Why Migrate to Power BI
The top reasons our clients have given for migrating to Power BI
Self-Service BI
Empower users to design and deploy their own reports.
​
Cultivate Data-Driven Culture that encourages actionable knowledge sharing
Fabric
With Fabric, Power BI, Synapse, and Data Factory are unified on a single SaaS platform.
Data teams can collaborate in a single workspace, on the same copy of data, with centralized administration, governance, and compliance tools
Suite of low-code tools that empowers organisations to streamline processes and automate tasks.
​
Integration with Power BI enables businesses to automatically drive actions based upon insights detected in their data
Power Platform
Lower Costs
Power BI licensing is significantly cheaper than competitors.
​
Flexible license packages allow adaptation to your business needs.
Reduce Complexity
Most enterprises use an average of 3+ different BI platforms.
​
This leads to report overload, duplication, errors, and lack of control.
​
Rationalising BI delivery to a single platform (Microsoft) addresses these issues.
Multilingual Functionality
Bring your data into the era of AI
Reshape how everyone accesses, manages, and acts on data with a single, AI-powered platform
​
Adopt a data platform that’s infused with AI at every layer to help you get more done, faster
Client Success Story
Customer Insight & Marketing
The client aimed to migrate an existing Qlik Sense dashboard to Power BI as part of a broader move to Azure Cloud Services.
​
Key Qlik Sense functionalities needed replication in Power BI, and the data model had to be recreated using Power BI's Query Editor due to differences in data handling.
​
This migration aligned the dashboard with the company's Azure strategy and allowed them to leverage the Microsoft Power Platform for improved data quality and process efficiency.
​
The original Qlik Sense dashboard tracked key marketing KPIs, enabling detailed analysis of campaign performance against predictions and providing insights into individual campaigns.
Challenge
The principal challenges were to replicate visualisations and analytics built using native Qlik Sense functionality, and to recreate the Qlik data model in Power Query.
These included:
• Loading data from multiple data sources in one data model so business users
could access and do analysis on data in one place
​
• Maintaining the Self-Service functionality that Peraison had built into the Qlik Sense report
​
• Restricting user’s access to only data from their business unit
​
• Distributing the report to over 100 business users across different business units
​
• Alternate dimensions and measures (user ability to configure dimensions and measures in a chart)
​
• Comparing results across different time periods
​
• The ability to view the data in different currencies
Solution
Peraison created a new report in Power BI tracking marketing spend and ROI against internal targets.
​
A new data model was designed to align with Power BI’s functionality and best practices.
Using the new data model Peraison were able to replicate the dimension switching functionality of Qlik Sense.
​
A series of nested measures were created that allowed the business users to view the data by their chosen currency as well as other business defined metrics based on slicer selection in data islands.
​
Another series of nested measures allowed the user to select which measure was reflected in charts based on filter selections in data islands. Rules were built into the report to restrict data access by username so that the business could distribute the report to over 100 users with the correct security access applied.
Result
Up to 100 users now have access to Marketing KPIs so they can report on these figures and take decisions faster.
This has significantly improved KPI tracking and report delivery time.
