–(PR.com)– Limelight
Software,
a
leading
provider
of
modern
FP&A
solutions,
announced
its
new
integration
with
Microsoft
Power
BI,
empowering
finance
teams
with
real-time
insights,
streamlined
planning,
and
cutting-edge
analytics.
The
integration
marks
a
significant
leap
forward
for
finance
and
accounting
teams
by
combining
Limelight’s
powerful
planning,
budgeting,
and
forecasting
capabilities
with
Power
BI’s
robust
data
visualization
and
reporting
platform.
Together,
they
enable
organizations
to
achieve
a
fully
connected,
agile,
and
data-driven
finance
function.
“Finance
teams
today
demand
more
than
static
reports
—
they
need
real-time
insights,
smarter
planning,
and
a
modern
tech
stack,”
said
Jade
Cole,
CTO
of
Limelight.
“By
integrating
Limelight
with
Power
BI,
we’re
giving
finance
leaders
the
ability
to
visualize
their
planning
data
in
new
ways,
merge
financial
and
operational
metrics,
and
distribute
insights
across
the
organization
with
ease.”
Combining
Planning
Intelligence
with
Dynamic
Analytics
While
Power
BI
is
one
of
the
world’s
most
popular
platforms
for
operational
analytics,
it
does
not
natively
support
financial
planning,
budgeting,
or
forecasting
workflows.
Power
BI
alone
cannot
manage
end-to-end
FP&A
processes.
Limelight
fills
this
gap,
offering
finance-owned,
real-time
financial
modeling,
driver-based
forecasting,
and
prebuilt
FP&A
templates—all
now
seamlessly
connected
to
Power
BI’s
visualization
power.
This
integration
delivers
key
benefits
designed
to
transform
how
finance
teams
manage
data
and
insights.
With
real-time
data
flows,
users
can
seamlessly
pull
live
budgets,
forecasts,
and
actuals
from
Limelight
directly
into
Power
BI
—
eliminating
the
need
for
manual
exports.
The
integration
also
enables
a
unified
business
view,
allowing
finance
teams
to
combine
Limelight’s
FP&A
data
with
CRM,
ERP,
and
other
operational
datasets
for
a
holistic
view
of
business
performance.
Users
can
easily
create
executive
dashboards,
high-impact
board
reports,
KPI
monitors,
and
cash
flow
projections
that
deliver
deeper
insights
with
less
effort.
What
It
Means
for
Finance
Teams
The
integration
empowers
users
to
share
insights
beyond
finance,
using
customizable
dashboards
that
deliver
clear,
actionable
information
to
stakeholders
across
the
business.
In
addition,
the
combined
solution
helps
strengthen
cross-departmental
collaboration,
breaking
down
silos
and
aligning
teams
around
unified,
data-driven
strategies.
“We
built
Limelight
to
simplify
complex
FP&A
processes,”
added
Cole.
“With
Power
BI,
we’re
making
it
even
easier
for
finance
teams
to
become
strategic
advisors
to
their
organizations.”
