Excel in the millions

Introduction

Microsoft Excel is one of the most widely used tools for data analysis, but traditional Excel has some real limitations: it can be very time-consuming importing and cleaning data; Excel can only fit a million rows; and while pivot tables are a great analysis tool they can only get data from a single flattened table and the calculations they perform are very limited. With the new power tools that has all changed! In this advanced course we introduce Power Query for automating the process of getting and transforming data, Power Pivot for building related data models able to contain millions of rows and DAX functions which allow us to perform sophisticated analyses in our Pivots.
