Tableau is named a Leader by Gartner for the fifth consecutive year for BI and analytics

Tableau, a global player in visual analytics, has announced that Gartner has positioned the company as a Leader in its 2017 Magic Quadrant for Business Intelligence and Analytics Platforms report. The annual report evaluated 24 different software vendors on 15 critical capabilities in addition to naming Tableau a Leader for the fifth consecutive year.

Tableau was also positioned the highest for 'Ability to Execute' for the fourth consecutive year. Tableau believes this recognition establishes its analytics software as the first choice in the industry.
