For any business, the volume of data associated with every process increases over time to the point where it becomes difficult to discover the information that will ultimately allow for growth. In order to get meaningful insights from this data, it is vital to display what really matters by collating relevant information and linking it to see trends. This is where the platform of Microsoft Power BI is able to provide structured visuals in the form of dashboards and reports that allow you to see what you need to and use business analytics to make a difference.

Microsoft Power BI dashboards are available on the Mobile App, Online, Desktop version, and as part of the Microsoft Fabric package, so that you can see in premise or cloud data in real-time, wherever you are. These reports are interactive and customisable, allowing for filtering at the click of a button using sliders and insights can be shared with other users for collaboration. Natural language queries are enabled on the dashboards, enabling the user to get richer insights through dashboard commentary.

Although Power BI functions as a standalone product, it has hundreds of connectors and can work in Conjunction with numerous products, such as Dynamics 365, Microsoft Teams, SharePoint to give your business insights and opportunities to both new and existing customers.

Power BI and Copilot

Copilot in Power BI allows you to create report pages using simple commands such as ‘Show me sales for this quarter’ in both Power BI Service and Power BI desktop.

Copilot will analyse your semantic model and make suggestions for reports. For example; ‘Create a page to compare this quarter’s sales to last quarter’s sales’. Copilot will deliver several suggestions for the user to select and begin creating report pages.

Users can also create commentary on their reports by using Copilot’s ‘Create a narrative summary visual’ feature, which provides a narrative of individual visuals, or entire reports.

There are several graphs and maps showing data about customer spending by country, date, age group, and gender, along with text sections providing insights and key findings.
