Hi mgmeyer,

 

I have to agree with Anonymous on this one, is there no way we can get the updated visuals before Q4?

 

We have enterprise sql server licences which allow us to run the on prem version of powerbi reportserver, the business has used and loved powerbi (web), want to make it our sole reporting solution, planned development for intergration into our existsing .net apps etc

 

So far we have found it great, easy to impliment and user friendly but the old visuals without things like drill to detail etc are a step backwards especially when the users make such use of things like the drill to detail, I understand there may be technical challanges, limitations or a release schedule but please could you feedback and advocate for a release of the new visuals as soon as possible to avoid businesses choosing competitors products?

 

As with many companies we are under time constraints to get the work done, as a user of PowerBi and a huge fan I will argue we should wait for the update but if its possible the PowerBi team can push the improved visuals (espacially the drill to detail matrix tables) then it would be greatly appriciated and I suspect could save PowerBi some loss of business.

 

Many thanks for your time,

Mark
