Pretty much everything mentioned in this post is standard fare among the major self-service BI vendors now - and if they don't have it it's on their roadmap.
I would say the big advantages of Power BI are
1) Cost: In some cases it's an almost 5:1 cost advantage
2) User Community: Far more important than costs. There's a ton of third-party resources (books, blogs, forums, etc) on how to get the most out of Power BI's underlying technologies: DAX and M. I think you're going to be more likely to find a Power BI meetup in your city than one for another BI vendor.
