I have always thought that Tableau was initially just a cool way to create Excel pivot tables and populate the results in a graphic – something you can do in Excel, but was a lot easier in Tableau. Is Powerpivot the MS answer to these tools that have leveraged excel, but have not used the excel visualization capabilities or been willing/able to write the VB code to get Excel to do what you want it to do?
I do not have Office 2013, but look forward to playing with this when I do.
