Tableau: data visualisation that drives your decisions

Discover Tableau, the reference in data visualisation

Tableau is a business intelligence platform that turns your data into interactive visualisations everyone can understand.

Spotting a margin drop on a product line, comparing branch performance on a map, tracking the sales pipeline week after week: with Tableau, you explore your data with drag and drop and get immediate visual answers, without waiting for a report from IT.

Tableau is built around four functional pillars:

From exploration to distribution, the platform covers the whole analytics cycle.

1. Visual exploration: ask your data questions

The VizQL engine turns every drag and drop into an instant visualisation.

  • Explore your data with drag and drop, without writing queries
  • Test hypotheses and switch analysis angles in seconds
  • Apply trends, forecasts and statistical groupings in one click
  • Build advanced visualisations: maps, charts, multi-axis analyses

2. Data connectivity: every source at your fingertips

Tableau connects to your files, databases and warehouses, live or through extracts.

  • Connect files, databases and cloud warehouses like Snowflake or BigQuery
  • Choose between live connections and performance-optimised extracts
  • Prepare and clean your data upstream with Tableau Prep
  • Blend several sources within a single analysis

3. Sharing and governance: dashboards for the whole company

Tableau Cloud and Tableau Server distribute your analytics in a secure environment.

  • Publish your dashboards for your teams, on the web and on mobile
  • Manage access rights and the governance of certified data sources
  • Schedule data refreshes and email subscriptions
  • Alert the right people when a KPI moves off target

4. Salesforce ecosystem and AI: augmented analytics

As part of the Salesforce family, Tableau keeps gaining AI capabilities.
