1. if one has M365 which includes PowerBI pro, then integration with other M365 applicaiton like, excel in one drive, sharepoint etc becomes very easy.

2. Easy to install

What problems is Microsoft Power BI solving and how is that benefiting you?

1. The management gets to see the live performance of the metrics which makes the decision making easier, if we have comnnection to Azure, Datalake etc, then the refresh frequency can be increased in a day.

2. Easy to visulise the data, although DAX is slighlty complex, but if one masters it or able to take help of community forums one can accomplish in making dynamic charts which. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
