From Data Analysis to Real Work, Yes In One Platform
Slingshot is the Tableau alternative built for teams that need analytics connected to execution. See your data, assign tasks, and collaborate without extra tools.
Why Teams Switch From Tableau Studio to Slingshot
It’s not enough to know what happened. Slingshot helps your team do something about it. Create tasks directly from dashboard insights. Discuss metrics in context. Track progress alongside performance data. No exports, no tool switching, no delays between insight and action.
-
One Workspace for Data and Work Dashboards, tasks, chat, and files share the same space. Your team can see KPIs and assign follow-up work in a single view. Collaboration happens where decisions get made. You stop paying for Tableau, project management, Slack, plus file storage.
-
Project Management Built into Analytics Slingshot includes native project and task management, so work moves forward the moment insights appear. Assign owners, set priorities, and track progress without leaving your dashboards. Tasks stay tied to the metrics that triggered them, giving teams visibility into both performance and execution. No separate project management tool. No disconnected updates.
-
Built for Marketing Teams, Not Just Analysts Slingshot works for people who need answers, not complex data modeling. Build dashboards with drag-and-drop simplicity. Connect data sources in minutes. Get insights without SQL or technical dependencies. Marketing, operations, and leadership teams use it daily without analyst support.
-
Faster Time to Value Start analyzing data in hours, not weeks. Pre-built templates get you running immediately. Intuitive interface requires zero training. Your team adopts it naturally because it works the way they think. No lengthy implementation. No specialist team required.

But Here’s What You’re Missing If You’re
Just Using Tableau
Analytics Disconnected from Execution
Tableau dashboards sit apart from daily work. You see problems but solve them elsewhere. Slingshot connects insights to tasks, so action happens immediately.
Tool Sprawl and Context Switching
Analysis in Tableau. Tasks in Asana. Chat in Slack. Files in Drive. Every tool switch loses context and wastes time. Slingshot keeps everything together.
Slow Adoption Across Teams
Tableau requires training and technical skills. Non-analysts avoid it. Slingshot works intuitively for everyone, driving faster adoption and broader usage.
High Total Cost of Ownership
Licensing scales quickly. You pay for Tableau, then pay again for collaboration and project management tools. Slingshot gives you one platform at one price.
