Case Study: Education First achieves faster, self-service reporting with MAQ Software and Power BI

Modernize Reporting with Power BI A Cost-Effective, Scalable Solution

Education First partnered with MAQ Software to modernize its reporting by replacing an on-premises QlikView system. The key challenges included migrating to a scalable platform with self-service capabilities, reducing operational and data engineering costs, and ensuring high-level security and performance for their existing reports.

MAQ Software implemented a solution by migrating the client's reports to a cloud-based Power BI platform. This provided a low-code, centralized architecture that integrated numerous data sources and enabled self-service analytics. The result was a successful migration that delivered faster report performance, quicker maintenance, and high stakeholder satisfaction, significantly increasing operational efficiency and reducing costs.
