"We have found that the reporting and publishing are great."

"The product is easy to use and simple to navigate."
"It's a very easy-to-use solution."
"I like Microsoft BI's drill-down feature and its overall ease of use."
"The product can go easily go and extract data and it can put it into any format."
"This solution's most useful feature is that it is entirely a single-page application."
"The performance is good."
"The cost is what is most valuable. Compared to the other products on the market, the cost is more palatable."
"The assessment is most valuable."
"I liked the dashboard on it. I could customize my dashboard with different widgets and different heat maps."
"The discovery and prioritization of vulnerabilities."
"It is a stable solution."
"When it comes to the process, installation is very easy and does not take long."
"We did have some issues building the Microsoft blog."
"Microsoft BI lacks some of the scheme features. It would be beneficial if there were a way to show how we move values in a different way."
"From an improvement perspective, I think if the Power BI developers of that platform would really focus on being more detailed and specific on the error messages, it would help a lot of developers troubleshoot and maintain the report ECT or the dashboard ECT."
"Right now, their premium pricing is keeping us out of the premium market. The premium price per user just doesn't make sense for us, but we haven't reached the limit of 500 users to justify the premium."
"I'm not overly technical, and so I can't really speak to any shortcomings from a technical standpoint."
"Power BI could have better metadata management. It's easy to use for a single person. However, it lacks an enterprise-grade metadata management system, which can be a problem if you're doing an enterprise deployment with multiple users."
"Not having to login again after a mobile app upgrade. A simple login on mobile would be great."
"The UI is the main improvement that could be made. Specifically, there is something called DAX, in Power BI, which is complicated compared to calculated fields used in Tableau."
"The solution could improve by being more secure."
"The drawback is that it is still not a fully SaaS solution, so you must deploy a console."
"This solution integrates with another module in Metasploit, that doesn't exist in the other solutions. It is subscribed to on our roadmap, but we chose to implement both Nexppose and AppSpider."
"Reporting could be expanded."
"We have some issues with how it scans patches."
"Patch management is the only missing feature I can think of. Rapid7 detects vulnerabilities, but it should also help you manage patches."
"All products have room for increased security and Rapid7 InsightVM is no exception."
"I would say that it improved our visibility, but it left things open."
