Can build reports easily and offers unlimited view access of them in a single dashboard

Ivanti Xtraction provides reports in a single dashboard. We can ask the executive leadership to review it. It has unlimited view access. You can view the reports but won't be able to edit them. The solution makes it easy to build reports and send them. It has filters, and you can filter the results based on time, date, etc. The view will go back to normal once refreshed.

Livia Vasilescu

HR Manager at PPB

Use advanced data preparation features in analytics projects

Microsoft Power BI can be quite slow when working with data sources that aren't from a data warehouse or a more robust source or data artifact. When working with exports, which we do frequently, the load takes considerable time. This occurs with any BI tool, and it's related to our working methods due to limitations within the area. In HR, we typically use exports because we have numerous data sources. Ideally, Microsoft Power BI would have a no-code or low-code solution for the data sources to be built by the actual developers or development team. This would eliminate the need to work directly with exports. We would have a middle ground to create a warehouse without all the infrastructure, as building a warehouse within an organization can require substantial resources, both in time and personnel.

Pros

"Ivanti Xtraction provides reports in a single dashboard. We can ask the executive leadership to review it. It has unlimited view access. You can view the reports but won't be able to edit them. The solution makes it easy to build reports and send them. It has filters, and you can filter the results based on time, date, etc. The view will go back to normal once refreshed."

"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten."

"PowerBi is used to import our production data and generate dashboards, then integrates other Excel sheets to provide managers dashboards. This helps them get insights to make better OEE improvement decisions, mainly where to focus resources. We became able to see indicators from any time frame (day, week, month, or year), then could make better decisions."

"What Power BI is, is a whole collection of templates of small amounts of data that can be used to do something for a real world project, that can be easily set up and become the business intelligence environment or a data warehouse for a large amount of data, for a real world customer. That's what is remarkable."

"The most valuable feature is definitely the visual aspect and the DAX capabilities to virtually do anything."

"The solution integrates with other Microsoft solutions very well."

"Power BI's integration with other tools is very good."

"The product is intuitive and user-friendly."

"Implementation is very quick and the solution is very user-friendly."

Cons

"The tool's graphics need to be updated."

"The licensing needs improvement. There needs to be a middle option between Pro and Premium versions."

"The dynamic browsing tables could be better in Microsoft Power BI."

"The product could have better analytics capabilities."

"Microsoft BI typically connects to a database, often SQL Server, but it's also capable of connecting to multiple databases, pulling data from them, and allowing for data consolidation. You can then aggregate and generate dashboards and reports from this combined data. Personally, I wouldn't claim to have the expertise to suggest significant changes or additional features, as it functions quite well as is."

"This solution's performance when handling big data could be improved. Right now, if you're handling big data, the application becomes slow and the performance is very low."

"People without private emails cannot publish and, frankly, this doesn't allow for easy training."

"In an upcoming release, the solution could be simplified and have a more complete product package rather than a suite of products that we have to put together."

"Needs single sign-on."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"Its pricing is great."

"Once the trial period for the BI service is over, the cost is approximately $10 USD per user, per month, so it's quite reasonable."

"We have a professional license for Microsoft BI and the price is fair."

"If it has to be applied on the cloud, then it costs around $10 per month per user. For a pro license and for a premium license it's around $20 per month per user. If it has to be applied on-premises then, depending on the course of your server, you have to buy a software assurance version of the database."

"This solution came free, it was offered by Microsoft with our E3 license."

"The solution is priced well for what they offer. However, the premium version is very expensive."

"Microsoft Power BI has reasonable pricing."

"Licensing fees are paid on a yearly basis."
