Tableau in Small Companies
How Small Companies Use Tableau
Many companies find that a single Tableau Desktop license is sufficient. After the dashboards are updated, they share the findings in these three common ways (at no additional cost):
- Screenshots from Tableau Desktop are pasted into PowerPoint decks
- PDF files are generated directly from the Tableau Desktop authoring software
- Consumers install Tableau Reader, and the authors provide them packaged workbooks (.TWBX files) for viewing and interacting with the dashboards
Many companies have continued to do this for months or years for large numbers of their employees.
