- 5. All things beingequal, when is power bi premium worth it? Well, at the lowest tier • 500 users who view reports in the portal. $10 per user per month • 1,000 users who view: $5 per user per month
- 6. Examples 1) If anorganization consists of 200 total users – 50 are engaging in self-service BI, while the remaining 150 are limited to viewing BI content – Power BI Pro is the most economical deployment option for all users within the organization. 2) However, if the organization consists of 700 total users – 100 are engaging in self-service BI, while the remaining 600 occasionally view BI content – the most economical deployment option would be to license Power BI Pro for the 100 users engaging in self-service BI and to license Power BI Premium for the 600 seeking occasional access to view BI content.
- 7. Dedicated capacity • ThePower BI Service (portal) is a shared resource • Makes performance inconsistent • Cheaper • Power BI Premium means having your own Power BI server, with dedicated compute (CPU) and memory • Surprises me that people who spend $250,000 in SQL Server licensing complain about Power BI Premium costs
- 8. Early use ofnew features Microsoft has stated that features will be released in Power BI Premium BEFORE Power BI Professional This could be considered a huge competitive advantage
- 9. Power BI ReportServer • Power BI reports and SSRS reports completely within an organization’s firewall • The same number of virtual cores provisioned in the cloud can also be deployed on-premises with Power BI Report Server – without the need to split the capacity • providing the freedom to move to the cloud at your pace.
