848 posts on Reddit asked to hire someone for business dashboard between November 2025 and November 2026, 443 of them in the last 90 days, most on r/PowerBI, r/freelance_forhire, r/forhire.

## Paid separately, at cost
- Power BI Pro licences for people who publish or share reports, paid to Microsoft
- Paid connectors or data tools, if a source has no free connection

## What the buyer supplies
- Read access to each system the dashboard draws from
- The measures you want and how your team defines them
- Licences for the people who will view it, where the tool needs them

## What the price does not cover
- The agreed data sources; adding systems later is quoted
- Figures are only as accurate as the systems they come from
- How often it refreshes is limited by the tool's plan and each source

## A cheaper way to do it
- Microsoft says Power BI Desktop is a free download; sharing reports needs a Pro or Premium Per User licence. Source: [Microsoft: Power BI pricing](https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/power-platform/products/power-bi/pricing)
- Google describes Data Studio, where its Looker Studio help now leads, as a no-cost tool that turns data into reports. Source: [Google Cloud documentation: Data Studio](https://docs.cloud.google.com/looker/docs/studio)
