Power BI performance optimization and data quality
If reports load slowly, refreshes take hours or numbers don’t match, we address the root cause, from the model and DAX to the gateway and the data source.
What we do
Model analysis
With VertiPaq Analyzer and DAX Studio we review model size, column structure and relationships and remove unnecessary load.
DAX optimization
We analyze slow measures using query plans and make them more efficient and readable.
Refresh and gateway
We fix long-running or failing refreshes, gateway configuration and incremental refresh setup.
Report page performance
Using Performance Analyzer we find bottlenecks per visual and page and speed up the user experience.
Data quality and reconciliation
We identify differences between source systems and reports and set up lasting checks and alerts.
Best practice audit
With Tabular Editor’s Best Practice Analyzer we audit the model against enterprise standards and deliver a prioritized improvement list.

Ask a questionWhy does our report load slowly?
The most common causes are oversized models, bidirectional and complex relationships, inefficient DAX measures and too many visuals on one page. We measure to find the real cause.
Do you rebuild reports from scratch to optimize them?
Usually not. We first prioritize the improvements with the biggest impact; in most cases targeted changes to the model and DAX are enough.
