What is Tableau used for in analytics and reporting?
Tableau helps teams move from trusted data to insights and decisions. It’s designed for conversational analytics (asking questions to explore data) and for creating data experiences like dashboards and visualizations, with additional tools for viewing key trends and acting on what you find.
How does Tableau’s conversational analytics (“chat with your data”) work?
Tableau enables you to go from a question to insight faster using conversational analytics powered by Tableau Agent. It’s built to help you uncover key trends and personalize what you learn as you work.
Is Tableau no-code or do I need to code to build dashboards and data experiences?
