Viz in Ten - MicroStrategy

Viz in Ten takes on MicroStrategy, an independent since 1989 visualization tool that has a slick look and showed great promise. 

Pros:
  1. Creating Calculated Fields was mostly intuitive
  2. A handful of out of the box vizzes that aren't common that can lead to flashier insights
  3. Overall, Nice look and feel to it. Clean with things generally where you'd expect them to be. 
Cons
  1.  Once you build a sheet you seemingly can't move it to a dashboard. That sheet could become a dashboard, but if you had two separate sheets it didn't seem like you could merge them.
  2. The number of boxes (Rows, sizes etc) on the left and ability to have multiple items in each box created many paths to failure. 
  3. Overall visuals lacked a little ... oomph? With the final product it was just a bit bland looking.
