1855 Microsoft Power BI Testimonials

“Instead of having 5 or 6 people in an organization who are experts in data, you now have 500, 600, 700 people in the organization that are excited by it, because they see it, they get it. You’re winning hearts and minds of people in terms of using data to do a better job.”

"We have a consultant working on Power Apps for us. He’s not a programmer, but can create apps that integrate right into CRM. This will really help us automate—the STARS app is just the start. We have at least another 50 processes that are paper-based and could be digitized using Power Apps.”

"The lightbulb moment for us came when we realized what we could accomplish by combining our own knowledge and insights with Microsoft Teams and the Microsoft Power Platform. Our field employees could access everything they needed to serve a customer in one place, accessible from any device."

"Many teachers are not tech-comfortable. Putting it [Power Apps and Power BI] in Teams made it easy to use for everyone."

"We’ll use Power BI to stream temperature, torque, and pressure data to a dashboard so we can monitor extruder performance in real time. As we introduce Azure Machine Learning in other plants where we use more expensive ingredients, we’ll save even more money. From there, we’ll apply it to packaging, transportation, customer behavior—anywhere we can collect data is now an opportunity to improve real-time insight into our business."

"This tool has fundamentally changed the way our marketing team measures performance and ROI. AutoGuru now understands key influences at an extremely granular level. For instance, we have complete visibility of what are the main influencers when customers book either a basic service, logbook service, or a repair. Additionally, whether it’s at a state, region, or suburb level—even the key influencers of a particular acquisition channel—we have the data readily available to us, 24/7. Ultimately, AutoGuru now understands what influences customer behavior—which we’d like to say is every business’s dream. Power BI has been a game-changer to the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns and is helping fuel the growth of the business."

"Everyone used our old programs in their own way. Employees had differing best practices, rhythms, and tools they used to publish their data, which led to data discoverability issues. The very small investment of our time that it took to implement Power BI in Teams has paid off extremely well. We’ve brought alignment to all our portfolios and programs, and we begin all our meetings with a focus on effectiveness through standardized visuals."

"We’re combining components of our TMS into Dynamics 365 to handle invoicing and billing of products that aren’t our core ocean freight product. Once we’ve perfected that, we’ll look at utilising Power BI to add dashboards that will help us make decisions across the business."

"Some of our customers export high-value chilled food products destined for consumer markets. If there are any issues outside our control, which may put these containers at risk, such as issues at ports around the world, it’s important that our customers are able to view this quickly. We have launched a chilled container report, possible with the data lake, Data Bricks, PowerApps, and Power BI. that enables our customers to understand what they have to do to mitigate the operational risk associated with the delivery of the product that they’ve got on the water. The service has reduced the time it takes customers to clearly understand what they need to do by more than 50%."

"Before, staff spent several days each month downloading and assembling data to show sales reps. With Power BI, we’ve removed the need to manually pull data and freed our staff to focus on more interesting aspects of their jobs than data wrangling."

"By using the visualizations in Power BI, we can plow through billions of rows of data to quickly find the handful that are meaningful to our business. We no longer download static data, format it in Excel, and then email it to our global colleagues. We can share reports with our global divisions in a highly secure way, making them available anytime, anywhere, on any device with near real-time live interactive data."

“We’re using Microsoft technologies such as Power BI for business intelligence, and we’re using Azure IoT Hub, Microsoft Power Automate, Office 365, Microsoft Dynamics 365, and SharePoint. These are all standard products that we’re leveraging as part of the solution.”

"Power B is a very reliable management tool, helps me to track any important information in my business to make crucial decisions, it is very dynamic and goes as far as creativity allows you!"

"Power BI allowed me to access accurate and thorough data analysis on my three restaurants in a fast and easy to use manner. The ability to request different reports and dashboards has also been very helpful in keeping across critical business data, especially at these volatile times."
