Best options for beginners: - Excel Being the industry standard, I'm sure you've heard of Excel and its many capabilities. Excel is an easy way to take a spreadsheet of data and immediately turn it into a chart without any complex processes or code. - Flourish Flourish is another great option for data visualizations. Where excel lacks, flourish picks up the slack. More uncommon charts such as beeswarm plots and network diagrams are made easy with Flourish as they come pre-built, just waiting for your data. - Datawrapper Datawrapper is an online tool with one of the least barriers to entry. - Infogram Infogram offers interactive charts, infographics, maps, and many free templates to tell compelling data stories. It supports data uploads from google sheets, dropbox, MySQL and more. - PowerBI PowerBI is another great data visualization tool. It has the extra processing power to work with larger sets of data. Their dashboards can also be more customizable than Excel. It's essentially a more powerful Excel. - Tableau Tableau is one of the most used programs in the business world. Tableau excels at visualizing even the most extensive data sets without limitations on the number of data points or rows. - Python Python is a programming language with many built-in libraries that make it possible to visualize data. Libraries such as Matplitlib, Pandas visualization, Seaborn, and Plotly make it possible to curate your data into a wide array of dashboards and visuals. - R R is another statistical language used for the analysis and visualization of data. It connects with various libraries that, with some coding, you can turn your data into visual insights.
