In the data-driven world, it is essential that we have our information on our fingertips. Microsoft has introduced its interactive and user-friendly analytical tool, Power BI to help you take your business decision.
Using Power BI, you can have all the company’s crucial information presented through reports and dashboards on a real-time basis. And access them from any location and any device. You can also include the reports in your PPT and prepare quick presentations without any hassle.
Microsoft has been providing reporting and BI platform technologies since long through SQL and MS Access. But, with Power BI it has ventured into the holistic BI gamut.
Power BI can connect with any software like SAP, MS Access, Excel, Spark, and Hadoop, etc. and import data to prepare centralized reports and dashboards. So, you can start using Power BI without changing your business’ existing environment.
You can integrate data directly from the cloud, on-premise, and hybrid systems, and model it according to your needs. It is compatible with Windows, iOS, and Android.
Along with different inbuilt visuals, you also have access to the broad market of online visuals at https://appsource.microsoft.com/en-us/marketplace/apps?product=power-bi-visuals. Using DAX (Data Analytics Expression language), you can customize any visual and create meaningful and dynamic reports.
Share the dashboards with your audience on a real-time basis. Using the on-premise gateway, you can set up and explore data available on your company’s server too.
Using Power BI, you can get answers to your BI queries in natural human language.
