Tableau vs SAS Visual Analytics

Lately, I have been working on using Tableau and SAS Visual Analytics for different clients at work… I have documented few differences of these products out of my experiences so far….

I will keep adding to this document as and when my time permits possible….I hope others can contribute to this document as well….

For the same SAS dataset that contains S&P 500 index companies by sector as the source for Tableau desktop and SAS Visual Analytics…

Tableau 9.1.1 can now read SAS datasets

Hey Folks,

I guessed this was coming...I just noticed that Tableau 9.1.1 can now read SAS datasets...Even Tableau Public has that option...

The "Statistical File" option in the "Connect" menu allows to load the SAS dataset....

I'm sure SAS won't be happy in one way considering SAS VA adoptability....But the positive side of it is that more clients will learn and adopt dashboard visualizations i.e. expand the BI dashboard providers market...
