Pros

“It makes advanced statistical methods more accessible while providing excellent tools for analyzing trends, identifying problems, and making data-driven decisions. Although it can take some time to learn and may be expensive for smaller organizations, it is a valuable tool for anyone who regularly works with statistical data.”

“Statistics play a vital role in gathering data, analyzing it, formulating steps and procedures, implementing it, and monitoring them, even improving them, in any sector and industry.”
RG

Roel G.

Senior Service Missionary

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).”
CA

Charumathi A.

Data Engineer

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

Sarah J.

Support Specialist

“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”
NB

Nicholas B.

Actuary

Cons

“Additionally, preparing and importing datasets from non-standard formats can sometimes be a tedious process that requires significant preliminary data cleaning before the analysis can begin.”
