Does anyone connect to Power BI for reporting?

Kimberly Wolfe

Hi there- 

We are considering getting data out of Sugar to Power BI to perform more extensive reporting. We have exhausted our efforts to use the existing reporting tools and need to use an alternate tool to get the reports/dashboards we need. 

If you use Power BI, do you use a third-party connector to get the data to Power BI?

Do you export to a cloud based data warehouse, then connect Power BI to it? 

Would appreciate any suggestions and insights!

    Hi Kimberly – we have a number of customers that use PowerBI to interrogate their Sugar instance data.  At Sugar, we sell a particular tool called “sTransit for DataMarts” which is used to extract data from your SugarCloud instance and pre-formats it into a PowerBI ready datamart.  There are some costs associated with purchasing the tool and you will need an environment to host the datamart outside of SugarCloud.  For more details, I’d suggest you connect with your Customer Success Manager or reach out directly to Deb Drakeford ddrakeford@sugarcrm.com
