Tableau Software

Tableau has been changing the way data is presented. With a truly user friendly interface, you can create interactive visualizations and publish them to the internet. If you prefer a document, a .pdf can be also automatically generated.

Tableau is based in three easy steps: (1) Open a file (2) Create your analysis (3) Publish your dashboard.

Tableau supports many different types of files such as .xls, .txt or .csv.  After opening a file, Tableau will automatically identify which fields are Dimensions, and which ones are Measures. Definitely, it is a helpful functionally that Tableau has.

Tableau Desktop is the full Tableau version. The Personal Edition costs  999 USD. Tableau also offers the free Tableau Public which allows simple analysis in a friendly web-based interface.
