Hi,
You can make it more pleasing and interactive by applying conditional formatting, Data bar color etc. Please check in latest version if icon can also be appended.

Conditional Formatting? Use a different visualization?

@Anonymous  Which other visualization would you recomend.

 

Thanks,

My opinion is that only you know what you will work best for your audience when it comes to design. However, there are some good books on the topic, I recently picked up The Visual Display of Quantitative Information by Edward Tufte. It's not specific to Power BI but is a great foundation for understanding the visualization of data. 

 

There are also some "fancy" matricies available on the Marketplace that might suit your needs.
