Common questions

Do we need a data platform, or is Power BI enough?
Sometimes Power BI on its own is the right answer, and we will tell you if it is. A platform makes sense when you have several sources, growing volumes, or numbers that need to match across reports.
Is Databricks too big for a business our size?
Not always. You pay for what you use, and it can start small. If something simpler fits your needs, we will recommend that instead.
Can you connect to our existing systems?
Usually, yes. Accounting, CRM and ERP systems, databases and spreadsheets can all be connected. If a system has an export or an API, we can normally bring its data in.
Who owns the data and the code?
You do. We build in your own cloud account, and you keep everything when the project ends. [CONFIRM: client owns all code and documentation]
