Extremely difficult to use if you don't have an in-depth understanding of Microsoft platforms. Not user-friendly whatsoever and customer support is about as useful as a group of elementary students running a museum.
The mobile development should work just like the desktop version. It's a shame to have small squares where you have to fit all the visuals and designs. It's so challenging to develop a great design with this limitation.
When the app wants to work it works good but when it doesn't want to work it really doesn't work at all. The new updates usually cause hiccups for the first week or so and the app constantly signs you out.
Power BI is very good and useful in many industries. It would be very useful though to have the .PBIX file resident for demonstration purposes and where there is no or limited network on the device.
Love the product but wish we had more control for mobile versions of reports. Dynamic sizing of tables/shapes/etc. so you don't have wasted white space would be a fantastic addition.
In default landscape view, half the screen covered by unnecessary menus and no way to remove. Easy to fix, but currently unusable without additional mobile development.
Locks to one, and only one, Azure account! I should be able to sign out of one tenancy and into another: not possible! Sign out of one then say sign in and instead of asking for credentials or account it simply chooses the one previously used. Total failure on this point alone!! No, I won't be bothering to email, it's a comment on lack of product feature that is stupid so there is no error message. Shows that no person reads this, just a bot!
The navigation system while viewing the report is very bad, it could definitely used left and right swipes to navigate to the next page of the report.
The experience is quite good and especially when we see the app features are continually enhanced compare to very basic features of the app when it was just launched.
Good and excellent app! On the usage and visualization, I feel it should be more user friendly like Google Data Studio, and I request Microsoft to take this suggestion.
Loading takes forever and isn't always accurate in real time as it is supposed to be. Overall the amount of information that can be found is helpful as long as it's accurate.
The best reporting platform available, if you take the time to learn how to build good reports it's pays off in big ways!
I like the reporting but when the print is so small I can't read it that makes the reporting irrelevant. Needs to be more user friendly and sortable as well.
Great app. Microsoft keeps pushing updates every week. Best BI application and they have a mobile app that is also great. Keep it up Microsoft. 💪
Loved it. It incompasses everything an analyst would want. The only thing needed is extensive training in order to enjoy the huge potential of this app.
Doesn't upload well. Have to wait and when it does, the screen freezes.
Very Powerful tool for data presentation and visualization. I will continue my career in this.
I can only see a portion of the metrics I need depending on the device I use. It should be consistent no matter if I'm on my phone, tablet and/or laptop
Please Bring Back Auto-Landscape View Up until late November, the app worked smoothly. Two updates back, you guys took away smart rotate, a function that allowed the phone to show landscape view smartly/automatically when on a chart level. That function was great for viewing chats on my phones. Please bring it back. Thanks!
Amazing tool. Fantastic for management performance analysis, great for consolidated financial reviews. Able to load different g/l formats from different sources (odbc, excel, csv...), forms and layouts, to "remember" steps to manipulate and transform the data so next time when data is provided a simple refresh adds all data using steps defined earlier (eg add debit-credit column, add fx rate and divide the balance, map the local g/l account to the Group one etc).
So far so good. Integration is brilliant. Functionality is fantastic but a little overwhelming at first. User interface a bit content heavy at first. I'm still playing and getting use to it.
Pretty frustrated with this app, and I haven't gotten to use it yet. Want to use it? Need an email. Oh, you use Gmail? Nope, can't use your normal email. Okay, I'll sign up for a Microsoft Outlook email then. Nope, you couldn't possibly use a Microsoft personal email, go back and create a Microsoft work email! Obvious, really. How stupid was I to assume otherwise!
Helpful app! I can see interactive reports on my phone at scheduled intervals.
It's slow to load . Buffers alot .doesnt show all information on every report
Use this for productivity for work and I really like the features and how straightforward it is to use.
Easy to have a glance at report without the need to start the computer
Great in theory. Have to continuously reset if you want to manually key a sku if you have scanned previous item. Won't keep selected store # when resetting. Manual entry should switch to numeric keypad. Slow and times out frequently.
Excellent platform where we can see everything.
That's not mobile at all. First of all, there is no infinite scroll for you reports. Meaning that if you have many visuals on the same page, you won't be able to integrate all of them on the mobile view canvas. Buttons does not work very well. Tables are not really responsive (you cannot set an auto-columns width just for the mobile view). On top of that, this mobile view is just avalaible for the mobile app, not for the published-to-web reports or online reports. A shame in 2020.
