A nicer alternative for non-US folks, or even those in the US, would be DataHero (https://datahero.com/). Less feature rich than Tableau, but also extremely easy to use with practical graphs and data mashups out of the box.

I have no connection to the app, other than I've tried dozens like it, including Google's Data Studio.

We use Klipfolio. Very nice, many chart types with many many more connectors.

I always see this as a bullet point discounting other more advanced tools. How many chart types exactly do you need? As far as I can tell, most analyses that anyone needs to do on tabular data (so ignoring graph like analytics) requires maybe 6 different chart types (bar charts, line charts, scatter plots, heatmaps). Those cover basically every possible combination of numeric and categorical data axes (including color and size of elements).
