We were impressed with Power BI for Office 365 when we checked it out earlier this year. The tool has now upgraded with a new 'Q&A' feature that makes it easy to create visualisations from simple natural language queries.
Microsoft has also enhanced its Power Query tool and renamed its GeoFlow technology as PowerMap. Collectively, it's a useful set of tools for when you need to create visualisations from complex data sets.
Right now, the product is still in preview, but you can be waitlisted to sign up and access it. Hit the announcement post for more details.

Very nice article, I used some of your useful concepts to write my own article: Self-Service Business Intelligence and Natural Language Reporting. I'd love to get your feedback. Don't you think that Natural Language Business Intelligence is the next step of Business Intelligence's evolution?
