Right now, If I use PowerBI desktop to create a dataset, report and dashboard. I am not able to share it with a standard user. This effectively means that we have to either licence everyone as a pro (very expensive for 4k people), or not use the pro features at all (which isn't what we want).

Pro users should be able to build and schedule the PowerBI, and then be able to share with any company user using AD security groups.
Without these options the tool may not be a viable option...

Agreed, in order to make this a viable option that we want to promote to our customer base, we need the ability to publish content into our clients accounts/groups. This would require having the ability to publish content outside of our own domain.

RE: Share a Pro dashboard with a standard user

yeah, i'm still confused as to the licensing of Power BI 2.0. I own Office 365 and Power BI for Office 365 and some of my users come up as Pro Trial.
