	Pros & Cons from Real Users Pros It is simple to prepare and explore data with Microsoft Power BI. It is a great tool for data visualization. It is simple to data models with this tool. It is simple to analyze business data with Microsoft Power BI. Ability to make better and informed data-driven decisions. Power BI transforms a complex world of data into a playground of insights. The best part of using Power BI is state of the art ease to use interface, I belongs to a non technical background but i didn't found it difficult to start using Power BI from day one of using for sales analytics. I like a lot of of things about Microsoft Power BI, As i am using it since almost 2 years it has been a great tool for sales analytics which helps me keeps track of the organization's progress. Apart from this in aspect of Data visualization it provides a wide range of interactive & customizable charts, graphs & dashboards. This software is great for BI, especially visualization. It’s the most affordable software I’ve found that can accomplish this. Unlimited potential to drilldown, explore and play around with data. PowerBI's interface makes it easy to derive insights. Cons So far so good as I haven't experienced any shortcomings with Microsoft Power BI. The occasional lags into the reports have made us wait a lot sometimes while we are looking for right figures to measure overall efforts. This could be reduced to make it a perfect sales analytics solution. I haven't faced any major issue yet, apart from the minor one's which includes misalignment in report generation while preparing some extracting a report for LMS but later it also get solved. One more thing i'd like to mention in the cons column is that for a large organization like us its completely affordable but if we discuss about the smaller one's it may not be that much budget friendly. There are some features missing from this software, but they usually only exist in really expensive software. Slower than Tableau when it comes to ETL'ing datasets.
