Hello,
I am working with Power BI free version for testing reasons before we buy a PRO licence. I have added a few tables, some formulas and some steps in query editor. My workbook's performance is now getting low (i.e. too match time to open the file, refresh and open query editor). Can anyone tell me why this is happening and if this issue will not exist when we buy a PRO license?
Many thanks.
Hi @Anonymous,
Your report performance is influenced by the data amount loaded into desktop, the number of visuals/measures you created, the complexity of DAX formulas and so on. It is not a license problem. To improve your report performance, please refer to below links:
