Legacy BI tools, once the industry standard, are now struggling to keep pace with the evolving needs of modern businesses. The need to modernize these legacy reports has become imperative to unlock the full potential of data-driven decision-making and Generative AI assisted analytics.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s dive into what makes Looker a compelling BI tool and explore modernization challenges when migrating legacy BI from tools like Cognos and Tableau to Looker.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"Why-Looker-for-Modern-BI\">Why Looker for Modern BI<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cloud.google.com\/looker?hl=en\">Looker<\/a>, a powerful data platform offered by Google Cloud, has emerged as a leading choice to modernize BI, especially for companies already using Google BigQuery.<\/p>\n<h3>Key Features of Looker for Modern Analytics<\/h3>\n<p>Looker offers a unique blend of features that make it an ideal solution for businesses seeking to accelerate time-to-value from their data.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Intuitive User Interface: Looker&#8217;s user-friendly interface empowers business users to explore data independently, reducing reliance on technical teams.<\/li>\n<li>Semantic Layer: This powerful abstraction layer provides a unified view of data across disparate sources, simplifying data exploration and analysis.<\/li>\n<li>Advanced Analytics: Looker enables advanced analytics techniques like machine learning and predictive modeling, allowing organizations to uncover deeper insights.<\/li>\n<li>Customization and Flexibility: Looker can be tailored to meet the specific needs of any organization, with customizable dashboards, reports, and alerts.<\/li>\n<li>Collaboration and Sharing: Seamless collaboration and sharing of insights across teams foster a data-driven culture.<\/li>\n<li>AI-Powered Analytics: Gemini in Looker provides AI assisted analytical workflows for more efficient self-service BI.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Why BigQuery Customers Modernize BI Reports in Looker<\/h3>\n<p>Specifically for<a href=\"https:\/\/cloud.google.com\/bigquery\/\"> Google BigQuery<\/a> customers that are using other BI tools, there are many key drivers for modernizing those reports in Looker.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>LookML provides a re-usable data model that is highly efficient within the BigQuery \/ GCP ecosystem.<\/li>\n<li>Looker and BigQuery deliver faster query performance \u2013 up to 10x improved speeds.<\/li>\n<li>Looker enables easy integration with BigQuery data sources.<\/li>\n<li>Looker excels at complex data modeling, customization of reports, and real-time insights into data.<\/li>\n<li>Looker works well with large volumes of data from multiple sources.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Now that we\u2019ve explored why Looker is worth considering for your modern BI needs, let\u2019s take a look at migration challenges.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"BI-Migration-Challenges\">BI Migration Challenges<\/h2>\n<p>Migrating from legacy BI tools to Looker can be a complex process and can present challenges, including issues related to data migration, report and dashboard reconstruction, user adoption, and integration with existing systems.<\/p>\n<h3>Common Challenges When Migrating to Looker<\/h3>\n<p>Looker offers unique features that require proven solutions and workarounds to achieve similar or better results when migrating from legacy BI tools.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Data Model Differences: Each BI platform has different data modelling approaches, leading to discrepancies in data representation and calculations.<\/li>\n<li>Excel Migration: Looker does not have direct Excel import, so data needs to be extracted and converted.<\/li>\n<li>User Training Needs: Users familiar with their existing BI tools may have difficulty adapting to Looker&#8217;s interface, navigation, and functionalities.<\/li>\n<li>Data Blending in Looker: Data Blending, a widely used method for combining multiple sources, is not a feature in Looker and requires alternative methods for achieving similar outcomes.<\/li>\n<li>Visualization Variances: Every BI tool offers its unique set of visualizations or formatting options, impacting the layout and design of dashboards.<\/li>\n<li>Performance Optimization: Large data sets and complex queries can have an impact on performance without proper query optimization.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Tableau Migration to Looker Success Story<\/h3>\n<p>With extensive <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bitwiseglobal.com\/en-us\/solutions\/bi-modernization\/\">BI Modernization<\/a> experience, Bitwise understands the differences between legacy tools and modern tools like Looker. We\u2019ve been through the migration process and have developed solutions to address the unique challenges of migrating to Looker with proven success in keeping BI migrations on track and within budget.<\/p>\n<p>For instance, a leading American ticketing company faced the challenge of maintaining and scaling its existing Tableau reports.
