What are the pros and cons of using a program like Tableau vs. Illustrator to create visualizations? I’ve just started a new data viz job where I have access to Tableau and an opportunity to purchase illustrator (which I’m trying to justify to myself). I get the impression that Illustrator could be very useful for creating visually appealing one-off charts and graphs—which I know I will be doing a lot of. Any insight is appreciated!
