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

Hi, Please reconsider availability of Paginated report to Pro users. Purchasing PPU licenses for every report consumer is not feasible for SMB's. We are already paying Pro licenses and only a handful of individuals in the organisation are actually creating report. Rest are only consuming!It already difficult to justify cost of purchasing pro licence for users that only consume reports. Paying PPU for every user that will only consume paginated reports is not possible to justify added cost.I hope you can reconsider enabling Paginated reports for Pro License users

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

Please revisit this request: Folks may only need a handful of paginated reports at their company - hoping to move from SSRS into the cloud, and PPU licenses should allow a technical report designer to share a final report with any Pro user without requiring every consumer of the report to upgrade to PPU. It's not possible for an SMB to expect PPU licenses for everyone opening the report, and the $5k/month price tag for premium capacity is impossible to afford or justify for companies with under 1000 users.

BI is new to my division of a global company. I'm trying to get buy-in for Power BI since we are already largely on Microsoft Stacks. To scale, I am starting with Pro licenses but cannot even proof-of-concept such a basic reporting feature (maybe eventually to a premium capacity) even with a paid pro license. Please, guys.

I'm getting tired of being nickle and dimes to death with add another license and yet another license. There is no way to get prints of a list item unless you use PowerBI and PowerBI Pro does not do paginated reports. Please add paginated reporting to Pro

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

I agree with this comment "Unfortunately creating a new paid for Premium user licence to get paginated reports does not solve the requested item for it to be available to premium license users, therefore I do not consider this activity as PLANNED." Adding a Premium per user option is not adding it to Pro. Why would Pro (meaning professional) not include the basic value of a paginated report? I agree with the other comment that not including it will make people choose other products. Again you've shown why it has been so hard for me to get my company's management on board with fully using your reporting products (SSRS and now this one). Sad but true. Guess I will have to learn the other reporting tools they've been pushing me to use.

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

We need Paginated Reports for Power BI Embedded with the lower capacity SKUs such as A1 and A2 as well. Our usage doesn't warrant paying for A4 capacity, which is now required to get Paginated Reports. So we would need to pay substantially more just to get Paginated Reports. That forces us to host SSRS on premise, which adds complexity and gap in integration.

Please, please, please! Having a hybrid SSRS & PowerBI setup sucks. We want to move with the times. Please add this to the Pro licence.

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

For Paginated Reports to have the same ability / functionality as PowerBI Pro, is a small ask.
Initially I thought this would be such a great solution in our company, but then that price !!! It is incomprehensible to have such a massive price difference.

Now I am forced to look for an alternative solution and I am guessing that we are one of many companies that are willing to pay even double the pro license just to have the Paginated Reports capabilities and ability to publish to the Service. But it is going to cost us a 1000 times more to just to have that ability.

This is bot feasible at this point and the hunt for an affordable Report authoring tool continues.... ;-(
