Tableau helps people to see and understand data. Our software products put the power of data into the hands of everyday people. This allows a broad population of users to engage with their data, ask questions, solve problems, and create value. Based on technology developed at Stanford University, our product reduces the complexity, inflexibility, and expense associated with traditional business intelligence applications. Anyone who is comfortable with Excel can leverage Tableau Desktop to create rich, interactive visualizations and powerful dashboards using a drag-and-drop user interface, as well as share them securely across organizations using Tableau Server or Tableau Online.
