What is Power BI?
Power BI is a business analytics solution that empowers you to connect to hundreds of data sources and bring your data to life with dashboards and reports. Power BI is one of our key data visualisation tools available to organisations.
It allows you to easily connect to, model, and visualise your data, creating memorable reports personalised with your KPIs. Get fast, AI-powered answers to your business questions—even when asking with conversational language.
