Power BI is being used as a primary reporting tool across whole organization. It provides attractive GUI compare to other existing tools such as QlikView and Qliksense. Also it enables end users to build their own reports if data model is ready as development is very easy (drag and drop approach).
  • Attractive GUI compare to other tools
  • Development is easy
  • very low maintenance
  • Easy connectivity with other Microsoft platforms
  • Connectivity with more sources such as SAP
  • functionality to maintain history (snapshots)
If you have perfect data model ready and ETL team to build the data as per business need then its very amazing tool with eye catching GUI and development will be very quick.
but if you need to build snapshot kind of logic and need to maintain the history then this tool will not work.
