Microsoft Power BI app good for
app well done it helps me getting my BI dashboard from Windows into Iphone
The app brings a ton of features to the iPhone. I love being able to view dashboards and reports and have the ability to use slicers. The only minor issue I see at this point is that I cant make reports or dashboards "full screen" while in use on my 6s Plus. I have a large screen that would be perfect for this so hopefully it can be given as an option in the future to drop the name border at the top and the tabs border from the bottom. Keep up the good work!
Some bad moments
App starts fine. When trying to connect to SSRS server the app force quits. Each time after it force quits. Only removing and reinstalling allows you to run the app and try again, only to fail.
I want to love this app. Easy to set up and get started with PowerBI. But the auto refresh on salesforce data isnt reliable. And when it works, the data doesnt reliably transfer to the watch. If these syncs can be made bullet proof we have ourselves a game changing system. Till then its just promise but not much else. Ill change this review when if they nail it. Please fix the auto refresh!!!
This application is a true improvement over Microsoft BI stack, as a customer, getting a direct access to enterprise KPI with drill capabilities, visual analysis and dashboarding capabilities is a killer feature !
Its simple to get ready with your login Office 365 Tenant login information, and after that its very simple to use.
Note : At this time, the surfaces power BI App is slightly different from the iPad App, well look forward the Microsoft team to continue this work
Only enables access to dashboards which are definitely not ready for prime time. yet directly online I can access both reports and dashboards from the same power bi interface. Ive tried creating dashboards and for some reason the interface is different from power view and worse. I cant even get some simple things done like putting a number on a categorical axis and expecting it to display properly. My bar chart by year was displayed in a random 2012 2011 2014 order. I can fix that in power view, power pivot, or excel, but not in this awful dashboard software. quickest fix would be to enable access to reports or forgo the app rather than waiting for the next release to either convert reports to dashboards or actually having the dashboard software be ready for professional use. I gave 2 stars because I could at least log-in to see that I couldnt access my reports here.
Now this is what I call a beautiful and businesses productivity app. Great job Microsoft, you truly are becoming an open company that is embracing all platforms that users are on - kudos on a beautiful business app.
This is probably the best BI dashboard app out there. Got it setup for our customers in no time. Initial feedback from them? "Gimme more!" Just goes to show how easy it was for them to use. Keep up the great work
