license
Hi,Ray_Minds and lbendlin ,thanks for your concern about this issue.
Your answer is excellent!
Hello,bipower27 .I am glad to help you.
If you only need to use PowerBI Desktop to produce reports and you only need to use “My workspace” for the Power BI Service, then you don't need a Pro license (if you don't need to collaborate on reports with other members of your organization).
Power BI Desktop is free to use.
Users of the free Power BI license can access their own My Workspace. In My Workspace, you can connect to data, create reports .
I hope my suggestions give you good ideas, if you have any more questions, please clarify in a follow-up reply.
Best Regards,
Carson Jian
Solution SupplierHi bipower27
Yes, you can use Power BI Desktop for free on your office computer, even for commercial purposes.
- Power BI Desktop itself is a free tool provided by Microsoft.
- You can create, edit, and save reports without any cost.
- You only need a Pro or Premium license if you want to share reports on the Power BI Service (cloud) or collaborate with others.
How to get Power BI Desktop for free:
- Download it from the Microsoft Store or the official Power BI website.
- Install and use it without requiring a license.
