Tableau - what is it?

A key feature of Tableau is its intuitive nature, making it easy for anyone to learn. As a starting point, mainly drag-and-drop visualizations are used. I can accomplish what would normally take me days/hours in Excel in a matter of minutes with Tableau.

Additionally, you do not need to have any programming or data experience. As a matter of fact, you do not need to know any programming, which is what makes this tool so desirable for beginners.
