We’re Building The Ultimate Collaboration Tool For Power BI Users Called The Analyst Hub

by | Power BI

Power BI remains true to its name in the sense that it is one of the most powerful tools anyone can use for data reporting, visualization, analysis, and a lot more.

For some time now we’ve thought there must be a way for analysts to scale their development work in Power BI. Not only that, there should be a better way for individuals and teams to collaborate around their analytical work happening in Power BI.

That’s why we came up with the Enterprise DNA Analyst Hub.

We are currently developing the web-based application (first release due out in mid October) but already have an entire UI built and ready to showcase. You can learn more at the link below.

What Is The Analyst Hub?

Imagine improving the speed and effectiveness of your development work in Power BI by a factor of 3-5x. That’s what we believe we can enable with the Analyst Hub, and we’re going innovate until we get to those sort of improvements.

The Analyst Hub is a web-based platform that delivers all the tools you’ll ever need to enhance your Power BI experience and development work. It’s also community-based with a social network experience. Where users can share and collaborate on a range of Power BI specific tools and applications.

Think of it as a one-stop shop for all things Power BI. It will bring together a range of supporting applications for you to use to create amazing and insightful reports and dashboards.

What You Can Do In The Analyst Hub

Here’s a current list of attributes that will be included in our first launch of the application.

  • Log in and sign up for your own individual profile within the app
  • Dive into individual apps within our app center
  • Quickly navigate around different apps tailored to supporting Power BI development
  • Format your formulas with our DAX Clean Up tool
  • Save your formulas and DAX measures to your personal documents area for future referencing. Save 100s of formula patterns if you like
  • Edit your formula formats right within the app
  • Dynamically search through DAX formula information within the app
  • Find any colour theme combinations for your report designs
  • Save your themes for simple and easy referencing and uploading
  • Ability to save any individual development resource to your documents section
  • Edit, revise or share publicly all your documents with the community
  • Leverage off others by saving ideas to your own documents within the app
  • Variety of immersive community features including likes, comments and more
  • And many more unique features that would take too long to list
  • We think the community and documents area of the app is our killer

Our two main apps already exists (DAX Clean Up, Colour Theme Generator) but we’re wrapping them up into the new Analyst Hub application that allows more sharing and collaboration between other users. You can quickly leverage of others work and use this yourself to speed up your own development.

Here are some more details around the core apps we’ll be starting with.

DAX Clean Up Tool

The DAX Clean Up tool makes your DAX codes easier to read. You can format and edit your formula directly from the app. You can even save hundreds of formulas and measures, making it easier to access them the next time you need them.

Unsure about your measure’s format or about the data you’re referencing? The tool also makes it easy to search for DAX formula information to help you correct any errors and work seamlessly.

Colour Theme Generator

The way data is presented affects the amount of insights anyone can get out of it. That’s why it’s also important to choose the right colours that will allow you to compare and contrast data more effectively.

The Colour Theme Generator lets you choose different themes that will make your reports stand out. You can also save those themes and share them with the entire community.

How Does The Social And Collaboration Part Of Analyst Hub Work?

It’s about building your Individual Profile.

Think of the Analyst Hub as a social network built specifically for Power BI users. Interact and collaborate with everyone ranging from beginners to experts using your own login and profile.

You can also access the App Center right from your profile, making it easy to tap into all the tools and resources you need.

Personal And Community Documents

Each time you save a formula format or a colour theme (or any document from future apps we build), it all gets saved into your personal documents. Think of this as your personal cloud storage, allowing you to compile every personal project you work on, specifically for Power BI.

This also makes it easier for you to share your work with everyone else in the community. After all, we built the Analyst Hub to make working with Power BI an even more collaborative experience.
