RIght now, on powerbi.com, there is no ability to organize reports, dashboards, etc into folders. If you have a lot of content or users, this gets messy quickly.

Please add the ability to organize into folders (and secure those folders separately)

Users can create a mess with hierarchical directories too. I prefer a tagging system with search functionality built in to cortana and natural language processing

Summer is over. :) Is our current state (Using "Groups" to segregate content?) final state?

the ability to group dashboards and reports by Departments would be great.

System I'm trying to move from has over 200 reports. That will look silly without folders.

Very much looking forward to this new feature. Getting very desperate now to clean up my long list of dashboards. Hopefully something like an expand and collapse button is coming

Combining Chart Types and Adding a Second Axis will be a good feature to add. For financial data analysis and sales vrs growth or sales ($) vrs Forecast (%) is really necessary... we need to compare $$$$ vrs %%% in a single graphic.

Thanks... your videos are really good, clears and specific :)

With more dashboards been shared across our organisation that area on the left is really busy.
Move the reports & datasets section to another tab (or at least combine their menu options).

For dashboards folders would be good.....infact why not have a Power BI dashboard to mange our dashboards ( a tile for each dashboard or even hieararchy of dashboards) a bit like a visual folder with top level hierarchy of dashboards.
