In many SMEs, business-critical data is spread across different systems, departments and repositories, with no central database. A typical example is the use of Excel as the main analysis tool – often involving manual and time-consuming spreadsheet reporting, frequently based on data collated from different sources such as an ERP system (Abacus, Microsoft Dynamics, Sage, Bexio, SAP, etc.) and/or industry-specific software. This method costs time, is prone to error and complicates objective decision-making. Many teams therefore end up relying not on current key figures but rather on experience or gut feeling. This is where the Power BI starter package for SMEs comes in: using modern software, you can process your data automatically and at regular intervals, and transform it into engaging visual dashboards and reports, which are both useful and easy for your company’s various stakeholders to access.
Do you waste time collating data from Excel lists and systems, or do you make decisions without accessing a central database? Are you looking for a simple way to introduce business intelligence into your company? The Power BI starter package is the ideal gateway.
The decision as to which package to choose depends on your use case. You will receive an in-depth evaluation of how your company can make most effective use of Power BI, including a proposal regarding technical implementation, a possible data model and a recommendation for the service package that is right for you.
Even if you have not previously used Power BI or Azure, we can offer support with set-up and procurement of the necessary licences to help you get started right away.
Optional: All packages can be operated by Swisscom fully or with shared responsibility, as required, from CHF 700/month (S), CHF 1,400/month (M) or CHF 2,800/month (L).
