Geckoboard vs Tableau: Which is best for you?

It provides good feedback on what is being displayed and offers a good amount of control over the page and its options so users are able to get to the data they need quickly.

You have to make sure emails you will send boards out to are set up before adding them because an opt in email gets sent, and they can't resend it, and it's a real pain to try to opt in afterwards (and doesn't always work.)

Tableau allows me to connect to the SQL in real-time, Excel, cloud data and create layered visualizations instantly.

Now I am used to it, but I found in the beginning it was hard to navigate the setup of site. When we onboard new users I see them struggling as well when trying to learn all the features.
