Cons

“Performance can also become an issue with large datasets; once your model grows beyond a certain size, you start hitting refresh timeouts and slow visual rendering unless you invest time in optimization(aggregations, composite models).”

“Advanced features such as DAX formulas and data modeling have a steep learning curve and can be difficult for beginners to master.”

“Large models can consistently hit refresh timeout limits or memory constraints, which can lead to service interruptions when working on projects or testing current displays”
