Construct data transformations through a visual, step-by-step interface without writing code. Users click through operations like filtering, sorting, and reshaping data, with each step automatically generating M language code in the background.
Automatically detect and assign appropriate data types (text, number, date, boolean) to columns based on content analysis. Reduces manual type-setting and catches data quality issues early.
Stack multiple datasets vertically to combine rows from different sources. Automatically aligns columns by name and handles mismatched schemas.
Split a single column into multiple columns based on delimiters, fixed widths, or patterns. Extracts structured data from unstructured text fields.
Convert data between wide and long formats. Pivot transforms rows into columns (aggregating values), while unpivot transforms columns into rows.
Identify and remove duplicate rows based on all columns or specific key columns. Keeps first or last occurrence based on user preference.
Detect, replace, and manage null or missing values in datasets. Options include removing rows, filling with defaults, or using formulas to impute values.
Power Query scores higher at 32/100 vs Finsheet at 27/100. However, Finsheet offers a free tier which may be better for getting started.
