Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Power BI

Power BI is used at my company to dig deep in datasets to find trends and to make concrete decisions. It is being used by the HR department but individual departments are using it to make department only decisions.
  • Easy to use
  • Information can be presented visually with the use of Power BI visualization features
  • Power BI can be connected to many data sources to access data
  • Updates and new features are done monthly by the Power BI team
  • Mobile app can only view dashboards and not create one
  • Power BI cannot be shared with users outside of the organization group
  • Desktop Power BI and online Power BI features are not 100% the same
Power BI visualization can show how many students enrolled, are absent, pass rate, fail rate....basically anything.
