Tableau stands out for several reasons:
First, most of the BI tools are pricey, but Tableau has a free offering (Tableau Public) and a very popular (also free) academic distribution.
Tableau is well recognized by firms like Forrester Research to be one of the most easy-to-use and agile products currently available.
On the other hand, unlike some of the other BI tools, Tableau is not a complete technology stack; It is mostly useful for visualization and analytics. We will need other products in addition to Tableau for heavier enterprise data ETL, maintenance, storage, etc.
