Microsoft Power BI is a suite of powerful tools, services and apps that help turn databases and spreadsheets into engaging visualizations and interactive reports. The platform makes it easy to connect to data, analyze it, share insights and automate reporting workflows.
For beginners, Power BI Desktop is the main entry point - a free application for building dashboards with drag-and-drop and DAX formulas. When collaboration and distribution are required, cloud services such as Power BI Pro and Power BI Service let teams share up-to-date insights.
Power BI delivers an interactive experience with AI-assisted analytics, advanced data transformation tools and a rich set of visuals. You can run Python scripts inside Power BI Desktop or use external JavaScript libraries for custom visuals. Git integration with developer tools like Visual Studio Code helps version-control .pbix files.
