HTML version: https://supaboard.ai/integrations/ms-sql-server

ERP, finance and line-of-business data in most enterprises that run on Microsoft.

## What teams ask of Microsoft SQL Server

- "What is AR ageing by customer and by business unit right now?"
- "Which cost centres are running over budget, and by how much?"
- "How does this period compare to the same period last year, on the finance team's own definition?"
- "Which transactions were posted outside the normal window?"

## What it gets joined with

- Salesforce — booked revenue against the pipeline that claimed it.
- Workday HCM — cost centre spend against headcount.

## How the connection works

Microsoft SQL Server is one of the 123 sources you can connect yourself, out of a catalogue of 700+. Setting up a first analysis takes about 5 minutes.

SQL Server is a native connector. On the Enterprise plan the whole thing can run inside your own VPC, which is usually the deciding question when the data is financial.

- Read-only: the query layer rejects DDL and DML before a statement reaches your source.
- Credentials encrypted at rest, scoped per workspace, never logged.
- On-premise deployment with no data egress on Enterprise: https://supaboard.ai/enterprise
- From $83 per user/month billed annually: https://supaboard.ai/pricing
