Andrew Beers, Chief Technology Officer, Video Transcript

The following is the transcript of a video recording of Andrew Beers made available to the development team of Tableau in connection with the transaction beginning on June 11, 2019.

Andrew Beers: Hey Dev Team. Andrew here. First of all, I want to say that I’m sorry that I couldn’t be with you live today. I’m in Asia this week, so it is probably the middle of the night where I am right now. Hopefully, I’m trying to sleep off some of that jet lag. This week I’ll be attending a few conferences, and talking with customers and media about the great products that you are making each and every day. And that makes these meetings both easy and really fun for me, so thanks for everything that you do to help me achieve that.

So big news this week right! Well I wanted to take a couple minutes just to tell you what I’m excited about it. Now, first and foremost, it’s about our mission. In talking with the leaders at Salesforce in the past couple weeks, they really get our mission and they are genuinely excited about it and I really believe that. They see their customers going through their own transformations and how data-centric those transformations are, and they’ve seen the magic we’ve created with our products and how much those products help those customers. And those customers will continue to have data all over the place, so our platform-agnostic approach is something that’s still going to be a really key value that we bring to our products. So I know that they really see our mission and they really understand it and I know they are going to help us succeed in achieving that.

Now there is another thing that I notice there is some interesting complementary experience that we have—they are deep in a few different areas like CRM, and Marketing, and Service. And we are really deep in making fantastic experiences for general purpose analytics across a wide range of industries. And to me, this feels kind of like a peanut butter / chocolate kind of situation, where our respective strengths can support and enhance each other. And if you got a chuckle at my little Reese’s peanut buttercup reference there, you know they got a chuckle out of it too so I know they understand it and I know they agree with me.

Now another reason I’m excited is that we’ll have access to a whole bunch of interesting tech. Just start to imagine what would happen if we took all of the goodness of Hyper, Prep and VizQL and AskData and desktop and server and combine that with all the tech that Salesforce has built over the years. What would we do with their AI platform? Or their app building platform? Or their integration and collaboration platform? There are so many possibilities that will help us accelerate our mission to help people see and understand your data, which just blows my mind.

I think we’re going to be inspired by some of the things they have built over the years, and I know they are going to be inspired by some of the things we have done. This is just going to help us continue to innovate, which is great because I personally believe we have a lot of new things to create on our mission to help people see and understand data.

And innovate we must! We aren’t done with our mission. And Salesforce isn’t done with theirs. We are bringing together two great product and innovation companies to continue to bring amazing new capabilities and innovations to our customers and to customers that we haven’t even met yet. So strap in, I think this is going to be an amazing next adventure for Tableau. Thanks and I will see you next week when I am back.
