Microsoft Fabric Reviews and Ratings
- Manager, Project Management50M-1B USDIT ServicesReview Source
Strong unified data platform with real integration benefits but requires cost discipline and a mindset shift
We brought in Microsoft Fabric mainly to reduce constant context switching across Azure tools. Earlier our ingestion and reporting were siloed and maintaining governance across disconnected pipelines had become a real headache. The move OneLake has been the biggest win. It cut down data duplication and made access more consistent across teams. Power BI integration was quite smoother than expected especially for real time use cases. With Synapse Real Time intelligence we are now catching data changes as they happen instead of waiting for batch updates. This is not a plug and play shift. Teams used to standalone Azure services will face a learning curve adjusting to Fabric's unified approach. Cost forecasting was also tricky at the start. The competition based model, particularly the Capacity Units (CU) took time to understand. Monitoring usage closely from day one is important to avoid surprises.
