Description

Tableau has for some time been one of the most popular Business Intelligence and data visualization tools available. Why? Because, quite simply, it’s a tool that’s responsive to the needs of modern businesses. But it’s most effective when you know how to get what you want from it – it might make your business intelligent, but it isn’t going to make you intelligent… We’ll make sure you’re well prepared to take full advantage of Tableau 10’s new features. Whether you’re an experienced data analyst that wants to explore 2016’s new Tableau, or you’re a beginner that wants to expand their skillset and bring a more professional and sharper approach to their organization, we’ve got you covered. Beginning with the fundamentals, such as data preparation, you’ll soon learn how to build and customize your own data visualizations and dashboards, essential for high-level visibility and effective data storytelling. You’ll also find out how to so trend analysis and forecasting using clustering and distribution models to inform your analytics. But it’s not just about you – when it comes to data it’s all about availability and access. That’s why we’ll show you how to share your Tableau visualizations. It’s only once insights are shared and communicated that you – and your organization – will start making smarter and informed decisions. And really, that’s exactly what this guide is for.

Who is this book for?

Got data? Not sure what to make of it? This is the guide for you – whether you’ve been working with Tableau for years or are just beginning your adventure into business analytics.

Learning on the job just wasn't cutting it at all as everyone here seems to fumble thru development. I felt much more confident after reading chapter 1.

This book made my job so much easier! We are implementing three new software applications: Tableau, Webi, and Alteryx. These books have been enormously helpful in figuring out what the lessons and job aids should be for new users. This book is easy to understand and I can use the practice files to set up the lessons and figure out content and then use my company's data sources for the actual course materials.This book has been a lifesaver on a project with a short timeline. My only complaint is that entirely too much space is spent on how Tableau works with lots of explanation. Frankly my dear, my users don't give a hoot. They don't want to know what it is and how it works. They want to know how to use it. So it could use a lot less on technical explanation and a lot more "cookbook".
