Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Tableau, Oracle and others in BI (Business Intelligence) Tools."The visuals are great and make everything look very professional. We can change the look and feel or manipulate the data according to our requirements. It's extremely flexible."
"Its visualizations and dashboards are most valuable. Power BI is great in terms of visualizations and dashboards. The reports that we previously had were not very nice in terms of visualization. It also provides the ability to play with the data."
"I like having the ability to connect Excel files as data inputs."
"It's similar to Excel, but it's much more powerful than Excel."
"Ability to extract data from a variety of sources and systems."
"We have found the product to be scalable."
"The most valuable feature would be the abundance of connectors. It is also easy to use."
"The solution integrates with other Microsoft solutions very well."
"Rapid7 InsightVM has given us a practical view of the vulnerabilities present in our organization."
"We can create our own templates."
"The solution is automatically scheduled so it runs by itself."
"The product's initial setup phase was very easy."
"The feature that I have found most valuable is its dashboards."
"It's easy to use. It's fast, it's a powerful easy to access tool."
"The reports in Rapid7 InsightVM are useful when compared to competitors."
"I rate InsightVM eight out of 10 for ease of setup. It takes two or three engineers to deploy. The solution requires some maintenance. It's mainly cleaning up data."
"The one thing that I noticed specifically was the graphical features, and some of the analytical features. They were stronger on the Tableau side."
"It is not yet ready for enterprises. For a big enterprise data model, it is not so stable, and it also doesn't scale so well."
"I would like to see better, undisturbed stability without any interruptions."
"The look and feel should be updated in terms of the types of dashboards and graphs that you can produce. They aren't as visual as some of its competitors."
"The solution could improve the mobile application design. It is difficult to use compared to the desktop version."
"The solution could be more customizable and you do not have too much freedom on the code."
"The solution doesn't integrate well with third-party tools."
"Power BI's administration could use some work, and the user experience needs to improve because it is a client-based tool. If you want to generate a model or report, you need to use client tools, but client tools are limited for end-users who don't have enough hardware. For example, maybe a client lacks enough memory or CPU power for report generators. If you use a model that requires a massive amount of data, your client will face several problems."
"I would like to see more integration."
"This solution creates false-positives which can cause issues with reporting."
"Rapid7 InsightVM, has impressive capabilities, especially when it comes to managing video equipment. However, we've noticed that Rapid7 also offers a cloud solution called CloudSec, and we don't have that. We think it would be better if InsightVM had all the features for both on-premise and cloud management."
"There needs to be much clearer instructions surrounding scanning."
"The reporting is very bad when you compare it with other vulnerability assessment tools."
"We'd like the agent to cover more compliance issues."
"It is still not a fully cloud-based solution. It will be helpful for customers if it is a complete cloud solution. It is a hybrid solution at the moment."
"The solution should include a tighter integration with third-party threat modeling and threat intelligence tools."
