What is Microsoft Power Query?
Power Query is a data transformation and data preparation engine. Power Query comes with a graphical interface for getting data from sources and a Power Query Editor for applying transformations. Because the engine is available in many products and services, the destination where the data will be stored depends on where Power Query was used. Using Power Query, you can perform the extract, transform, and load (ETL) processing of data.

What differentiates Microsoft Power Query from other similar products?
Power Query can import data into a single data source, such as an Excel document, or multiple databases, sources, or cloud services. You can use Power Query to combine all those data sources, as well as your own custom joins and transformations, to discover new insights. From the external data source, you can update the data with additions, changes, and deletions.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
I like Microsoft Power Query is a tool that helps: Create a one-of-a-kind tabular form to meet your data analysis requirements. External data can be imported or connected. You can use Excel to produce charts and reports based on the query. You can remove a column, change a data type, and filter the rows.
What do you dislike most about this product?
For those who aren't familiar with Excel, Microsoft Power Query has a steep learning curve.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
I recommend Microsoft Power Query as it allows you to: Track everything you do with your data by capturing and labeling each transformation or step you apply to your data. By adding or combining many queries in an Excel workbook, you can combine them. The query options dialog allows you to change the load options.
