Moving from Tableau to Power BI

I'm fairly accomplished in data visualisation and I've used Tableau as my software of choice. 

I'm starting a new job shortly where I'll be using Power BI instead. Where's the best place to start with tutorials, tips, etc.? Thanks

@MattAllington's book is very approachable, and his website is great as well.  Also Rob collies books + website (www.powerpivotpro.com) are great resources.

 

If you want "next level" deep knowledge of dax, you go w/ anything by @marcorusso and his partner alberto ferrari who... aren't as approachable but if you want to *REALLY* know what's up... that is where you go.  www.sqlbi.com

@Ranger-UK,

 

We use Power BI desktop to design your report.
https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/powerbi-desktop-getting-started/

 

We publish report to Power BI services and pin the visuals to dashboard. Then we can share the dashboard to others.
