Data Analytics
Power BI Consultants’ Solutions for Businesses.
A cloud-based software developer aimed at optimizing the learning experience for K-12 students needed better insight into its app-based Learning Management System (LMS). Providing support for classroom management, content management, attendance systems, grade books, classroom interactions, parent communication, active learning, and more through its LMS, the company sought an advanced analytics system that would help improve functionality and better understand customer behavior.
Because they are in the education sector, the company had already established an efficient and widely used LMS that was being used by nearly 11,000 schools and two million users in North America. Used by students, teachers, parents, and administrators, the app was used to manage, assess, and report on the student learning arc. It also offered services like management systems, analytics, social networking, and data aggregation for K-12 education.
Resource deficits limited insight
To uncover any system efficiencies and loopholes and provide deeper insight into user behavior, the company needed an advanced analytics platform that would work in lockstep with its LMS to improve and support the user experience. The company didn’t have the in-house resources and expertise to build its own analytics and visualization layer on top of the LMS application, and they felt the best investment would be to go with a third-party BI solution.
After consulting with the Pegasus One data visualization team, the company opted to go with Microsoft Power BI Embedded as their advanced analytics solution.
