"Provides good data flow related to the container and control flow."
"PowerBI – Self-service BI."

"The most valuable features are the easy creation of reports, dashboards, and the ability to perform analysis. It is important for us to create reports because we have some operations during certain hours and we can use this tool to track the information."
