Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Power BI
Currently, Microsoft Power BI is being used by some departments on our organization. Basically, the financial department, and the IT department. Microsoft Power BI is very useful to build numerous dashboards in order to support post-data gathering for all core processes. Furthermore, Microsoft Power BI can build many possible charts. We can use them to show information or even full interactive presentations, that in Microsoft Excel we could not do. Microsoft Power BI has integration with the other Microsoft business tools, and this is really helpful.
- The cost of it, really affordable.
- Power BI has a great integration with other tools like Office 365, Azure, etc.
- Navigation is very similar to Microsoft Excel, so if you are already acquainted with Excel, you'll have no problems with BI.
- Great variety of chart types, I think it is around sixteen different ones.
- If you are not a Microsoft Excel power user, it can be a little challenging to use.
- Slow performance if you have a huge amount of data to analyze.
- Has a very bulky user interface.
As I already said, Microsoft Power BI adds up to Microsoft Excel. It is a more powerful and more complete tool when you talk about business analytics solutions. Microsoft Power BI provides interactive visualizations and business intelligence capabilities with a simple enough interface for end-users to create reports and dashboards.
