Case Study: Enlighten Designs achieves affordable, easy business intelligence with Microsoft Corporation Power BI

Enlighten Designs - Customer Case Study

Enlighten Designs, a New Zealand application developer and systems integrator, wanted to make business intelligence easier, more affordable, and more accessible for its customers, including schools and small businesses. The company needed a way to help users analyze data from multiple sources, get answers without waiting on IT, and avoid the cost and complexity of on-premises infrastructure, using Microsoft Power BI and Microsoft Excel.

Microsoft Corporation helped Enlighten Designs implement Power BI proof-of-concept projects, delivering cloud-based reporting, interactive visualizations, and seamless integration with familiar Office tools. The solution improved data discovery and collaboration, boosted user adoption, and enabled faster, lower-cost BI deployment; one education customer, Wintec, gained deeper insight into student behavior and could identify at-risk students earlier, while schools could potentially save millions in funding by improving retention.
