Power BI Desktop lets you create a collection of queries, data connections, and reports

that can easily be shared with others. Power BI Desktop integrates proven Microsoft
technologies—the powerful Microsoft Power Query for Excel engine, data modeling,
and visualizations—and works seamlessly with the online Power BI service.

Through the combination of Power BI Desktop (where analysts and others can create
powerful data connections, models, and reports) and the Power BI service (where
Power BI Desktop reports can be shared, so that users can view and interact with
them), new insights from the world of data are easier to model, build, share, and extend.

Data analysts will find Power BI Desktop a powerful, flexible, and a highly accessible
tool for connecting with and shaping the world of data, building robust models, and
crafting well-structured reports.
