# Domo vs Microsoft Fabric vs Power BI: 2026 Comparison

**[Medium](https://daily.dev/sources/medium_js)** · 8 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Following Progress Software's $400 million acquisition of Domo (agreement signed July 22, closing expected by November 30, 2026), the piece compares Domo, Microsoft Fabric, Power BI, and Knowi as replacement options. It argues Power BI alone can't replace Domo's full scope (alerts, ETL, embedded analytics require Power Automate, Fabric, or Power Apps add-ons). Microsoft Fabric costs are broken down (e.g., $70K-$100K+ annually depending on SKU and licensing), and there's no automatic tool to convert Domo's Magic ETL flows or Beast Modes into Fabric, requiring 4-9 month rebuilds for mid-market estates. Knowi is presented as an alternative offering unified analytics with managed Domo migration and flat pricing.

## Questions this post answers

### What happens to Domo after the Progress Software acquisition?

Progress Software signed an agreement on July 22 to acquire Domo for $400 million, with the transaction expected to close by November 30, 2026. Progress will assume Domo's operating business, intellectual property, and technology platform, and will continue supporting the Domo platform after closing. Domo will change its name and ticker but remain a separate publicly-listed entity with limited operating expenses.

_Track how the Domo-Progress deal reshapes BI platform choices by following updates on daily.dev._

### Can Power BI fully replace Domo's features?

No, Power BI alone cannot replace Domo. It can replace Domo's dashboard and semantic modeling layer, but Domo is a fully integrated platform handling ETL, workflows, and alerts out-of-the-box. Matching Domo's full scope requires adopting additional Microsoft ecosystem tools such as Power Automate, Fabric, and Power Apps, each with separate licensing and permissions.

_Weighing Power BI against a full Domo replacement is easier with daily.dev's coverage of BI tooling trade-offs._

### How much does migrating from Domo to Microsoft Fabric cost and how long does it take?

Microsoft Fabric costs roughly $70,000-$80,000 annually for 200 users on reserved F32, $60,000-$70,000 for 20 authors and 200 viewers on reserved F64, and at least $100,000 running always-on pay-as-you-go, excluding overage and storage. Migration takes 2-4 months for small estates under 25 dashboards, 4-9 months for mid-market estates of 90-150 dashboards, and 9-18+ months for complex embedded-analytics deployments, since there is no automatic conversion of Domo's Magic ETL flows or Beast Modes.

_Budgeting a Domo-to-Fabric migration gets easier when developers compare real cost breakdowns on daily.dev._
