Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft BI

Microsoft BI is being utilized throughout the organization. Executive management and sales representatives are looking not only at sales but profitability all the way down to the transaction level. Product Management continues to look and analyze profitability at the product level as well. The company has been “healthier” since implementing Microsoft BI from a profitability and cash standpoint.
  • Easy to use and create KPI's with Dashboards for a wide user base
  • Pulling data from multiple sources via Excel
  • Easily supportive
  • Low cost to maintain
  • More end user friendly Dashboard designer.
  • Provided visibility at the Transactions level from a profitability standpoint
  • Sales reps are now using BI Dashboards to measure their success not just net sales
  • Company now measures customers from as well at a profitability standpoint
The Microsoft BI tool both from an integration and cost / investment standpoint makes perfect sense as to why we chose the Microsoft BI tool.
Cost, ease of use and standardization of the Microsoft stack.
We selected Microsoft’s BI tool for the fact that a tool was needed to measure the company above and beyond “just sales”. We also needed a tool that could grow with Graham-Field. While there were many tools to choose from during the section process, having a Microsoft platform from data to portals makes the Microsoft BI tool a much easier choice from both an integration and implementation standpoint.
