This is the essence of white-labeling in the world of Power BI – it’s about making the powerful analytics and insights engine feel like it’s truly yours, tailor-made for your brand and your clients with various Power BI whitelabel options.

Power BI embedded
While Power BI offers a solid foundation for business intelligence, its native customization options barely scratch the surface of what’s possible when we talk about brand integration. For businesses seeking to weave their brand identity seamlessly through every touchpoint, including analytics, the built-in features of Power BI may feel like painting with a limited palette. The essence of your brand, with its unique colors, fonts, and style, demands more than just superficial adjustments. That’s where Power BI embedded comes into play.
Now, you might wonder, “Should I build this customized home from the ground up or is there a shortcut?” Building it yourself means you can get exactly what you want, but it’s a bit like baking bread from scratch — satisfying but time-consuming. Here’s where ready-made solutions like DataTako comes into play, offering you the kitchen, oven, and even the recipe to bake that bread in minutes, not hours.
DataTako allows you to configure a fully whitelabel reporting portal in a matter of minutes, embed your Power BI reports, fully customize the look and feel and even use your own domain! You are able to share reports with anyone, anywhere in the world, including external users such as vendors or customers.
