The ease of use is the main reason, so I am a Microsoft office user for more than 10 years.

And the amazing features such as DAX , Power query built inside had made our life very easy and made analytics in a better way.

With Power query data cleaning can be done extremely easy in power bi when compared to other BI tools.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The customer service was pretty bad and it can be improved in the future.
