Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Power BI

Microsoft Power BI has enabled people at all levels to have easy access to data and analytics across the organization. It increases visibility to live and historic data and helps people make better decisions
  • Drill down to lower-level data
  • Visualize performance trends
  • Ability to join data from different sources
  • Improve geographic map visuals
  • Need SQL query editor
  • Write custom python code
Microsoft Power BI was a cheaper alternative to Tableau. It is part of the Office 365 universe, so easier connectivity to all Microsoft apps.
Well suited for exploratory analysis and visualization. Less suited to created advanced predictive modeling and fast high volume data.
