DETAILED COMPARISON
SWITCHING IS EASY
Your existing reports and calculations don't get thrown away — they get enhanced. IntelliFabric wraps around your current data layer and adds the pre-built industry KPIs on top.
01
Audit your current state
We map your existing reports, data sources, and KPIs — understanding what you have and what you're missing.
02
Connect your sources
Existing SQL Server, Excel, or ERP connections migrate directly. Pre-built connectors handle the rest.
03
Import your business logic
Your current Power BI measures, Tableau calculations, or Excel formulas translate into the IntelliFabric semantic model.
04
Deliver with enhancement
You get everything you had — plus the industry KPIs and automated refresh you didn't.
