We work with a variety of powerful tools, but my top picks are Databricks for advanced data processing and analysis, Azure Data Lake for scalable data storage and analytics, and Power BI Service for bringing data to life through dynamic visualizations.

We use Board, effective but not much flexible.

We primarily use two analytics tools: Microsoft Power BI and, in specific use cases, Alteryx. Both are effective for data analytics and visualisation, and they serve our purposes well.

We use Alteryx and Tableau.  Our data lake is in Snowflake.  We've eliminated the legacy solutions (OBIEE, Oracle Discoverer).

I agree with Melissa's statement about the structure and curation. In additional to that, sometimes the structure you use in your foundational might also drive your decision about which analytics tools you are going to use on top of that. Currently I am focusing most of my scenarios in Power BI (even migrating solutions like Tableau and Qlik) to leverage the opportunities from my Azure-driven data platform. In the other hand, for some SAP-related-only data cases, I am using SAC.
