DATA SOURCES

Power BI and Tableau can both connect to

many kinds of data, such as databases,
spreadsheets, cloud services, and big data
platforms.

But Power BI has more built-in connectors

than Tableau, which means it can access

Power BI also works better with Microsoft

products, such as Excel, SharePoint, Azure,
