The business world is increasingly getting data-driven. Data helps them make decisions about various things, including sales, hiring, goals, and all areas for which an organization has data. However, in raw form, it can be intimidating for businesses to understand that data as they, usually, don’t have a background in statistics or data analytics. To get insights from it, data must be in an easy-to-understand format so that it can be easily communicated to concerned people. Power BI Banking takes out all the hassle of spending hours into drawing insights from raw data.
What is a Power BI?
Power BI, a product of Microsoft, is a collection of software services, apps, and connectors that will transform your unrelated sources of data into coherent, visually attractive, and interactive insights that an organization can use. No matter if you manage your data in a Microsoft Excel workbook, a collection of cloud-based and onsite hybrid data warehouses, Power BI allows you to connect to data sources, clean, and organize your data without impact underlying sources. With Power BI, you can easily discover and visualize what is crucial and share that with anyone you need to.
Power BI Banking consists of:
- Microsoft Windows desktop application – Power BI Desktop

- Mobile Power BI apps available on phones as well as tablets
All these three elements are designed in a way so that people create, share, and use insights most effectively.
