One interface and One database – it’s the new way of building software
As a CIO you’re tasked with delivering on digital transformation and driving the transition to AI, while still also safeguarding data integrity, governance and scalability. Not surprisingly, many organizations today are left grappling with disconnected data sources, siloed planning processes, and rigid analytics tools that simply can’t keep pace with the demands of modern decision-making.
Data, IT and Finance teams often find themselves spending more time fixing broken links between systems than actually analyzing and acting on the insights they uncover. These inefficiencies not only slow down performance, but also put the business at risk of making decisions based on incomplete or outdated information. That’s where Acterys and Microsoft Fabric can really help – extending business-led planning and AI-driven analytics and decision-making right across your Microsoft ecosystem. And all without unlocking further shadow IT, SaaS sprawl or costly point solutions.
Transforming how businesses buy and use software
Too many organizations still struggle with disconnected data sources, siloed planning processes, and rigid analytics tools. The result is that they simply can’t keep pace with the demands of modern decision-making. A key barrier for many Data and Intelligence teams is that they can’t just make the jump from Excel to AI. For too many it’s a leap too far – not least because AI only works with structured data – and legacy Excel data, where much of an organization’s operational data is stored, is unstructured.
However, Acterys – thanks to our strategic alignment with the Microsoft stack – complements the Fabric and Power BI architecture – providing real-time updates and write-back to the database. And because our Acterys Data Intelligence platform optimizes structured data for AI-driven decision-making, customers can instantly leverage AI models—both custom-built and out-of-the-box – that are fully integrated into the Microsoft Fabric and Power BI ecosystem. The result: smarter forecasts, predictive analytics, and planning workflows that evolve with your business. This means that organizations can embed AI models into their business processes – whether that’s forecasting revenue, optimizing supply chains, or simply supporting smarter financial decisions.
Creating scalable applications with just one interface and one database
At the heart of our approach is a determination to help customers unlock the real potential of their data. Your users get to leverage Microsoft Excel, Power BI and Fabric – the tools they already know – minimizing the training time necessary and maximizing adoption.
And it couldn’t be any easier for users. Acterys enables end-to-end planning, reporting and write-back directly in the Microsoft tools that your finance and business users already use. No separate front-end is required as we use the same UI that people are already used.
Acterys also offers an end-to-end platform that provides a single solution for planning, forecasting, consolidation and analytics – effectively eliminating fragmented tools and siloed processes. The Acterys engine handles technical complexity in the background, leaving users free to focus on insight and strategy. Critically, seamless connection to a range of data sources and live, synchronized data across systems means no more reconciliation or second-guessing the numbers.
Our Acterys Data Intelligence platform lets organizations move on from the old ways of buying and building software. Backed by the power of Microsoft Fabric and Power BI, we’re empowering teams to create tailored, scalable applications that not only integrate seamlessly with existing enterprise systems, but also ensure real-time access to accurate data for planning and analytics. A scalable architecture handles growing data and complexity as your organization evolves, meaning you get to extend your core processes across the business without the complexity, cost, and technical challenges often associated with other platforms.
