    chandramouli From my point of view it would be for the following reasons:

    1. Self - Service BI tool meaning easy to start with for any novice user be it BA, PM or any Data Analyst

    2. Support to wide range of connectors (50+) and visualisation (custom as well in build)

    3. Power BI Q&A feature which is a uniuqe functionality

    4. Groups & collaboration with O365, Content Packs, Gateways, RLS using Tabular/ MD models, etc.

     

    Apart, its cheaper and development tool is free available for download as compared to few other tools in market.

     

    Many of the points I must have missed, but these are few which I think makes Power BI really unique ! Hope this helps !

    In Desktop, choose File | Publish. This will publish your report to the Service. Go into the Service and open the report in the Reports section. Choose File | Publish to Web. Send your exec's the link to the report.
