Power BI to Microsoft Fabric Migration Services

Modernize analytics and realize greater ROI with our secure and structured migration services.

Differentiator #1:

SQL & Unstructured Data

With Data Flow Gen2, Fabric natively unifies SQL and unstructured data handling, unlike Power BI which primarily supports structured sources.

Differentiator #2:

Built-in Data Governance

Power BI lacks native governance, while Fabric integrates Purview for consistent data management and compliance.

Differentiator #3:

Assistance with Copilot

Unlike Power BI, Fabric includes Copilot, offering AI-driven insights and automation to accelerate analytics and decision-making.

Power BI vs Fabric: From Insights to Intelligence

Choosing between Power BI and Fabric depends on your unique business needs. As data volume and complexity grow, Fabric provides a unified platform with analytics, governance, and AI to maximize value and drive continuous innovation.

Note: Power BI Premium P SKUs were retired as of January 2025, making migration to Fabric mandatory for Premium users.

Frequently Asked Questions

Microsoft Fabric is a unified analytics platform covering data integration, engineering, warehousing, data science, real-time analytics, and business intelligence. Power BI is the business intelligence workload within Fabric, providing dashboards, reports, and data visualizations. Using Fabric allows all roles—data engineers, analysts, and business users, to collaborate while leveraging Power BI for insights.

No. Power BI remains the BI experience within Fabric. Fabric adds additional analytics capabilities and deeper integration but does not remove Power BI. Migration to Fabric enables you to access enhanced features, governance, AI capabilities, and enterprise-scale analytics.

Transition from Power BI Premium to Microsoft Fabric allows you to consolidate datasets in OneLake, leverage Direct Lake Mode, and integrate with new Fabric features like Dataflow Gen2 and Copilot AI. While many reports work with little change, migrating ensures you benefit from improved performance, governance, and advanced analytics capabilities.

Fabric is licensed at the organization level and requires a Fabric capacity license. Power BI Pro licenses are still needed for report creation and consumption. Migration to Fabric enables access to unified data management, AI-driven insights, and enhanced compliance features like Microsoft Purview.

Centralized analytics storage with OneLake for all organizational data
Faster queries via Direct Lake Mode without duplicating datasets
Improved dataflows with Dataflow Gen2 for ETL automation and accessibility
AI-assisted insights and report generation through Copilot
Strong governance and compliance via Purview and our Data Compliance Services
