Hi,

There are difference between report server and powerbi.com -> have a look at this page for a feature comparison: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/report-server/compare-report-server-service

Best regards,

Wolfgang

If you own SQL Server Enterprise WITH Software Assurance, then you are licensed for Power BI Report Server. No, it does not have all of the capabilities of the Service.
