Problems you’ve probably Experienced with Microsoft Excel

  • Excel becomes slow or crashes when you have lots of rows of information or too many charts

  • It’s difficult to remember or write formulas

  • You can’t remember which file is the latest version and end up working on the wrong one

  • It’s annoying having to email multiple Excel files to the same people everyday

  • It takes hours create a usable and robust dashboard

What is Tableau?

Tableau solves all the above issues!

The beauty of Tableau is its intuitive nature and makes it easy for anyone to learn it. When getting started its mainly drag-and-drop visualizations. What would usually take me hours/days in Excel I can do in a few minutes in Tableau.

Another advantage is that don’t need to have any programming/data experience like I did a few years ago! In fact, there is no programming to be done which is what makes this tool so desirable for beginners like you!!!
