Power BI Desktopの評判・口コミ 全67件

As other reviews have stated, it is not easily shareable. For our purposes, each analyst has their own copies of analytic dashboards and we have to make special versions with pre-loaded data if we need to present out.

Also, while it is very nice that they keep adding features, as our developers incorporate new functions, all users have to individually update their Desktpop BI. We're approaching 90 analysts so this is becoming cumbersome even if it only takes a couple of minutes.

For our purposes Power BI has been a great tool and an excellent introduction to BI in general but it does belong in the Self-Service category for now until it is more enterprise-friendly to compete with big boys.

We had made several attempts at incorporating BI visualizations into our analysis but Tableau was out of our reach and SAS BI was too complex for the majority of our users. For us then, Power BI was eyeopening because it connected to all of our data sources and within weeks we were using the drill-down functionality to do visual analysis that we weren't previously capable of.

There is complexity and we have a couple of developers who dedicated themselves to learning the specifics and intracacies of DAX code and whom regularly download the latest updates to say current but for most users it is pretty straight forward.

What do you dislike?

Less flexibility than Excel with creating tables

What do you like best?

Easy to manipulate data and visualize trends

What do you dislike?

This software's formulas are a very different language than Excel, which means a complicated, difficult learning curve. It really takes time to adjust to and it is easy to mess up and "break" queries.

What do you dislike?

The product still seems so disjointed and incomplete. It is disjointed because you can do many features within Power BI desktop, but you still need to login to Power BI service in order to do simple tasks such as share a dashboard or report add row level security. While it is nice the product receives monthly updates, it is still lacking in many features. The interface still looks like it is from Office 2010 and does not have a modern interface. There is no way to easily choose a theme for your project. You either use the dull default theme or have to find/code a JSON file to bring to customize the theme for your project. There are still areas where you will need to use some DAX code to complete a task, however that seems to be minimizing more and more with each update. Another downfall of the product is that it is not updated through Windows update. In order to update the file, you are notified in small text in the lower right-hand corner of the software. From there you are directed to the Power BI website to download the new version of the software. Another pitfall is you are unable to combine static information and live (direct query) information together.

What do you like best?

The Power BI tool provides an easy method to create reports and dashboards to visualize your data. This allows you to present your data in a way that the raw data cannot, especially to those who need a graph or other visualization to understand the information. Also, you have the ability to use either static information or link to a server to provide live data through direct query.

Recommendations to others considering the product

Power BI Desktop provides many useful tools and features. However, it is not a finished product as it is being updated constantly. While it is great to have new features added on a regular basis, it is also frustrating to work with a software that is constantly in flux and incomplete.
