As a Gold Partner of Microsoft, Ensior supports a complete range of BI-tools, which makes a suitable solution available for every kind of information needed. With Power BI as the best rated front end dashboard and visualisation tool, management information becomes easily available to everyone in your organisation.

But also standard reports (paginated reports) can easily be distributed via Reporting Services, whether or not using cubes or a tabular model in Analysis Services. For organisation-wide information provision with dashboards, lightning-fast analysis options and ad hoc tools, the Microsoft BI tools integrate seamlessly with Office, Dynamics 365 and Sharepoint.

Microsoft’s Azure platform gives you countless options for data management. With Data Factory, Azure SQL Database and Azure Analysis Services, you can harness the power of the flexible cloud platform. Without administration costs! It’s possible to purchase most BI products as a service, charged per use. But you can also rent your own complete virtual machine with SQL Server on Azure, as an alternative to your current hosting through another party.

Power BI can also be used on-premises with Power BI Report Server, a combination of the SQL Server Reporting Services portal which also displays Power BI reports. Ask for the available options.

SQL Server Reporting Services (a.k.a SSRS) is part of SQL Server. Most probably you have this already. Reporting Services is particularly suited to more complex standard reports involving more formatting, also in addition to Power BI. Reports can be built and formatted in detail using the supplied Report Builder tool. These can be distributed via the authorisation rules or made available on the SSRS portal. With Power BI Report Builder (in the Power BI Premium licence) you can also build and display these paginated reports in the cloud portal PowerBI.com.
