What Tableau costs at 25, 100 and 500 seats
Annual software spend computed at $15/user/month — Tableau's published per-seat rate. That is not always the same as the headline "starting from" price, which often refers to a single-user or entry plan. Implementation, integrations and support are on top.
| Seats | Tableau / year | Category range / year |
|---|---|---|
| 25 | $4,500 | $4,350 – $6,000 |
| 100 | $18,000 | $17,400 – $24,000 |
| 500 | $90,000 | $87,000 – $120,000 |
Category range is the 25th–75th percentile of published per-seat rates across 3 embedded bi products, median $15/user/month.
