    A customer portal that replaced three disconnected tools

    The Challenge

    ACT XM’s team was managing client data across three separate platforms, none of which talked to each other. Every report took hours. Every client update meant manual data entry in three places.

    The Solution

    Extranet Systems built a unified web application that consolidated all three platforms into a single, secure, real-time portal, integrated directly with their existing data infrastructure.

    The Outcome

    Processing time dropped by 3× immediately. The team now works from a single source of truth, with real-time data, automated reporting, and full audit trails built in.

    "We went from three disconnected tools to one unified system in 12 weeks. The team hasn't looked back, and neither have we."

    Intelligence Behind Your BI

    The Engine That Powers Your Analytics

    Your reporting tools are only as powerful as the analytical layer beneath them. SSAS builds the multidimensional and tabular data models that make large-scale analysis fast, flexible, and genuinely useful.

    Fast at Any Scale

    SSAS sits between your raw data and your reporting tools, building multidimensional and tabular models that make complex queries fast and powerful.

    Seamlessly Connected

    SSAS integrates directly with Power BI, SSRS, and Azure, delivering a faster, more powerful analytical layer across your entire BI environment.

    Questions

    Everything you need to know about building custom software with us

    Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) is an analytical processing and data mining engine that builds multidimensional and tabular data models from your existing data. It sits between your raw data sources and your reporting tools, making complex queries fast and enabling deep analytical capabilities across large datasets.

    SSRS is a reporting tool used to create and deliver formatted reports. SSAS is an analytical engine that builds the data models those reports query. They are complementary: SSAS provides the fast, structured analytical layer, and SSRS surfaces that data as reports for users.

    Multidimensional models use a cube-based structure suited to complex, hierarchical analysis. Tabular models use a more modern, column-based structure that is faster to build and integrates more easily with Power BI. We advise on the right approach based on your specific data environment and analytical needs.

    Yes. Tabular models built in SSAS integrate directly with Power BI, providing a fast, optimised analytical layer that improves the performance of Power BI reports across large datasets. This is a common and powerful combination for enterprise BI environments.

    Yes. Azure Analysis Services provides a fully managed cloud-hosted version of SSAS, offering scalability, cost-effectiveness, and seamless integration with other Azure services. We can help you deploy on-premises, in the cloud, or in a hybrid configuration depending on your requirements.

    Yes. We provide continuous performance tuning, model updates, and support to keep your SSAS environment running efficiently as your data volumes and analytical requirements evolve over time.
