Description


The information store owner need at a glance in a single dashboard to make more quick and informed decisions regarding business, could be gathered separately by merging different reports from the nopCommerce Admin panel. But it was more time consuming and manual. So to resolve this we integrate Microsoft Power BI with that nopCommerce store.

Power BI is a business analytics solution that can connect the data from hundreds of sources and turn it into meaningful reports. Since nopCommerce and Power BI both use Microsoft technologies, the handshaking between these two platforms is pretty good and easy to achieve.
