Hi,
An existing solution used a single table Access database and Excel to generate reports. I wanted this as a SharePoint Solution so I moved the Access table to a SharePoint List and created the same reports in Excel. I know now that you can't refresh SharePoint Lists in Excel Services which I thought would have been great as they may not have Excel Client. So is there any way to get around this without installing PowerPivot/PerformancePoint/SSRS?
It's been a good six months since I looked at BI stuff. This company doesn't have an instance of SharePoint Online.
Is Excel still the best/only free way I can display reports. I have seen these technologies, but they seem tied into SharePoint Online:
Power BI Desktop
Power BI Personal Gateway
Power BI Designer
Will any of these solutions help solve the data refresh issue with Excel Services????
Thanks.
John.
