I'd argue even 4-5 things can still be ok given they're significantly (enough) different sizes. Recently I needed to show how our online revenue was split between 5 different products and the pie chart worked perfectly.
- xnx 3y agoWith favorable numbers pie charts can be readable, but what makes them better than a bar chart?
- maroonblazer 3y agoAt least to my brain, showing 'parts of a whole' is easier to intuit in a pie chart than a bar chart. Again, the caveat being there aren't more than 4-5 parts and the sizes are different enough. That said, I'm now interested in asking around the office to see what others think. Maybe I'm an outlier and should switch to bar charts.
