Overall Satisfaction with Dundas BI

We are a software company. We embed the Dundas product into our web-based software products for our customers. It provides the BI/reporting functionality we need to deliver as part of our product set. For our customers, it gives them visibility on what their remote workers are doing in the field and how well they are doing it.
  • Support for multi-tenancy deployments. We have customers who have customers and we can segment data and reports just for them.
  • Easy to embed and we can control the security model within our app - no need to be forced to adopt their model.
  • Flexible and well thought out and open architecture.
  • More code examples and up-to-date code libraries.
  • Webinars that do not just occur at times that suit an EST audience.
These other products tend to do quite a poor job of allowing you to embed them into other products. Either the architecture is not suited to embedding or they make it too expensive to do this. Dundas is designed and priced to do this (embedding) well. We found Dundas comparatively easier to use.
Ideal for a company that has its own software that wants to embed a structured BI capability, not just a simple reporting function. If you are after a simple corporate BI tool you might want to look at using something else.
