Power BI does not accept files larger than 250MB and there is a 1GB limit per dataset. As you scale, you will get stuck with Microsoft’s infrastructure, it’s quite cheap in the beginning when your goal is just visualizations but the cost will rise dramatically later when you scale up.
For building data models, analysts cannot use SQL. They have to learn a new language.
Power BI only supports just a few limited data sources for real-time connection. Power BI limits the number of scheduled refreshes per day.
