Not bad for a v1 guys - I especially like the waterfall chart as a funnel visualization. The comparative column and bar charts seem a bit noisy though - might be as simple as using thicker bars and columns, then again might not.

very cool!

why did you exclude the basic line chart from the 'relationship' category but include the two-axis line-column chart?

Excellent tool, thanks guys! I've sent it round the office so now everyone can create clear, uncluttered charts. RIP grey background!

Awesome. It would be great if you add Numbers for ac format for uploading.

Guys, great tool much like the Chart Cleaner! I also understand that you aren't going to be able to please everyone.

The good: Excel downloads that show the table templates (specifically for the waterfall chart, which many people have trouble with), color schemes and formating are excellent, interactive selecting is great, inclusion of bullet charts and pushing less chartjunk is a big plus.

Opportunity: I see some downfalls with the options that are presented to me. Much like some of the dashboard tools, it gives me the option of what's available, but does not indicate what is optimal. For example, by selecting Composition, I get everything from bar charts to waterfall charts, to pie charts, to tables. It may be helpful to possibly rank which are the most effective. Why use a pie chart when a bar chart is a better choice. Or, use a stacked bar chart (I find very ineffective) when a line graph is probably better.

I think the objective here is to show what's possible and appeal to the masses. I just question your design when you have previously voiced that some of these break the fundamental rules of data visualization (pie charts).

Outstanding work!

This is awesome! Great time saver. Thanks for the great posts and tips.

Great tool! With Chart Cleaner you open mi mind to a whole new world of graphics. This is an excel-ent addition to my arsenal. Many thanks!

Great!
Using it right now for my scorecards!

I really appreciate your work... the charts are really cool... I am going to use them at work... thanks guys

I'm sure it's a great tool, but http://chartchooser.juiceanalytics.com/ makes Firefox on XP fall over.

Hmmm... is it only available for US users? Doesn't work from my place - Switzerland. Neither in Safari nor in Firefox. Just some kind of legal note appears...

thank you for this! it's going to be very, very useful for entrepreneurs and business owners.

Nice job!

The line chart uses a legend to identify the 4 data series in the example. Legends add an extra step for chart readers, they have to move their eye back and forth between the lines and the legend. This can interfere with quick, easy chart interpretation.

Why not use series labels to make it easier for the reader? I've modified your line chart file to add a procedure which adds series labels instead of the legend.

Kelly - Nice job! The link in your post above didn't work, so I just went to your site to find the example. I am a big fan of your changes. I would always opt for series labels versus a legend. They take up less space and make it more visually appealing.
