Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft BI (MSBI)
Microsoft Power BI is a beautiful and powerful data visualization tool that we use. It is a robust business analytics tool with excellent visualizations. Excel files, OneDrive, and third-party tools like SQL databases are all supported. We can use the Query revised feature to edit and transform our data, accessible anywhere. It makes it simple to import data from Excel or other sources. Many options are available for visuals, including custom visuals added to any report. With these data visualization charts, real-time automation is possible. For non-technical users, the Power BI desktop has the best part: it is simple to use. Basic visualizations can be created using a variety of drag-and-drop options. Microsoft Power BI has been fascinating to observe how visuals interact between pages.
- Easy customization of workspaces for different project groups via a dashboard and a drag-and-drop interface.
- Easy report generation and data attribute comparison across applications. Perfect for data-only devices.
- Visual Studio integrates database, ETL, reporting, and analytics development. Large technical user community and rich tool feature set.
- Costs are high compared to the competition, and it could be more user-friendly.
- As a browser-based app, it doesn't have as many eye-catching charts and graphs as some others, and some browsers are better than others at running it.
- Most of the tasks require a pro version, and proper training is necessary to use it, but you can learn how to use it.
- Increased data compatibility and presenting data to clients is much easier, which has helped with our reportings to the clients.
- A better understanding of multiple functions aside from cost has significantly impacted quickly generating visualizations for our data.
- The financial impact has been pleasantly surprising from using it, and Quicker report generation and data management tools are better in the long run than saving data on raw CSV.
Better integration with Microsoft products is one of the advantages of using Business Intelligence (BI). It's simple to understand, and plenty of resources are available to outsource it. Many of our existing clients have Microsoft licensing agreements. It's an obvious path when decision-makers want to achieve the outcome with the least amount of additional licensing costs. But first, it's essential to understand the client's goals for the data journey.
