DAX Tools Video Course
The DAX Tools video course teaches how to use three popular tools to write and optimize DAX: DAX Studio, VertiPaq Analyzer, and Analyze in Excel for Power BI Desktop. All these tools are free and open-source.
DAX Studio allows you to write DAX queries and test your DAX measures in an environment where you can check the results and measure performance. You can also use DAX Studio to export data in different formats. VertiPaq Analyzer requires DAX Studio to export statistics and metadata about a data model that you can investigate in more detail using the dedicated tool. You can investigate in compression and get documentation about all the DAX expressions used in a model using VertiPaq Analyzer.
Analyze in Excel for Power BI Desktop makes it very handy to test your Power BI model using an Excel PivotTable without having to publish the model to the Power BI service. During the development of new DAX formulas, this tool shortens the waiting time and increases your productivity.
The course is made of 129 minutes of lectures. You can watch the videos at any time and the system will keep track of your progress. Within the course, you can download the files used in the demos.

This is excellent, I have been learning these tools in bits and pieces, now i see all shaped in one Video explaining in detail.

Excellent course. I have been fan and follower of your teaching, such a smooth flow and you go with such a systematic manner. I have been working in PowerBI since last 3 years and want to pursue your other courses mainly DAX and data modelling, but truly speaking very expensive, it would be nice if you can reduce the cost a little lower or give option of smaller monthly amounts or so.

The video tutorials provided are easy to grasp the different aspects of DAX studio, Vertipaq Analyzer and Analyze in Excel tools. This made to start the journey in Power Bi with more professional approach. Thankyou SQLBI.

Really enjoyed this course, it gave a useful insight into how to maximise the external tools to increase efficiency and performance. I do use all 3 tools but now can really utilise the features to improve my work. Lovely short and sharp course that was easily digestible and will make a big difference to me. Thank you.

Excelente! Me ayudó mucho a comprender mejor estas herramientas. Muchas gracias

Admittedly, I never bothered to try to learn these tools, so I didn't use them very much. This course does a good job of showing off most of the features of each tool. At the beginning of the course, they say that this course is a prerequisite for all of their DAX courses. To add to this, I find that this course is especially important to take if you took or will take Optimizing DAX.

Excellent introduction into the new frontier myriad of Data Analysis/Modelling!!!

Hi. Thanks so much for this training. It's excellent and I've already picked up functionality that I didn't know was there. Also a small(ish) point, I found out that the Query Builder is not visible by default. It needs to be activated via Options - so now I have it. Thanks once again. I shall definitely be using Dax Studio more and the Excel connector now that I know it exists! Erica Dyson
