We are utilizing this product for the development of real-time updating data market and dashboards for the provisioning and monitoring of marketing analytics. Moreover, by the means of the Microsoft Power Bi tool we integrating dozens of data sources into single data market, which includes Oracle Database System, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, MariaDB, data stream from RabbitMQ, and integration with ELK stack.
  • Real-time dashboards representing data and marketing analytics
  • Integration of several types of data sources such as Oracle SQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB and so on
  • Unified data market composed of different dashboards from different data sources that are being updated automatically in the real-time manner
Cons
  • Proper integration with ELK stack - we have encountered that there is no direct way of integration, therefore we have done it through a "bypass" way which is not convenient
  • Very crowded user interface - the entry-level bar is high for average digital users. Also, it is blocking the view of the dashboards.

This product is very convenient to use and implement and is considered a "de facto" standard in the Business Intelligence sphere. First of all, it contains numerous features in terms of visualization, data provisioning, data source integration which makes it a perfect tool for the development of BI analytics. Secondly, it provides great capabilities for the development of data markets for the whole development team. Thirdly, the sharing capabilities of dashboards that are updated in a real-time manner provides great incentives for end-users.

Our company uses the Microsoft Power BI in order to find relationships and visualizations of the relationship between productive variables that are difficult to correlate only by intuition. Is especially useful to produce an easy-to-understand visualization from the data we have into our ERP, which lets the management spend less time looking at unsorted numbers.
  • Correlate variables
  • Data visualization
  • Ease of understanding of correlation between productive data
Cons
  • Some of the connections could be more easy to configure
The scenario where it shines more is in the treatment of data that is not easily correlated at first sight, it helps to find causes of unsuccess in productive environments. The only thing that is required is to have properly collected data to feed to Power BI, so it won't be useful in environments where the data is not collected with care, since the representations won't be representatives of the reality.

Best analytical tool to share your dashboards.

We use power BI in our organization for reporting and data transformation. It has a very intuitive interface. It has easy integration with the Microsoft ecosystem. You can easily embed your Power BI reports and charts into any web-based app easily. You can also embed these reports and visuals into your email newsletters.
  • It is very easy to connect multiple data sources for a single report. You can use CSV, Excel, database integration, etc.
  • Power Bi supports Python as well, which makes it a lot easier for us as it is known by most of our team.
Cons
  • Power BI takes a lot of time to import .xlb files compared to CSV files. CSV files usually are large in size compared to .xlb.
  • DAX programming (power bi programming language) requires some learning curve.
If you need to pull in data from multiple sources to prepare your dashboard which you share with your customers, Power BI embedded can be a very good tool. You can use your brand colors and style for your company branding experience. You can also allow your user to add filters and sorts to do their own analysis on the go.

We use this outward for everything and anything from planning meetings to submitting work. It is a very easy-to-use software that anyone can use. Our supervisors give us work through this software which is again easy to see and use. I would recommend this software to anyone working in school or outside.
  • Easy to use.
  • Very helpful data.
  • Data is well laid out.
Cons
  • The amount of time it takes to collect all the data.
  • Signing in takes longer than expected.
  • Cost is a bit high.
While working in a company is always necessary to look at reports and data from different sections. In my internship, I was placed in a team with over 40 people, and to help tackle a problem we needed to have a central area where we shared work and also shared data.

There are two main ways in which we use Microsoft Power BI Embedded in The University of Sydney (in the context of academic / teaching staff in the School of Architecture, Design, and Planning). Firstly, Power BI is used to provide information about the students that are enrolled in different study units. This includes such information as country of origin, age, chosen degree, first language, grades, etc. This information is visualised as bar, radial, or line charts, which are very intuitive to use and understand. It is also easy to sort and search for required information. This is really helpful for me as a course coordinator because it allows me to know my students better and adjust my courses delivery accordingly. Secondly, Power BI is used to communicate information about our teaching loads. Again it is a pretty intuitive tool with an easy-to-use interface, which is able to communicate complex data in a very engaging way.
  • visualizes complex data (from excel tables)
  • engaging look
  • easy embedding to web
Cons
  • it mostly only allows one way interactions
  • user interface can be improved
  • limits on including data
Microsoft Power BI Embedded is an effective tool for creating data visualisations and communicating those custom visualisations to your audience online. It is well integrated with Excel, which is really handy if you already use Excel in your work environment.
