Transact Campus enhances data management with Microsoft Power BI integration
Transact Campus, a provider of mobile credential and payment solutions for smart campuses, has announced a significant enhancement to its Transact Insights platform through integration with Microsoft Power BI.
The new Data Connections feature aims to transform how higher education institutions manage, access, and utilise their data. It allows users to seamlessly connect their data to leading business intelligence applications.
In a period where universities and colleges face budget constraints and enrollment pressures, data-driven decision-making is crucial. Higher education finance offices are seeking ways to aggregate campus data across departments to gain a comprehensive view of campus activities and make more informed business decisions.
Key elements of the integration:
Users can connect their data to preferred business intelligence tools with just a few clicks, leveraging data from the payment system in their chosen environment.
Tailor reports and analytics to specific needs, allowing for more personalised and meaningful insights.
Secure, pre-certified connections ensure data protection and efficiency.
Create functional dashboards and reports quickly, significantly reducing the time required to derive actionable insights.
Ian Ashworth, Director of Product Management at Transact, said:
“Our integration with Microsoft Power BI facilitates a level of data interaction that was previously unattainable, enabling university finance offices to make decisions based on comprehensive data-driven information.”
Bill Campman, Director of Data & AI and Director of Academic Medical Centers, US Education at Microsoft, added:
“University analytics teams working with Transact Insights can now quickly and seamlessly automate their connection to Power BI, allowing them to rapidly integrate Transact’s robust datasets with other campus data.”
