Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft BI

Microsoft BI has transformed the reporting process at JCT. It is being used across the whole organization due to ease of access to data and drilldowns. The company has created tools to give visibility of detailed level data to folks working at corporate as well as in the field.
  • Ability to drill down.
  • Automated refresh of data.
  • Ability to visualize data on charts and maps.
  • Need access to detailed map visuals.
  • Use Python or R scripts.
  • Need ability to input data.
Microsoft BI is much cheaper.
BI is well suited where organizations want to automate the reporting process. Less suited where organizations want advanced analytics to supplement their BI.
