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.

Robust system consistently elevates data visualization and seamlessly updates with user-driven advancements

Power BI is a general-use visualization system. I can express the performance of our network through high-level key performance indicators. It allows me to show detailed improvements in quality and safety and patient experience. I create improvement dashboards for task forces and work teams. I have built analytic dashboards that guide analytics, enabling research and dataset manipulation.

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."

"It is easy to use. It has got a desktop where people can develop their own dashboards. Basically, we have figured out how to connect finance contracts and all programs for the government agency. So, they can see everything in a dashboard. So, it is very easy to use from a technical standpoint of view."

"They find Power BI's data pull mechanism to be sufficient and cost-effective, especially considering the stability it provides. In comparison with other solutions, Power BI stands out as a fantastic choice. Therefore, I would definitely recommend sticking with the Pro license."

"Most of the clients I am interacting with are looking towards Power BI because of the cost and simplicities. It provides an entire feature set and a complete solution. It has tight integration with Office 365, Dynamics 365, Microsoft Technology Stack, and datatypes like R and Python."

"It's a great tool for visualization data, and it's free for engineers."

"It is more user-friendly compared to SSRS."

"The initial setup is relatively simple."

"It is very good, and it supports the Microsoft ecosystem, including Excel, etc."

"It provides good visibility."

Cons

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

"The initial setup is a little bit technical."

"The setup took a lot of tinkering with InfoSec to allow us to do stuff."

"It is too slow. I hope in future it will be a comparable big data tool, such as, for example, Data Lake."

"An area for improvement is data refresh functionality"

"We need more integration capabilities."

"The solution's documentation needs improvement."

"The on-premises version lacks some technical features that are available with the Cloud version."

"Microsoft BI could improve by allowing large-size data sources. We have large data sources, and we have problems loading them in Microsoft BI."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"Its pricing is reasonable for the desktop stuff, but for enterprise-level, it is a little expensive."

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

"Power BI comes with enterprise Microsoft licensing. So for the user, you don't have to pay, but you do have to pay a one-time cost."

"Its licensing cost is very high. It is $20 per user, which is very high, but it is a good product, so you pay for it."

"The price of the license can be better."

"Remove the cost of a licence to show a dashboard within SharePoint. Why should readers of a dashboard have to pay to view? "

"We have enterprise licenses and some of the other tools or features come as a package and others you have to purchase separately."

"The Report Server is pretty expensive on-premise. But as long companies are happy to use the cloud version, that's very cost effective."
