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.”
