It aggregates emotional response ratings for various dimensions of the vendor-client relationship and product effectiveness, creating a powerful indicator of overall user feeling toward the vendor and product.
While purchasing decisions shouldn't be based on emotion, it's valuable to know what kind of emotional response the vendor you're considering elicits from their users.

If you鈥檙e thinking about using Tableau, I鈥檇 say go for it鈥攅specially if you work with a lot of data. Just be ready to invest some time learning the basics. Once you get comfortable, it becomes an amazing tool for turning complex data into clear, visual insights that actually make sense.
