Case Study: GLADD K.K. achieves 20–30% faster analysis and unified reporting with Tableau Software

GLADD K.K. - Customer Case Study

GLADD K.K. is an invitation-only online flash sales company that coordinates roughly 3,000 brand partners and runs about 300 events per month. The buying and merchandising teams faced fragmented data across MySQL, PostgreSQL, Google Analytics and Salesforce and relied on Excel for analysis, which couldn’t handle the volume—making reporting slow and constraining timely, data-driven decisions.

By deploying Tableau to connect directly to those sources, GLADD unified and visualized its data in standardized reports, removing Excel bottlenecks and enabling one-stop analysis. The change cut analysis preparation time by about 20–30%, sped timeline slicing by up to 30%, improved understanding of event data and decision-making, and delivered visual reports that better meet the needs of fashion and cosmetics partners.
