Exploring Dynamic Filters & Parameters: Power BI vs. Tableau

Dear Power BI Community,

 

As a Tableau developer venturing into the realm of Power BI, I'm intrigued by the differences in dynamic filters and parameters between the two platforms. While Tableau relies on calculated fields & filters, Power BI leverages DAX expressions for these functionalities. I'm eager to understand how Power BI's use of DAX expressions for dynamic filters and parameters enhances its capabilities compared to Tableau.

 

Could you share examples illustrating the advantages of DAX expressions in Power BI for dynamic filtering and parameterization? Your insights into the flexibility and sophistication enabled by DAX expressions would greatly aid in my transition to Power BI.

 

Thank you for sharing your expertise and experiences.

 

Best regards,
Manoj Prabhakar
