Ratings and reviews

Works well for reviewing data that is allowed to sink at least 24 hours. Inside of that, not so much. Also, the navigation feels awkward in relation to other sites. Making it hard to find what you're looking for at times. Also, due to the amount of detail that is offered and many expanded folders, getting sidetracked is easy to do. With that said, it's very nice to have all the information you need to make good decisions in one app.

I think Power BI is one of the best and easiest analytics programs on the market. I'm a manager of Data Analytics for work so I think that says something. This app is their weakest link, however. Here are my reasons: 1) The touch interface never works right. I can never touch the right thing in the right way to get the data to filter how I want. 2) I can't set defaults, i.e. default start screen 3) I can't refresh the source data or manage data in any way.

UPDATE: 5 stars! Microsoft fixed all the issues! This is so slick now! Old review: Report Navigation is clunky. If using a relative date filter for dates in the last "x" number of days, weeks, months, etc. The "Apply Filter" action button is partially blocked, not fully visible on screen. Scrolling down is disabled so the filters from the filter pane of this nature can't be changed while viewing the report in mobile.
