Tier 1: From Tableau to Power BI

Accelerating analytics transformation.

A Tier 1 Retailer has been leveraging Tableau as its primary data visualisation platform, with over 6,000 workbooks developed and integrated with more than 3,000 data sources across the organisation.

More recently, the Retailer selected Microsoft as its strategic partner for analytics, making the consolidation of all reporting into Power BI a natural progression, with the support of Celfocus throughout the process.

The Challenge

  • Migrate a high volume of workbooks in a short period of time.
  • Building a compelling business case to justify transitioning to new reporting tools, which would be challenging to achieve given the high costs associated with a fully manual migration approach.
