Power BI is a robust, modeling and real-time analytics tool that is already powerful on its own, but when combined with Microsoft Dynamics 365, the two provide a powerful self-service analytics solution with helpful insights.

The Sales Analytics Dashboard in Dynamics 365 allows you to easily visualize and analyze your sales and marketing data. It provides you with a Power BI Report with several detailed tabs that show different charts and graphs, including sales performance, sales leader-board, win/loss analysis, sales pipeline, lead analysis, and account analysis. Using each of these tabs allows you to dive deeper into your data and gain a different perspective on the sales process.
