Power BI is a cloud-based business analytics service that enables anyone to visualize and analyze data with greater speed, efficiency, and understanding. It connects users to a broad range of live data through easy-to-use dashboards, provides interactive reports, and delivers compelling visualizations that bring data to life. Power BI Desktop is a powerful new visual data exploration and interactive reporting tool. It provides a free-form canvas for drag-and-drop exploration of your data and an extensive library of interactive visualizations, while streamlining report creation and publishing to the Power BI service.

Native Windows 10 experience

The Power BI universal app is designed from the ground up to run on Windows 10 using the capabilities you already know and love, such as pressing and holding on your dashboard index to open the context menu, or gaining quick access to a dashboard simply by pinning it to your device home screen as a tile.

Continuum mode adapts to your display

The new Windows 10 continuum mode for phones brings a whole new experience to the Power BI app. When you connect your phone to a display dock, Power BI will adjust the presentation to best fit your screen size and resolution. This means you can take your data with you on the goand seamlessly share it during a meeting without the need for a larger computer.
