Yesterday’s Excel vs. Power BI: Choosing the Right Tool and Why Adoption Gets Stuck session led to a great discussion.

The biggest takeaway?

Excel and Power BI should not be treated as enemies.

Many organizations need both — but they also need a clear way to decide when Excel is the right tool, when Power BI is the better fit, and how to help teams make that transition successfully.

The live demo was the highlight of the session, especially the workflow walkthrough that showed how reporting can move from familiar spreadsheet habits to more interactive Power BI dashboards.

We also touched on the growing interest in Copilot and the importance of having the right Power BI foundation in place before expecting advanced tools to do the heavy lifting.

If your team is trying to make the move from Excel to Power BI, I’ll be offering a 1-day From Excel to Power BI: Adoption Accelerator class on May 20.

More details coming soon.

Most organizations don’t struggle with Power BI because of the tool.

They struggle with what happens after the rollout.

A few months in…
🚩Teams are still using Excel
🚩Reports aren’t being used consistently
🚩Data gets pulled out of Power BI and worked on in Excel

At that point, your single source of truth is gone.

That’s not just frustrating; it’s a data governance issue.

Anyone blaming the technology is heading down the wrong path.
The problem is, no one showed how Excel and Power BI work together or how to move between them in a way that works.

Our founder, Jackie Kiadii, MCT, Retired Microsoft MVP is hosting a live session this week to break this down in a practical way:

Excel vs. Power BI: Choosing the Right Tool and Why Adoption Gets Stuck

One of our specialties is customized Excel training. Another is helping organizations when users are reluctant to adopt the transition from Excel to Power BI.

Common scenarios:

Teams invest in Power BI, but months later…
• Reports are still being built in Excel
• Power BI dashboards aren’t being used consistently
• Business users are going back and forth with data teams, trying to get the reports they need
• People ask for the data back in Excel so they can “finish it themselves.”

Here’s the thing: Excel isn’t wrong. Power BI isn’t automatically right. Trying to force teams to abandon Excel and move to Power BI does not work.

A key to success is understanding how the two tools work together and how to move between them in a way that works for your team.

This is something we’ve helped organizations navigate across a range of industries.

That’s exactly what we’ll be covering in this upcoming live session:

Excel vs. Power BI: Choosing the Right Tool and Why Adoption Gets Stuck

In this session, we’ll break down:

• How Excel and Power BI compare in real-world use
• What Power BI does (without the jargon)
• Why adoption gets stuck in organizations
• How the two tools work together

If your team is exploring Power BI or struggling to get traction after rollout, this session will give you clarity on what to do next. Feel free to share this post with any organization you think will benefit.
