Eye candy, aka visualization, is a selling point. Oooh pretty! How useful 
it really is is another question. I had access to the St. Louis Country 
data that I used for demos. 'Look! Ferguson is red on the heat map. That 
must be a high crime area.'  No shit.

'Business intelligence' is the buzzword. Dry old text reports are out. To 
give them their due, Microsoft's Power BI is the only one that you might 
be able to hand to a middle manager and they could achieve some level of 
competency.

I used Charts.js to enhance our text based reports with some success.

That's definitely not something a manger is going to pull off on his own, 
which is the holy grail of BI. Maybe Claude could help.
