Analytics are a cornerstone for businesses in today\u2019s rapidly evolving digital economy. They help companies make better decisions, improve operational efficiency, and, ultimately, achieve a competitive edge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Microsoft Fabric<\/a> is a comprehensive analytics solution designed to empower organizations to harness the full potential of their data. It\u2019s designed to streamline the process of data management, helping companies understand, reason over, learn from, and act on their data seamlessly and efficiently while making data more accessible to various roles across the business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To better understand the financial impact that Fabric is having on companies today, Microsoft commissioned Forrester Consulting to conduct a Total Economic Impact\u2122 (TEI) study<\/a> which examines the potential return on investment (ROI) enterprises may realize by deploying Fabric. The purpose of the 2024 study is to provide readers with a framework to evaluate the potential financial impact of Fabric on their organizations. Below is a summary of what we\u2019ve learned.<\/p>\n\n\n Bring your data into the era of AI<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t In today\u2019s data-driven business landscape, executives are constantly seeking solutions that not only streamline operations but also deliver substantial financial returns. The Total Economic Impact\u2122 (TEI) study of Microsoft Fabric provides a deep analysis of the benefits and costs associated with deploying Fabric.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Based on interviews with companies currently using Fabric, Forrester constructed a composite company and an ROI analysis that illustrates the areas financially affected. The composite organization is representative of the interviewees, and it is used to present the aggregate financial analysis. The composite organization has the following characteristics:<\/p>\n\n\n\n See the study<\/a> for additional assumptions specific to each impacted area of the business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The TEI report reveals a considerable ROI of 379% for the composite organization that deployed Fabric. This figure is a testament to the significant cost savings and business benefits enabled by the solution. The net present value (NPV) of $9.79 million underscores the substantial financial gains that can be realized over time, making a strong case for the investment in Fabric from a fiscal standpoint.<\/p>\n\n\n One of the standout benefits highlighted in the study is an increase in data engineering productivity of 25%. This gain stems from a 90% reduction in the time data engineers spend searching, integrating, and debugging, and translates to savings of $1.8 million for the composite organization. Furthermore, business analyst access and output are improved by 20%, leading to an additional $4.8 million in savings. These productivity enhancements not only represent direct financial benefits but also indicate a more efficient and effective approach to data management and analysis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The ability to leverage better insights from high-quality data leads to enhanced business results, with increases profits to the tune of $3.6 million. This point is particularly relevant for C-suite executives, as it emphasizes the impact of data-driven decision-making on the bottom line. The study\u2019s findings suggest that with Fabric, businesses can provide faster and better answers to key questions, resulting in better-informed strategic decisions and improved financial performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\nMicrosoft Fabric<\/h2>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t
