Overall Satisfaction with Google Charts

Google Charts is simple and has been used by my organization to fulfill the needs of design and implementing cheap, easy, and visually stunning charts for our survey data. We need these charts for our presentations to clients and to potential client-prospects to show their data in a way that is consumable and not intimidating or confusing.
  • Fast chart creation.
  • Functionally simple.
  • Pricing is great.
  • More complex list of chart types.
  • More features that would make these charts beautiful rather than basic.
  • Training sessions.
Tableau Online is pricier but will give you more. You pay for what you get when it comes to Google Charts - free with your Google Suite. Where Tableau is smart, Google Charts is quick and simple. In the end, it comes down to money and how complex you need to make your presentations.
Google Charts is okay. There are others out there that will create the dashboard from your data charts and organize it in a way that makes and removes the responsibility from the user. Google Charts is something that is used when you need a specific chart immediately, don't want to spend a lot of time on it, and need to move on to your next task.
