The application should have the ability to be deployed / updated like any other Office Package, either via the Office 365 Pro Plus CTR approach or traditional patching. It should also respect Group Policy for control of user settings and ability to disable features that may infringe corporate security policies.

RE: Support Group Policy and WSUS / SCCM Updates
Locally installed software (from Microsoft), traditional MSI etc, should be update-able for non-admins using WSUS and/or Windows Update. The new mode to update via other methods is over complicating corporate environments. MS is making apps that update themselves like Teams (installed to a profile), while making MSI versions of the same software for VDI that DO NOT UPDATE, while making apps like Power BI that cannot be installed or updated by non-admins. Neither of these "modern" apps are available for patching via WSUS. This situation is ridiculous.

We also would like to have some admx-template to adjust settings with a group policy object (GPO). This would be very helpful when it comes to an enterprise deployment.
Also because of the high update frequency of Power BI Desktop it would be good to have such a feature. It would help to keep the settings on clients up to date. Especially when the available settings change from version to version this is the only way how to handle this in an enterprise deployment.

I am unable to update my PowerBI desktop since I got my new PC this past summer. Appreciate any improvements to this process.

There has to be a way to keep PowerBI updated and standardized throughout the organization.

I highly agree, my Micrsoft & Adobe patches are 100% automated via SCCM ADR's with the exception of Power BI Report Server & Power Bi Desktop.
At the very least a SCUP Catalog including the updates, would be extraordinary.

Idea sounds good .

We need this to manage updates to users

This is much needed.
RE: Support Group Policy and WSUS / SCCM Updates
Have you done some in-depth comparison between Power BI and Alteryx Designer desktop? Not exactly targeting the same user audience, but some "power users" intend to shift between Power BI (descriptive analytics, data visualization) and Alteryx-like functions (data integration, exploration, statistical analysis, predictive modeling, scoring, etc.). What is the roadmap or current capabilities on integrating Power BI with predictive analytics for "citizen data scientists"?

This is totally critical to deploy in a business environment which the product is supposedly targeted at...
