"Best platform to present and understand Data!"
What do you like best about Tableau?

The userfriendly features makes data presentation and storytelling very easy to present to the higher management or clients; even these can be used to watch and track the performance of the individuals.

What do you dislike about Tableau?

Some knowledge of Python is necessary to automate the data that needs to be present. Thus, few people find it difficult to make data visuals on tableu. However, basic knowledge of Python can help you to present data in a unique way that can be understood by anyone.

What problems is Tableau solving and how is that benefiting you?

We can merge different data sources to create new forms of data as well. Data visualization is so brilliant with its vast choices of filters and sorts that it results in impressive story telling about the data.Also the automated data updates can save time of the users instead of refreshing the data sources every time new data comes or any changes in data happens.
