There are three types of Power BI users to consider for your deployment:

Content creators

Content creators create data visualizations and author reports. They use the free Power BI Desktop tool to prepare, model, and create data visualizations.

Content publishers

Content publishers require collaboration, data modeling, content authoring, dashboard sharing, ad hoc analysis, and report publishing. These users require a Power BI Pro license.

Content consumers

Content consumers use pre-published dashboards and reports. There are two options for giving consumers access to content—license everyone on Power BI Pro, or license Power BI Premium for large scale userbases.
