Powdered/Ground Ginger

For those who have used it, does it taste the same as using fresh ginger? If not, how close to the real deal is it?

When you don’t have the real thing, it'll pass
I have it with Syrup and fizzy water. It is great in recipes like stir fry chicken or pork. Baking pork with it also is great. I have it in my cupboard .
