Microsoft Power BI vs NetSuite Business Intelligence comparison

"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."

"We found the initial setup to be straightforward."

"The solution is quite scalable."

"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."

"The user interface is easy to work with."

"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."

"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."

"The solution is easy to set up and implement."

"You can export almost anything whether it's graphics or data."

"Technical support could be a bit better."

"It is not leading the charge on scalability, but it meets expectations."

"Its performance and stability can be improved. It takes time to load, and sometimes, it also breaks down for the whole region. Its usability could also be better, and it could also have more connections with different data sources."

"I would like to see more visualization options."

"It should be more user-friendly. There are very small or tiny icons that you need to move very carefully. If you go a little bit up and down, some of the values change. Its user interface should be improved. It should be like Tableau. Its performance is also slow and should be improved. I definitely feel some sort of speed issues with Power BI. The integration of Excel with Power BI would also be good."

"We have used other solutions and the reporting functionality should be user-friendly and have a drag and drop feature should be available, but Microsoft BI doesn't have these features. When you are creating reports and you can't change as a user. Every time you need one developer or one technical person to make the changes."

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

"Performance can be an issue when there's too much data, and getting data into Microsoft Power BI via APIs can be slow."

"Graphics are limited and could be improved."

"Their price is good."

"Pricing is a big advantage that Power BI has over Tableau. Power BI is three or four times cheaper than Tableau. For my personal use, I will definitely prefer a $20 monthly fee of Power BI rather than a $70 monthly fee of Tableau. If you pay altogether for Power BI, they give you a discount, whereas, with Tableau, there is no discount. There are three versions of Power BI: Free, Pro, and Premium. The Premium version comes with a lot of things. There is no extra or hidden fee. You pay every month, and the software is with you. If you upgrade, there will be some extra charges."

"I would rate them 4 out of 5 for their current pricing. There are no additional costs to the standard licensing fees."

"We view it as an expensive product."

"Its pricing is great."

"The pricing is reasonable."

"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 licensing can be complicated."
