Overview:

Excel and Power BI are both powerful Microsoft tools - but they're built for different stages of your analytics journey.

In this one-hour webinar, you'll discover where each tool shines, how they overlap, and how to use them together for maximum impact.

We'll break down the strengths, limitations, and real-world use cases of both platforms - from data modeling and automation in Excel to visualization and sharing in Power BI. You'll see live comparisons of the same dataset analyzed in both tools, and learn how to transition from spreadsheet-based reporting to interactive dashboards that drive better business decisions.
