Tableau Review
Tableau can sometime be more frustrating than helpful, so truthfully i avoid using it as often as possible.
Pros
Tableau organizes iHeartMedia's library of podcasts so account executives can access data for each individual show. I like that I can sort podcasts by multiple different values, such as demographics or downloads.
Cons
The iTunes categories is a search engine and not a dropdown from which we could select categories.

The best Visualization Solution
Really impressed on the way this tools works, as easy as drag and drop fields in an Excel pivot table, in addition, Tableau won't allow yo to develop wrongful charts.
Pros
We really like the easiness to upload and prepare data visualizations, charts, graphics and dashboards. It works with the mains data files such as text crv, xls and google sheet documents. They have a free version which present the main functionalities, perfect for a small business, then if you need to upgrade to a paid version the process is very simple. Their forums and community really support, and help to improve, learn and develop great visualizations.
Cons
As any other solution, it takes some investigation and learning to understand the way it works and how to prepare robust presentations in Tableau. Some older versions do not allow roll back. Some sharing and analytic challenges are presented and really wish they develop additional features.
