differences between powerbi.com and report server?

Hi please excuse the double posting in both these forums, but i am just trying to get an idea of the main differences between using only the on prem solution vs  the cloud in terms of functionality. ...

Hi

Is there a latest version of this comparision chart anywhere? Or are these differences still hold good.

 

I am looking to see if there are any improvements/functionalities added now or on any approximate timeline on when we can expect self service BI and Natural language query added to On Premise server.

 

Thanks

Sushma

HI sn123,

 

I think what you are really wanting is a published roadmap for PBI RS, with details of which features we can expect to receive and when. If I'm right then you are not alone!! :manhappy:

 

Myself and others have been posting for many months to ask the Microsoft RS team to give us a more professioinal approach to the release of future RS versions. At the moment all we know is that they are doing their best and hope to get something out soon. Communication could be better. 

 

It had been stated by MS that there would be an RS releases every 3 to 4 months, but we are now 5 months since the last release, and still no date announched or expected content detailed. This extended delay means there are loads of Cloud service features to catch-up on making the job of the RS team harder in playing catch-up, at this rate the RS version is going to fall further and further behind. We love PBI RS, but this is now becoming a worry. :mansad:

 

Can anybody at MS comment please v-qiuyu-msft
