The Challenge
Trint needed to migrate from their existing BI tools and empower business users to access insights independently. Their challenges included:
- Limited self-service capabilities for non-technical users
- Time-consuming manual data modeling and dashboard maintenance
- Bottlenecks with data requests falling to a single analytics engineer
- Difficulty keeping up with the rapid pace of product development
Our Bold Approach
We partnered with Omni to deliver a transformative solution that would liberate Trint's teams from technical barriers and create freedom through simplicity.
Working closely with Trint's Senior Analytics Engineer, Anya Osen Barnett, we:
- Migrated their data models and operational content within 30 days
- Established a streamlined workflow for accessing and analyzing data
- Created intuitive dashboards that democratized data access
- Provided team-specific training tailored to each department's needs
Key Elements of Trint's Data Stack
- ETL: Fivetran
- Data Warehouse: Snowflake
- Transformation: dbt
- Business Intelligence: omni
Striking Results
Within just the first month, we:
- Migrated all existing reports to the new stack to ensure no disruption to business operations
- Integrated with their data pipelines that eliminated hours of manual work
- Trained the Trint team (90) on how to use and gain value from Omni
- Established a collaborative partnership based on shared values and goals
"Having support through the migration from Omni and Hawkfry Group was a real lifesaver for us."
— Anya Osen Barnett, Senior Analytics Engineer
Migration: Establishing a true partnership in less than a month
The migration process became an opportunity for Trint to streamline their data assets. With our guidance, they:
- Performed a data "spring cleaning," keeping only the most valuable models and dashboards
- Prioritized high-impact content for immediate migration
- Expanded BI access to team members who previously couldn't use their tools
- Created a foundation for sustainable data practices
How Omni Unlocked Value Across Trint
Revenue Operations
The Revenue Operations team gained the ability to work with complex pricing data without advanced SQL knowledge. Using Omni's intuitive interface and Excel-like calculations, they could independently join data and create insights.
"We tried to make self-service possible, but it didn't really work with our previous BI tool. In order to make any changes to our data model, you'd have to be quite well-versed in SQL. That's fine for a data analyst, but not for other team members."
— Anya Osen Barnett, Senior Analytics Engineer
Product Development
Product teams were empowered to work directly with JSON data from Mixpanel without submitting tickets to Data Engineering. This eliminated waiting periods and accelerated product insights.
Data Engineering
The Data Engineering team experienced significant workflow improvements:
- Automatic schema refreshes when dbt models change
- Elimination of redundant documentation work
- Reduced maintenance overhead
- More time for strategic initiatives
"A big problem we had with our previous tool was people creating metrics that had the same name but different definitions. With Omni, we can label content as 'verified,' so when someone is looking for a metric, it's easy to find the correct number. Now, everyone is singing off the same song sheet."
— Anya Osen Barnett, Senior Analytics Engineer
