Organizations can use Power BI to translate a wealth of data into actionable insights.

Main features and enhancements in Business Intelligence Platform for Dynamics 365 Spring 18 Release:

For example, users can use canvas tooltips to express more detail in context. Excel users who use the matrix visual receive measure-driven conditional formatting, and the ability to expand or collapse sections of the visual.
