Tableau is a drag-and-drop analytics platform that turns rows of data into interactive maps, charts, and dashboards you can explore with a click. Now part of Salesforce, it connects smoothly to spreadsheets, CRMs, cloud warehouses, and even live property-listing feeds.

Recent releases add AI helpers—Tableau Pulse and Einstein Copilot—that surface patterns and plain-language explanations the moment fresh numbers arrive. For busy real-estate agents, that means swapping static spreadsheets for vivid visuals you can open on a phone during a listing presentation, helping clients “see” suburb trends, appraisal ranges, and campaign performance in seconds.
