Case Study: Viracon achieves seamless business continuity and self-service analytics with Pyramid Analytics

Viracon Achieves Business Continuity, Increases Use of Data and Insights

Viracon, a leading single-source architectural glass fabricator and part of Apogee Enterprises, faced a looming analytics gap when Microsoft sunset ProClarity. Their on-prem multidimensional cubes and heavy Excel use made Power BI costly and unsuitable (it would force tabular conversions and extra refreshes), so they needed a platform that could directly query their cubes and provide easy, governed self-service for users.

Pyramid Analytics delivered a unified decision-intelligence platform that accessed Viracon’s multidimensional cubes without data movement, offered AI-guided no-code self-service, and enabled automated reporting and dashboards. Pyramid trained departmental super-users, allowed a seamless transition, reduced report requests to IT, and helped the company broaden data use—resulting in faster, smarter decision-making and sustained business continuity.
