What I like most about PBI is how effectively it supports demand planning by turning large, multi-channel datasets into clear, interactive dashboards. It allows me to quickly analyze forecast accuracy, attainment, customer trends, and SKU performance without spending hours manipulating data. Automated refreshes ensure we are always looking at the latest orders and shipment signals and features like drill downs and DAX calculations make it easy to identify variances, root causes, and opportunities. PBI has significantly improved visibility, alignment and decision making across our demand planning and commercial teams
Microsoft Power BI can run on premises and cloud as well, provides 360 degree view and highly scalable.
The interactive user interface that instantly and intuitively helps understanding the data
What I dislike about PBI is that more advanced capabilities, such as complex data modeling, DAX calculations, and customizing relationships -require a steeper learning curve. For Demand Planning, where we often work with large datasets across multiple sources, performance can slow down unless the data model is optimized carefully. Additionally, setting up automated refreshes and troubleshooting failures sometimes require IT support, which can delay timely updates. While the tool is powerful, achieving the level of automation and scalability needed for high volume forecasting does take time and technical effort.
Microsoft power BI could improve it's customization, ricing and contract negotiation policies.
