SQL Power BI Conversion Services

Reduce ongoing maintenance costs without losing functionality by converting your BI platform to low-cost Open Source

 

CIOs and Directors around the world are looking for ways to reduce the ongoing costs of maintaining their BI systems. More and more, organizations are accomplishing this by switching to Open Source BI Tools when implementing new systems.

 

But what if you have already invested time and money into proprietary Business Intelligence tools?

Does it make sense to go through the process of converting to Open Source BI? SQL Power will prove to you that it does - and we can handle all aspects of the conversion process for you.

Switching to the SQL Power Wabit BI Tool reduces ongoing costs, without giving up any functionality. It is a full-featured, all-in-1 BI Tool that gives you everything you need - including standard reports, dashboards, ad-hoc queries, OLAP analysis and more.

 

The SQL Power BI Conversion Process

Free Demonstration

We will prove to you that the SQL Power Wabit BI tool can meet your needs with a free demonstration, and proof of concept consisting of sample reports. This is the first step in our conversion process and is free with no obligation on your part to continue.

Gather Conversion Requirements

We examine your existing reports and determine the best way to gather your requirements. Typically we require screenshots of all reports to be converted, along with the code used to generate the report and the source database schema with some sample data. This can also be a great opportunity to do some "housekeeping" and identify reports that are no longer required.

Conversion

Using the Conversion Requirements, SQL Power creates your new BI system offsite. A Subject Matter Expert from your organization should be made available during this stage for any questions we may have.

Training

In person or via web conferencing, we ensure that your technical staff learns everything they need to know to install and maintain your new SQL Power Wabit BI reporting system. We also deliver end-user training so that your team can take full advantage of all the features SQL Power Wabit has to offer, including creating reports, charts, dashboards, OLAP cubes, and ad-hoc queries.

 

Savings Estimates

SQL Power BI Conversion provides your organization with the best possible ROI, delivering significant cost savings in year 1 that will continue year after year. Conversion to SQL Power Wabit will not only generate significant savings in the future, but the upfront costs of conversion are often equal to (or even below) your previous yearly maintenance costs. The chart above illustrates the savings that SQL Power BI Conversion service can offer you over your current proprietary solution in various scenarios.
