What is Tableau Public and how is it different from Tableau Desktop?
Tableau Public is a free software tool provided by Tableau that allows users to create and publish interactive visualizations on the web. It is different from Tableau Desktop in several ways. Firstly, Tableau Public is a cloud-based platform, meaning the visualizations created using Tableau Public are stored online and accessible to anyone with an internet connection. On the other hand, Tableau Desktop is a paid software that is installed on a user's computer and allows for more advanced functionality and data manipulation. Additionally, while Tableau Desktop allows users to save their work locally, Tableau Public requires users to save their visualizations to the Tableau Public website. Lastly, Tableau Public visualizations are public and can be viewed and shared by anyone, while Tableau Desktop allows for more private and secure sharing options within an organization.
