Verdict
Tableau Mobile and Infor Birst both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Infor Birst's written reviews are positive against 26% of Tableau Mobile's. Infor Birst also leads on monetization model (free vs freemium). Tableau Mobile's advantage is ratings volume (2.8K vs 11) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 3 months).
