Salesforce said Thursday the transaction will bring together Tableau™s self-service analytics capabilities and Salesforce Einstein and Customer 360 customer relationship management tools to offer clients a complete artificial intelligence-powered analytics platform.
“Together we can transform the way people understand not only their customers, but their whole world”delivering powerful AI-driven insights across all types of data and use cases for people of every skill level, said Marc Benioff, chairman and co-CEO of Salesforce.
