Solved: Re: Premium vs. Pro

TuckRhodes · ‎07-25-2023

At some point, my organization was told that we cannot obtain any Power BI Pro licenses without at least one Premium License user. Is this accurate? I can't find anything that directly supports or refutes this.

Hi @TuckRhodes

Completely false. Pro licenses are for shared capacity and Premium are for dedicated capacity and best used for big organizations with 500+ users.

Update: We cancelled our Premium License and all is well. Distriuting Pro licenses is working just fine! Thanks for all the input!

I'm curious... My organization has all Pro licenses. I am currently the only developer and have many published reports. I want to upgrade to a Premium license because I would like to use the AI Insights and Text Analysis functionality.

If I upgrade, will there be issues with the work that I have done so far as all the users in my organization are Pro users?
