Hi @vanessafvg
As far as I known,
PROs:
Power BI is chock full of tools, and widgets that make the data come alive. Visualization helps turn data science into business decisions. Just like Excel, Power BI has many types of graphs and charts. In addition, data can be transformed into information using geographic maps or by displaying data in gauges. There is a KPI visualization and one called “R script visualization” (presumably for data science applications). One report can have multiple visualizations. Reports have title boxes and cards to enhance the experience. Slicers can affect all reports in a dashboard or only one report. One can click on data to drill down to a more detailed report. All of this makes Power BI a powerful data analytics tool.
CON:
Although the native visuals and to a large part the custom visuals are not configurable. There is often a desire to optimize a visual but there are limitations in what can actually be changed.
Best regards
