MS, give us some updates on this request. Why can't we have Paginated reports with PRO? For small non-profits like us, it is IMPOSSIBLE to get expensive Premium.

Please add to Power BI Pro Service. We have rapid transit BI framework developed over 10+ on MS BI and ML stack. We moved to PBI, but had to retain low level detailed multilevel reports for engineers in SSRS. Engineering company tends to start with Pro and then commit to Premium based on solution's ROI. So, our market really needs this awesome feature in Pro. Thank you. Have to admit that I am surprised and impressed the way MS PBI team listens to customers and developers. Keep up!

RE: Paginated reports - please make it available in Pro as well as Premium

As a consultant for Microsoft's Project Online product, there would be many delighted customers if paginated reports were available for PowerBI.com, without needing the Premium service as this is typically cost prohibitive.


To provide paginated reports at the moment for Project Online customers typically involves SSRS along with hosting an on-premise Report Server; now all of a sudden Project Online is not really "online" anymore.

Please, please make this a PowerBI pro feature.

I'm a Microsoft BI and Azure Data Services Architect. From a cost, development, security and scalability perspective the best combination for an organization is to use Azure Analysis Services combined with Power BI Pro licenses. Paginated reports are the only missing piece in this setup. Please add to Power BI Pro Service.

Will be looking at other alternatives until this is delivered. Major shortcoming in the product stack.

Including this seemingly simple feature with Pro would be a game changer for so many of us. Providing smaller to mid sized shops the ability to further leverage existing SSRS investments would push us over the top in choosing Power BI over competing products.

I agree with all the comments posted below. The current paginated feature is extremely expensive. I don't think we can even think of offering this to our customers. I have no option but to look for an alternative to powerbi as pagination requirement is so high in our road map.

RE: Paginated reports - please make it available in Pro as well as Premium

It's just a shame that there is no true SSRS in the cloud. For customers who have been using the Microsoft BI stack for over a decade and want to migrate to the cloud, there's no alternative. Suddenly they need to purchase Power BI Premium? Or do a convoluted work around with Power BI embedded?

Yes x 1,000,000,000! Any sane developer/business knows we need this in the standard Power BI service. Please make it available!
