    Your short wrap-up is okay. 

     

    First, Power BI Cloud = Power BI Servive (that is the official name of the cloud service)

     

    Second, you will need to decide what kind of license model you want to go for. Pro-Users only, Premium per User or a Premium Capacity for the whole organization.

     

    Spoken simply, yes, you do not need to care for "technical" installation besides the local gateway for on-premise refreshes and some administrative work (e.g. creating workspaces, access rights, e.g.).
