pdf and .xlsx formats with data and images without scrollbars, resulting in a report that shows complete data present in the dashboard. These reports came with customized headers, footers, and pre-defined layout.

Moreover, Pixel Perfect provided a robust scheduling functionality for distributing these reports in daily, weekly, and monthly frequencies to the users.

Conclusion
