Overall Satisfaction with Dundas BI

It is used to create BI reports for our customer. We custom create the templates for all our customers as the software allows for multi-tenancy. This means when anyone logs in it will be tailored to their needs. This also means we can connect to multiple databases and further tailor to our customers' needs.
  • Easy to publish from a working in progress /demo to the live version
  • Easy to pick up and do someting
  • Working with cubes makes manipulating data quite easy
  • Report pagination to be improved... It's just very clunky and hard to figure out
  • It needs to make hierarchies more straightforward. they don't work as expected and a separate cube just to set up the structure of the hierarchy
  • Make multiple connections possible with multitenancy
Much better for multi-tenancy. Power bi just doesn't have many features and is just lackluster. Telerik doesn't look as good although slightly more powerful with data manipulation. Too many BI reporting tools out there don't offer multi-tenancy and I have no idea why. It is pretty important. Dundas is just the best if multitenancy is needed
If you have the need for multi-tenancy and the need to make very flexible reports then this is good. if you are only using it for personal BI reporting, then it is a bit overkill. I also have to mention that although it is easy to pick up, it has quite a steep learning curve to master
