Power BI

Get ready for future data analytics

Self-service is just the beginning

Power BI is known as a leading self-service tool that allows business users to quickly link and visualise data for ad-hoc analysis on their own. But Microsoft’s analytics service is so much more! As an integral part of Azure Cloud Services, Power BI can be expanded into an enterprise-wide data platform that combines Reporting, Data Analytics, Data Science and Internet of Things.

Power BI as a modern analytics platform

How to get more value from your data

Different from other self-service solutions, Power BI is much easier to expand into a fully integrated analytics platform – especially if you already use Microsoft technologies. This is because the services of the Azure Cloud are closely interlocked. You don’t have to spend a long time in developing appropriate interfaces. Instead, you can add further services to Power BI according to the modular principle, whereby the offer ranges from data integration and data storage to IoT, Process Mining or Artificial Intelligence (AI). SAP sources can also be seamlessly integrated.

This gives you a consistent overall solution that enables data-driven collaboration between the different parts of the company. Other tools or systems are replaced and their requirements are brought together in one user interface. The advantages of this approach are confirmed by competent experts. Thanks to the interaction and high degree of maturity of Azure Services, Microsoft has been leading the Gartner Magic Quadrant for BI and Analytics Platforms for many years.
