Navigation between multiple reports in the same workbook is handled by tabs or pages.

 

Power BI supports global "report level" filters as well as page level filters and filters on individual visualizations

 

To publish a report, a user chooses "File | Publish | Publish to Power BI". This is done securely via TLS encryption

 

You can embed reports easily and securely. In SharePoint Online, for example, there is a modern web part for doing this.

 

User management and access rights are handled via Office 365 administration as well as certain access privileges are handled in the Power BI admin console. You can also leverage Row Level Security within individual data models to control who can see what information.

 

I am not aware of any specific browser limitations with Power BI Service other than really old versions of today's browsers.

 

I do not understand the javascript compatibility question or the context of it.

 

In terms of performance, that's kind of tricky to pin down. Performance in what aspect, data load, rendering, ? In general, both products have similar performance characteristics. Power BI tends to allow you to create more complex models than Tableau because it is based upon SQL Server Analysis Services tabular. Also, Power BI's query editor allows much greater data mashup than native Tableau (most serious Tableau users use Alteryx to augment this). Power BI's data ingest is FAST, as in faster than SSIS in my experience.

DAX is easy, CALCULATE makes DAX hard...

is this possible to provide some UI(Button or shape) on report using which user can be re-directed on another report ?

is this possible to convert a Global "report level" filter in some UI filter(Slicer,drop down) which can be checked/unchecked by user

I'm assuming this data is publihsed on Azure , how secure it is and if organization want there dedicated  inhouse server ?

I was asking can we make modification/add actions/functionality using java script , same can be done in Tableau.

Scenario could be if there is dashboard is created on same data set on tableau and power bi in same enviroment which one will render fast with less wait time ?
