Reviewer Insights for: Microsoft Fabric

Microsoft Fabric Likes & Dislikes

It allows us to have access Fabric data storage and analytics directly in Azure. Regarding our Azure SQL databases, it processes large volumes and more complex datasets like unstructured data from our high amount of sensors.

Unified platform for multiple data workloads strong integration with Microsoft ecosystem and an intuitive user friendly interface

We really like that this is billed monthly in Azure consumption rather than annually in an enterprise agreement commit. It also helps us fully utilise the benefits of PowerBI within the business.

The integration is straight forward, but the several settings and customization to fit our needs can be a little bit complex and requires a lot of time investigating and reading Microsoft documentation and forums to troubleshoot some issues.

Some administrative and maintenance tasks can be complex and not as intuitive initial setup and configuration may require a learning curve, documentation and troubleshooting guidance could be improved in certain areas

I don't think it's reached maturity and it requires a significant internal upskilling to be able to use it in the optimal way.

It's a unified platform combining data integrations, engineering, science and BI with deep Power BI Integration. It's perfect for breaking silos between teas, using OneLake for centralized data, and leveraging AI-powered tools like Copilot for insights. Start by exploring its use for your lakehouse needs and upskilling yout team on its features. For BI framework (Operational), focus on Agile practices for delivery, strong data governance, clear KPI's for team success and risk management strategies. Regular training and centralized documentation keep the team aligned and resilient. Both topics are collaboration and ensuring a setup for scalable and efficient growth.

Microsoft Fabric: Powerful All in one Data Platform, But pricey and Still Immature

Apr 8, 2026

It's powerful for end-to-end data work with nice AI integrations, but feels immature with occasional bugs and steep costs.
