Power BI is constantly evolving. But that evolution is poorly communicated. I usually find out about changes when I try to update or refresh data in a report and something breaks. I manage a SOX control that uses Power BI. It has to work, PERIOD! To open the desktop app or to open the report and find out some change has nerfed my report is terrible.
Oh well! We have to stay up to date with the latest security requirements. We have to enhance this, that and the other thing. GREAT! Make sure the changes are communicated and the transition managed so my reports don't break. Give me the path to moving to whatever the new requirement is insteand of simply breaking my current solution.
C'MON...users shouldn't find out about changes when they can no longer use their current version. We should be better than that.
