Tableau Desktop is an application that lives on your Windows or Mac computer, it enables the end users to quickly develop data products to change the way they think about viewing, understanding, and slicing their data. Tableau Desktop is freedom from the traditional business intelligence projects, waiting around to get started because the data is not prepared, one data source is not clean enough to use in a report, the data needs further classification to add more value, and then someone says maybe we need to build a “data warehouse” for reporting purposes.
