Power BI has self-serve analytics that the end-users can do themselves. On most projects, people are primarily using data visualization and self-serve analytics."
"We have a lot of servers and applications from which we want reports, and it allows us to create reports from an SQL source or some other source."

"The setup took a lot of tinkering with InfoSec to allow us to do stuff."
"The upgrade process could be improved."
"Sometimes while developing, the front end is not easily customizable and it has limitations. We cannot go and do any UI we want. We have to stick to the limitations of the product."
"The graphic interface could be better."
"Their level of technical support is adequate. It could be better."
"If I want to implement an upgrade, I'd like to see how it will be different. Ideally, Data Lab should help me test production items and also do future things. Future releases should be downloadable and testable in Data Lab."
"The initial setup was complex as we had to rewrite a lot of the code."
