Power BI is a way to bring in data from many different data sources, then analyze, mash up, and crunch that data and share it using easily consumable dashboards and reports that you can drill down into. Power BI comes with templates for representing data from Google Analytics, MailChimp, Azure Services, Salesforce, Dynamics, Oracle, and many more. These templates were created by Microsoft and other third parties to create beautiful, insightful, and dynamic reports and dashboards easily.
