Top Rated Microsoft Power BI Embedded Alternatives
What gets me with Power BI Embedded? Its simplicity. I mean, a few lines of code and bam, I've embedded Power BI content. And let's not even start on the security - makes me sleep easy knowing my data's locked down. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The documentaion is occasionally ineffective. I would also want more flexibility in how I can customize the dashboards and reports. It would be beneficial to have more options for making them apperar the way I want. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I consider that Power BI has a friendly interface and is very easy to use. The drag and drop function makes it easy for me to create interactive reports. This shows visual appeal without having to have technical skills in this program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
For people who are just starting to use this tool for business reporting or who have little experience in data analysis, there may be a very slow learning curve associated with mastering Power BI. At first I found it a little difficult to handle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Microsoft Power BI Embedded is an easy-to-use tool that allows users to integrate Power BI reports and dashboards into web pages, virtual workspaces, and applications and has seamless integration with Dynamics 365 Business Central, SharePoint, power apps, and third-party applications.
Power BI embedded allows business reports customization directly within a virtual workspace or workgroup project’s web page. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is nothing that I dislike, but managing user permissions can be complex and then unintentionally denies access to embedded reports for authorized team members. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Power BI has started being implemented at our company recently, meaning that we are still in the discovering phase. So far what we have uncovered is beyond fantastic! We have built several automated processes capturing input data onto Sharepoint and Power BI was just there to pull the data from it. Power BI was also there to let us implement a live connection to our database. Given the experience we acquired with Power Query from Excel, transitioning to Power BI represented no problem at all for us, it also lets us utilize SQL statements creating a swell link onto that database without crowding the query with unnecessary applied steps (it helps with the data load speed to increase exponentially). The Streaming datasets we were able to creating using Power Automate, bring power to our reports and dashboards for ease of access to users getting the most updated data without breaking a sweat. The integration of embedding Power BI was easy and the display is phenomenal. Even when there are times that for some reason datasets don't refresh correctly (this occurs mostly with scheduled refreshes), we immediately receive email notification with details on what we should be looking at to find a fix. The other portion of Power BI that probably doesn't get as much credit, is the online version of Power BI reports; its option to analyze reports in Excel allows us to send quick ad-hoc reports upon request.

There are very few things I think Power BI could improve but that perspective I have it only based on what I needed in the moment. Power BI can't be connected to provide information out to Sharepoint. Having that option would've help skipping the workaround we utilize by building a dataset in Power BI then publishing that report and use a gateway where we could've connected the data directly. The Dataset ended up being a table that could've easily provide that information to be read utilizing Power Automate. Which is what we end up doing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Microsoft Powe BI Embedded helps me in creating powerful dashboards which ultimately helps business to take action with the insights available in the dashboard.
It has multiple chart feature like Bar char, line chart, pie chart etc which helps us in building powerful dashboards as per the data points and requirements. Last but not the least, it's very easy to use and and anyone can learn it within no time. It has very strong customer support team as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes I feel it gets stuck when I load very large datasets in it to build line chart or pie chart, otherwise, it works very smooth with nominal dataset. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
My favourite feature is the crisp integration with the exisiting Microsoft tools I use for my projects and reports - I can embed rich, interactive data visualizations directly into applications, without the need for extensive coding. It saves me time and effort for my data analytics, and it always produces a high quality output. The visuals are impressive and helps make my reports powerful and persuasive.

when I first started using this tool, I was self-taught. I felt a bit overwhelmed because it felt complicated. I relied on YouTube tutorials to find my way, and with time and practice, I was able to master it and maximise it to its full potential, as it relates to my various project scopes.

That is is something that allows our directors to easily monitor progress. As well it is accessible to the team that are under them as well. It is able to break down the overall numbers into categories to better understand areas of opportunity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It takes a bit to load. Then another big issue is you can review results in real time. You have to wait until the next day to see metrics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
This is a service built into the tools that I would like to analyze. For example, analysis of time spent on communication, i.e. meetings (scheduled or unplanned), 1/1 chats or group discussions. All of this perfectly illustrates the time I spend on communication and gives me the opportunity to take steps based on this analysis and assess my performance and the value of the time spent on communication.

I am a new PowerBi user and now I see only the advantages of this solution. it is easy to use, perfectly integrated with Microsoft tools that I use every day, and the reports and statistics look really good visually and contain a lot of valuable information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Power BI embedded is scalable, fast, accurate, flexible and it keeps advancing with new features and capabilities. Anyone can easily see those things happening. In fact, the embedding feature is something that we keep using everyday in our company. 9/10 days we use Power BI via web apps or environment, or via any arrangement that is hosted elsewhere, in order to provide the benefits of Power BI to colleagues that cannot be present or it is difficult for them to work within the original Power BI premises. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
One downside that I can think of, that in fact is sort of a downside, is a case that stands for all types of Power BI implementations. Power BI is a great tool, that needs continues support. It can be design-intensive, DBA-intensive, Data Quality - intensive etc, you need People that know about it, to work for you, internal Team to say more accurately. One can always use consultants, but One would end up needing them on a 6.5/7 weekdays to work with him/her. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's fantastic to be able to view embedded reports in real time. It's easy for end users to access, even offline. It's also easy to implement and scale, and our developers though that the integration was very smooth. Our executive users find it easy to interact with the reports and visualizations.

Relies on Azure, which was not an issue for our organization, but could be a drawback for others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Microsoft Power BI is a platform that is used for forecasting revenues or revenue trend analysis. It is a powerful tool for big companies to run their businesses and forecast their profits. Based on mathematical software it analyzes how much profit one company can earn. This calculation is based on three factors: budget, labor cost, and revenues. The actual multiplier shows how good or bad it is the budget utilization. The multiplier forecast predicts the trend of gross profit margin and allows the company to change the work order and labor cost. It graphically presented all analyses in PowerPoint and the visualization of each trend. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The complexity of the program. It is not user-friendly. It requires previous training and advanced mathematical knowledge to fully understand each component trend such as baseline multiplier, actual multiplier, and multiplier forecast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
PowerBI will give you insight in yoour systems, customers, etc., that you were never aware of before. The data-driven power behind their insights gives users the freedom and functionlity to find success-avenues that weren't previously tapped into. It's success as an internal-driver leads to high frequency of use and it only takes a few sessions to quickly get an uderstanding of how best to make use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The dashboard could be cleaned up and a little more presentable. While it isn't necessarily difficult to navigate, it does seem like more hoops to jump through than needed and is a clunky operating system in a way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Embedding reports to other apps has never been this simple before. It used to be a time taking complex task. This app makes data analysis alot more easier instead of the old excel way. Reports or Dashboards generated are very interactive. Using this tool with other applications like ppt or excel is also simple Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Fetching raw data from a dashboard could have been a bit more easier. The options are a tad bit difficult to navigate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Microsoft power BI is one of the best application for data visualization, analysis and it is very easy to use. Data can be visualize on drag and drop figures for charts and upon single click real time chart will show you the data visualization. It can manage the large data base and can be used for dashboard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
With the perception of data visualization i am looking for more templates, charts and graph for better visualization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like that in all cases where I'v been able to use Power BI Embedded that the charts are reliable. They have been our 'source of truth' in terms of where we would combine things like usage and contract data all in one place. The software is easy to use and offers simple graphs. What I mean by that is the data can be complicated that it combines but it's really just a great way to get what you need quickly without having to mess with any colors, visuals, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes the filters and the reset buttons when you click on the items in any one graph or chart aren't super clear. The data does change and is reflective of what you click on but it isn't always obvious to us in term of what they are using, not using in the data set to come up with the number. the click through feature also feels backways for dates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It has great user friendly function and the data insights are great to provide. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Most of the functions are not user friendly you need to take a full course to know the content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Power BI is by far the most comprehensive data visualization tool I've ever used. It's got literally all types of charts and advanced charting features you'll ever need. And it's relatively easy to set up and embed with other MS tools as data sources Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The charts are a bit too prone to break when small changes are made in the source doc. I'd have liked it to have systems for automatically fixing or offering fixes for some of th emore common issues that causes charts to break Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The best thing I like about Microsoft Power BI is the way its present the data and so easy to use.
We apply power Bi in our organisation for various analysis and so easy to implement. We use Power BI in our day to day (daily or weekly) routine for data and presentation.
Its provide so many feature and customer support is also to good. We integrated Accounting system with the Power BI, so it can directly pull the data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Lack of knowledge in people about the feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
As a Software Developer, I was able to successfully integrated charts created in Power BI into applications. This helped my clients to view the data in graphical format for making big management decisions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Clients have expressed worries about Power BI Embedded being slow when many people use it together. Also, it's a bit expensive. Since the client is a small business, they decided to go with more affordable third-party controls using Jquery. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Power BI needs data to reflect the dashboard sometime we have to take care for the connection reference and sometimes it failed so we have to take care about that Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The easiness of learning from scratch how to make a nice and colorful report with almost any kind of data and transform it as needed. It can add advanced data cleaning features with M language, with its proper documentation and forum. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The need to manually refresh the report when opening the file, missing basic functionalities that need to be voted to be added and the lack of integration with custom components to trigger changes. In order to get the most, even for basic documentation, you need a paid account. Sometimes the multiple steps for cleaning data takes too long or crashes the app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
One can easily starting working on this application with a very basic knowledge and can create appleaing and informative reports.

The visualizations in Power BI are impressive and can be customized to fit the specific needs of each user. The software includes a wide range of visualizations, from bar and line charts to maps and gauges. Users can also add interactive features to their reports, such as drop-down menus and drill-through capabilities.
Another great aspect of Power BI is its collaboration features. Users can easily share reports and dashboards with team members and stakeholders and even embed reports into other applications such as SharePoint and Teams. This makes it easy for teams to collaborate and make data-driven decisions in real time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The learning curve for Power BI Embedded can be steep for those who are not familiar with Power BI or web development. Users may need to spend some time learning how to integrate and configure Power BI within their own applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
