Likelihood to Recommend In operations we use the tool for many different topics, from factory quality systems to high level reviews. We have created kind of an internal "App Store" based on Power BI where you have a lot of different dashboards for different solutions (cost, cash, health and safety, sales, factories, distribution centers...) and you as an user just need to get in that "App Store" and enter in whatever tool can be useful for you. It is open to all the operations employees and can use on demand. Also it has raised the imagination of our colleagues, as they are not only working by themselves creating new reports, but also raising fantastic ideas that can be extended for the usage of all the community.
Read full review Best suited for scenarios involving detailed analysis of customer data and demographics. Allows for complex investigation of customer and audience details. Less well suited for scenarios involving simultaneous collaboration on analysis. This product is not the best for collaboration and is better suited for individual work and individual forms of analysis.

Read full review I just like the manner it handles the analytical rationalization of giving a standing and updates of the inner and outside beliefs of Marketing analysis. It facilitates me apprehend clients' desires and offers advice on a way to fulfill their desires. When I am making plans and instinctually recognise what purchasers are going to purchase, I depend upon their real-time records to validate my assumptions and tell our media buys. Automatic rewards with the media Connections. The availability of records and the alternatives to make our customer's picks understandable. Read full review Cons The desktop app is great but needs a lot of performance improvements No MacOS Version for the Desktop app, this is a big limitation for business since executives prefer Macs Premium Cloud Version of Power BI is awfully expensive On-Premise Version of the Power BI Reports Server is bundled only with SQL Server Enterprise License and cannot be purchased separately and requires Software Assurance Subscription On-Premise Power BI Report Server doesn't support ADFS, AzureAD or any Claims-Based authentication platform, a sad disadvantage for enterprises Read full review More segments need to be created as often as possible Sometimes it is hard to optimize these segments when the CTR is low - segments make it difficult to pull out zones/sites that are dragging down the CTR because they are so narrowly targeted.

Read full review I still use exelate every day for my media plans that are either direct response or extremely geo-targeted.
Read full review Usability At this point, I think we all know who has taken the lead in the business intelligence and analytics market worldwide. With fresh new updates every other day on top of an already robustly built product with all features that one can dream of is a no brainer, I feel. Microsoft will invariably be synonymous with quality and professionalism.
Read full review Very easy to utilize. Features are basic. Again just not too much in the way of involved customization
Read full review Support Rating I can't really speak to the support overall, [but] I will say that in the almost three years I have used the system, I have only needed to contact their support team once. I think the team was helpful, but it did take some time for us to resolve the issues/ request that they had. I guess the good news is that the system is pretty stable, and I personally have rarely needed to contact their technical support team.

Read full review Alternatives Considered [Microsoft] Power BI is practical and effective, like a hammer for a nail, it is easy to use and produces very quickly the results that in most cases are urgently required by clients (nice reports to share on the web). To start using [Microsoft] Power BI you need a business email address, with that you create an account in Power BI Service and in less than 1 hour you will have installed Power BI Desktop, a report will have been created and it will have been published on the web .
