A warehouse-native BI tool queries data directly from your cloud warehouse (Snowflake, BigQuery, Databricks, etc.) without copying data into a separate BI server or semantic layer. This eliminates ETL bottlenecks, reduces latency, ensures real-time freshness, and keeps security policies at the warehouse source.
Microsoft Power BI delivers the lowest cost-per-user in the market at approximately £14/user/month with DirectQuery mode for real-time warehouse access. For organisations deploying BI across hundreds of users, Power BI typically provides significantly better economics than any competing platform.
