Case Study: Leading Restaurant Chain achieves real-time, company-wide analytics adoption with DatAvail and Microsoft Power BI

Restaurant Chain Replaces Ineffective Analytics Tool with Power BI

Leading Restaurant Chain was struggling with its BI platform—Infor Birst—because of a steep learning curve, low adoption, lack of a single source of truth, long report turnaround times, and heavy reliance on data analysts. Seeking self-service, real-time analytics across finance, marketing, operations and multiple store locations, the customer engaged DatAvail to find a better solution.

DatAvail recommended and implemented an Azure cloud migration centered on Microsoft Power BI, completing the project end-to-end and providing on-site specialty report training. The DatAvail-led rollout unified the enterprise on an Azure toolset (Power BI, SQL Server, Excel, Visual Studio), enabled self-service analytics, and significantly improved user adoption compared with the legacy tool.
