Beautiful charts with a little training
What do you like best?
This is a wonderful Data Visualization software that's a big upgrade from typical Excel charts. Once you figure out how to use it, it does most of the "heavy lifting" for you. It can guess what charts you might want, and is very helpful with analysis.
What do you dislike?
It takes a little bit to learn. It's not immediately clear what everything means, how to access data, and get started. With some training however it begins to make sense.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Play around with the different types of charts and figure out how to switch you x and y axes. That will really open up what you can make.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
Tableau can create beautiful charts to share out with those making decisions, but also does great data analysis while visualizing. More specifically - it allows us to analyze student data, and display in a way that's understandable to make decisions about our program.
