Excel PowerPivot and Power Query

If you work with data, you're likely already familiar with common frustrations with Microsoft Excel like size limitations and manually entering data from multiple sources.

Luckily there are two Microsoft tools- PowerPivot and PowerQuery-that solve ALL of these issues, right inside Excel. No Access to databases or IT department help is needed. With imports of 1 million-plus rows of data sets from virtually any source and the ability to save query definitions, you can completely overhaul your reporting and analysis workflow.

Power Query and Power Pivot complement each other. Power Query is the recommended experience for discovering, connecting to, and importing data. Power Pivot is great for modeling the data you’ve imported.
