Unlocking key Microsoft Fabric benefits with Acterys

Table of Contents

Microsoft Fabric is increasingly seen as a standard for organizations looking to integrate their AI-driven planning, unlock real-time planning, forecasting and write-back capabilities, and also secure their critical data through advanced governance. So how can Acterys help organizations to leverage Fabric’s enterprise-grade capabilities to create tailored, scalable, AI-ready applications that deliver real impact across business planning needs?

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 jump from Excel to AI. That’s a massive leap, 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.

Integrating planning systems into Microsoft Fabric architecture
That’s why Acterys, with our ability to combine Excel, Power BI and Fabric in one platform and provide real-time updates and write-back to the database, is ideally placed to help businesses unlock the power of Fabric across their operations.

At the heart of our approach is a determination to help customers unlock the real potential of their data. As experts in the planning and write-back field, we supercharge Microsoft Fabric, helping Data and Intelligence teams translate their data into AI-drive insights, instantly.  And the good news is that it really couldn’t be any easier for users as  Acterys already uses the same familiar Microsoft UI that people are already used to, and all Acterys activities are all embedded into the Fabric workload.

The Acterys combination of AI-driven forecasting, smart write-back capabilities, and seamless integration with Microsoft Fabric, Power BI, Excel, Azure AI, and other enterprise tools encourages the creation of limitless, customizable applications or use-cases. Everything’s built with just one UI and one database, with centralized workflows and a core, modular, future-proof platform.  Applications are tailored to unique customer needs anywhere across the business, whether it’s Finance, Sales, HR, Support or any other part of the business.

  • Speed of deployment – Rapid, automated model generation from systems like NetSuite and Dynamics enables quick deployment and results, reducing reliance on IT or external consultants.

  • Building Microsoft Fabric data pipelines for planning – Live data connections and real-time data updates optimize structured data for timely AI-driven decision-making.

  • Ease-of-Use – tools like Acterys Modeller are designed for non-technical users and finance teams. With drag-and-drop functionality, pre-built templates, and ready-made planning models, users can create and manage models without requiring deep SQL or technical expertise.
