About the Course

In this 2-hour long project-based course, you will learn the basics of using Power BI Desktop software. We will do this by analyzing data on credit card defaults with Power BI Desktop. Power BI Desktop is a free Business Intelligence application from Microsoft that lets you load, transform, and visualize data. You can create interactive reports and dashboards quite easily, and quickly. We will learn some of the basics of Power BI by importing, transforming, and visualizing the data. This course is aimed at learners who are looking to get started with the Power BI Desktop software. There are no hard prerequisites and any competent computer user should be able to complete the project successfully. Note: This course works best for learners who are based in the North America region. We’re currently working on providing the same experience in other regions....

Simple, easy and short course. Would definitely recommend it if you were looking to learn about power BI in a short period. Very informative and provide good explanation of the basics of the software,

Only needed a refresher course, as I was using BI, after a long time. The instructor touched upon every importanat detail that you are going to need and the rest you can figure out on your own. Kudos

Able to find some YouTube videos teaches us better than this course. Not satisfied comparing the cost paid to the outcome of the project. Better to follow good YouTube videos to start learning power BI. Connectivity to Cloud desktop has frequent disconnection in-spite of having a good internet connection.

I would like to suggest the instructor to improve the quiz provided in this guided project to add some challenges in attempting to challenge learners to next level. the quiz was very easy to be given a certificate. otherwise thank you!

The class was good but too short. You will have to complete another course in oder to get the basics and to the point where you can work on your own project. Coursera's MyCloud Workspace needs to be improved and have the bugs fixed.

The guided project virtual machine for the user doesnt load and that part of the course isnt as user friendly compared to other guided projects I have taken up before plus it needs to be refreshed in like every 5 mins or so

This course just covers basic knowledge of Power BI, if on a buiness setting, the knowledge may not be sufficient to enable one carry out advanced analysis. But it's good to beginner to understand the flow.

The data vanished when I once mistakenly closed the tab where the tool was open, and the file got corrupted, due to which i wasn't able to do all the tasks,

Un proyecto un poco pobre ya que es solo para la visualización. Tratas con datos sería entrar en realizar modelos de datos y ni abre esa pestaña.

Hard to see both screens on one monitor. Took a while for me to figure out how to duplicate the screen to two monitors and then zoom in both.

There is a problem with working on the Power BI desktop you've provided us with. I couldn't download date to try doing something on my own

It was really easy and could be potentially covered in a youtube video. It does serve as a good intro but not really worth it.

I had some difficulty navigating the screen and was unable to go back for practice when I needed to.
