IncentivizedUse Cases and Deployment Scope
A large group uses Workbench Enterprise, from super users to end-users. It makes it very easy for our teams across functions to access the database directly and view changes when tableau refreshes could be delayed or scheduled at a later time. It makes it easy for super users to make changes and updates, as well. It is a lot faster than most software we used in the past.
Pros
- Querying is easy and quick.
- Updating tables is very easy.
- It gives us very accurate error messages.
Cons
- It has autocompleted, but I find it difficult to use or get to use.
- It doesn't automatically complete table names or field names.

Workbench Enterprise is consistent across devices and users so far. It works the same, and access is easy.
I have a problem with its security. If you use an enterprise password to access databases, it's very easy to click the show password on the connection page and expose the enterprise password. You shouldn't allow users to use the same accounts to access the database because that means all users are sharing the same password.
