Case Study: Arada (UAE real estate developer) achieves faster, data-driven decisions and cost savings with Microsoft Power BI

Arada - Customer Case Study

Arada, a UAE real estate developer behind projects like Armani Beach Residences and Aljada, needed to unify disparate departments and third‑party systems onto a single platform to improve collaboration, remote work and customer service. Partnering with Microsoft (including Microsoft Power BI alongside Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations, Azure and Microsoft 365 E5), Arada set out to make customer and internal data accessible across the organization.

Using Microsoft Power BI and the broader Microsoft stack, Arada consolidated front‑ and back‑office processes, enabled real‑time analytics and secure identity and governance, and shifted 90% of workloads to Azure. The deployment cut business cycle times from days to hours, delivered instant reporting that saved hundreds of man‑hours, reduced operational expenses by about 15–20% and administrative expenses by 20–25%, cut communication costs by over 50%, and largely eliminated on‑premises infrastructure maintenance.
