Pros & Cons
Power BI
- Low per-seat price
- Free tier
- Microsoft ecosystem fit
- Copilot needs high-tier licences
- Fabric capacity costs thousands monthly
- Older pages show old prices
Gemini
- Deeply integrated across Google’s broader ecosystem (Search, Workspace, Android)
- Ultra tier pricing was reduced from its original $250/month, improving accessibility
- API pricing offers genuinely low-cost options (Flash-Lite at $0.10/million tokens) for cost-sensitive applications
- Full Workspace integration requires at least Business Standard ($14/user/month), not available on cheaper Workspace tiers
- Credit-based system layered on top of tier usage limits adds complexity to understanding real usage capacity
- Ultra tier’s $99.99-$199.99/month range represents significant cost for maximum usage limits and Deep Think access
