MADISON, Wis., July 17, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- CUNA Mutual AdvantEdge Analytics announced today it has launched its new data platform for the credit union industry, which leverages Microsoft's technology. This collaboration between Microsoft and AdvantEdge Analytics, announced in March, debuts one of the first industry-specific Common Data Model extensions designed for credit unions. The announcement is in conjunction with Microsoft Inspire 2018.

The AdvantEdge Analytics™ Data Platform helps credit unions digitally transform by expanding their ability to connect and scale to any data system or third-party technology, ultimately improving the member experience. AdvantEdge Analytics' customers, Idaho Central Credit Union, Michigan Educational Credit Union and Randolph-Brooks Federal Credit Union (RBFCU) are currently in private preview with the new platform and will begin full implementation shortly.

The newly launched data platform delivers deeper insights into a credit union's business data through one standardized way of organizing their data assets. The AdvantEdge Analytics Data Platform seamlessly integrates into the Microsoft digital toolset, which will allow insights to be gleaned out of Microsoft Power BI and other tools like Microsoft Dynamics 365, Microsoft Power Apps and Microsoft Flow in the future.

"As data continues to transform entire industries, we are pleased to see AdvantEdge Analytics use this standard to help our customers transform big data into real insights."
