Key differentiators with PowerBI ETL-capabilities

Thanks. Personally I appreciate:

  • the sandbox in EasyMorph which allows testing a lot of small things very quickly that seems more cumbersome in other tools.

  • Sending emails using the mail action

  • The “find in actions” option to trace where column is used in the flow.

  • The speed by which a data flow can be designed.

  • Iterations

  • The simple GUI

  • Search options on fields, values

Things that could be improved:

  • Sampling records in all types of import files (e.g. get first 1000 rows of a DSET file)
  • More statistical functions
  • Running SQL-queries with a given batch size to append to a CSV so that it can be run on a pc with less RAM available.
  • Generating parameters from column values.
  • Be able to capture the expressions in for example create new column as column values
  • More connectors: e.g. to Azure Blob storage.
  • Higher performance to read big CSV-files ( > 1 mln records)
  • Capture the DDL statement when using create table action without having to create the table in the database.
  • Allowing keep matching and mismatching database rows when one only has read only rights on the database.
    Facilitiating incremental loads from database to other data stores.
  • Native integration with R and Python.
  • More view options (zoom in/out, auto arrange data flow to make it more clear
