Hi @powerbiexpert22 ,

For 20 users, you can purchase Power BI Pro licenses individually for each user, or you can opt for a Power BI Premium license that allows you to share content with a larger audience.

Power BI Pro is licensed on a per-user basis, which means each user needs to have a Power BI Pro license assigned to them to access the Pro features.

On the other hand, Power BI Premium is licensed on a capacity basis, which means you can share content with a larger audience without requiring each user to have a Pro license. Power BI Premium also provides additional features such as larger data capacity, more frequent data refreshes, and more.

The individual can purchase a Power BI license. Microsoft provides a self-service sign-up and self-service purchase option for individuals to get a license for the Power BI service for themselves.
