At Pivotstream, we leverage tabular models to enforce row-level security as well as establish all-important data AND measure governance... all the while letting users construct ad hoc reports as they desire... These reports can either be published on a custom URL via our secure, enterprise SP farm, or modified right on the users client Excel instance for the ultimate in flexibility, security, and performance. You can absolutely have Microsoft BI on your terms, and our cloud. Hybrid BI without O365 or SharePoint requirements.
