The right Offline Tool
Hi ChristopheJ,
Yes, I think Power BI Desktop is an "industrial" solution. But every organization has its own special request. To explain more clear, we can compare the PBI Desktop with the Office Excel. The Power BI Desktop, only the Power BI Desktop App, is quite similar to Excel while the Desktop focuses on the data analysis. The one who has the pbix file has the full Edit permission. Then you have to keep the file safe and restrict the accesses in the data source.

Could we say it is an "industrial" solution. Because we could need to deploy this solution for many field people.
So we have to organize the .pibx distribution, the update of this pibx... and also to anticipate the performance if many people refresh in same time the .pibx.
I suppose it is not possible to manage security if we want to push only the datas regardings the area of one person without creating several .pibx with the the right filters.
Best regards.
