Microsoft integrates the Power BI App in Microsoft Teams Mobile
How Microsoft focusses on the Mobile Business Intelligence Market

In the future, Microsoft will offer Power BI as an integration of its mobile Teams version — this should give the trend towards Mobile Business Intelligence another boost.
Mobile Business Intelligence solutions deliver decision support information to tablets and smartphones. In essence, these are key figures that evaluate the course of business and the performance of the functional areas in the company. One restricts oneself to essential key figures, which one considers to be the key to success.
And since the image of the top manager at the airport with coffee in his hand, who works primarily via his cell phone, is often true, this could be the key. Managers often listen to their gut feeling, but there is a trend that data-driven business is gaining a foothold and management is relying more on numbers. This means that mobile BI solutions such as Power BI, which is now being used by teams, can be just the right thing.

Important reports and KPIs are now easily accessible via mobile devices and you can constantly check the latest figures. What is important for top management, by the way, I also see for engineers, for example, when they can monitor important IoT data from production facilities. Another interesting aspect would be home working, with these new possibilities, employees can work even better from other places. Microsoft announces that the App will be available in the Teams store within the next days and that users who have the Power BI app for Microsoft Teams and Teams Mobile installed on their phones or tablets will automatically get the new capability [1].
So great news for all Microsoft or Azure and Power BI users. They can now really focus on the trend of modern Mobile Business Intelligence. Of course, it is also important to have a suitable underlying infrastructure, because only if the basic framework is right, you can ultimately present only correct and up-to-date data — read more about this here.
