Power BI vs. custom dashboard
| Power BI | Custom (iaminter.net) | |
|---|---|---|
| Licensing | Per seat, per month — ongoing | None — no per-seat fees, ever |
| Developer required | Yes — DAX, Gateway, data model | Handled for you at build time |
| Live data refresh | Premium only | Included |
| Data ownership | Microsoft's cloud | Your infrastructure, your data |
| Vendor lock-in | High | None — plain code you own |

How long does migration actually take?+
Most Power BI replacements land in 2–4 weeks. We usually run the new dashboard alongside Power BI for a sprint so you can cancel the subscription confidently — no overlap costs, no rushed cutover.
What about row-level security and live refresh?+
Both included, not Premium add-ons. Auth, row-level security, and live refresh are built into the app from day one — not locked behind a higher tier.
Can we reuse our existing DAX and data model?+
Yes. The DAX measures, data model, and business logic you've already built can seed the custom version. Nothing is wasted — we port what's working and drop what isn't.
// honest disclaimer — this isn't for you if:
- ×Your Microsoft commitment is fixed for non-technical reasons (corporate mandate, partnership tier). Power BI is staying — no point going further.
- ×Your Power BI footprint is fewer than 5 seats. Switching costs will likely outweigh the savings.
- ×Your finance team has settled on OpEx predictability as a strategic choice. The audit's recommendation pushes the other way.
