seaborn VS plotly

If you are doing data analysis I don't think any of the 3 pieces of software you mentioned are going to be that helpful.

I see these products as tools for data visualization and reporting i.e. presenting prepared datasets to users in a visually appealing way. They aren't as well suited for serious analytics.

I can't comment on Superset or Tableau but I am familiar with Power BI (it has been rolled out across my org), the type of statistics you can do with it are fairly rudimentary. If you need to do any thing beyond summarizing (counts, averages, min, max etc). It is not particularly easy.

For data analysis I use SAS or R. This software allows you do things like multivariate regression, timeseries forecasting, PCA, Cluster analysis etc. There is also plotting capability.

Both these products are kind of old school, I've been using them since early 2000's, the "new school" seems to be Python. Pretty much all the recent data science people in my organization use Python. Particularly Pandas and libraries like Seaborn (https://seaborn.pydata.org/).

The "power" users of Power BI in my organization tend to be finance/HR people for use cases like drill down into cost figures or Interactively presenting KPI's and other headline figures to management things like that.

It's referring to the seaborn library (https://seaborn.pydata.org/), a Python library for data visualization (built on top of matplotlib).

While it’s not perfect and it’s not ggplot2, Seaborn is definitely a big improvement over bare matplotlib. You can still use matplotlib to modify the plots it spits out if you want to but the defaults are pretty good most of the time.

Seaborn Documentation

You've done a great job presenting this. Maybe you already know, but seaborne is an extension of matplotlib that makes it pretty easy to "beautify" matplotlib charts

I'm sure that your package is great, but seaborn will soon support the interchange protocol and will work relatively seamlessly with polars. https://github.com/mwaskom/seaborn/pull/3340

First we need to install the Plotly. To create some very dynamic graphics, this tool helps a lot.

my good dude wake up and smell the plotly. Knowing the ins and outs of matplotlib is helpful but doing interactive stuff with jupyter I always use plotly.

I don´t know your workflow, but I use 2 markdown based presentations: obsidian advance slides and Quarto presentations. The former is a plugin for Obsidian, which is the software I use to take all my notes, write my thesis, etc., so It makes it extremely easy to make presentations since all my information is in Obsidian. In the other hand, Quarto is a publishing system (articles, presentations, websites books) that can be easily integrated with python and R. This makes it supper convenient for showing my data to my PI since I can analyze my data and at the same time make a presentation for the data. Besides this, Quarto also integrates with my Zotero library, so I can insert citations. Lastly, one thing that made my Quarto presentations infinitely better that the powerpoints, Is that I can insert interactive graphs with plotly, so when I'm showing my data, my PI is able to explore the data inside the presentation.

I'm using plotly.py now. This is why I love this community.

Depending on the nature of your reporting requirements, you could output a formatted Excel document with Python and a library such as openpyxl, and shove that into your SharePoint environment. This would be less dynamic than PBI reports can be, but may be sufficient. If you want viz as well, you can use something like ggplot or Plotly. Again, less dynamic than PBI for the same effort.
