We performed a comparison between Board and Dundas BI based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two BI (Business Intelligence) Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Where it used to take me three days at the beginning of the year to create the new financial statement, now it is a matter of minutes because all the data is in the system."
"The flexibility and the user-experience are the most valuable features of the solution."
"By using Board we can do a lot of free analysis. We can change the layout of a table and even the end-user can change the layout of a table. And in Board 11.2 you can save the layout. That's very useful for the customer, it's a very good function."
"The aesthetics of it are really nice. That is what attracted us to BOARD: the ease and functionality of it."
"It has a good set of visual elements that you can use and can explain quite well."
"The ability to do write back and visualization, with minimal IT development orientation."
"It is useful for self-analysis regarding company data and helps to find areas where we can improve."
"Now, we have only one version of the truth."
"We use Dundas to report on machine sensor data and create dashboards."
"It was quite easy to use. The UI was basically drag-and-drop based. So, even if you were a beginner at coding software or something else, it would be easy to catch up on Dundas BI."
"The solution has a good drag-and-drop feature for creating dashboards."
"The Layers feature organizes my work and makes it easier, instead of having to use scripting to show and hide when drilling down."
"With Dundas BI, you have a lot of visualization choices, and you can also do customizations by using HTML coding and JavaScript. The ease of development was one of the main factors for going for Dundas BI. The client had different reporting tools, but they wanted something that could accommodate all requirements."
"We have now the ability to create interactive and complex reports without the need for software developers and code."
"The setup was a bit complex."
"We are looking for ways to distinguish zeros versus nulls in BOARD."
"We are looking at ways to improve how we deal with security in BOARD and other similar things. "
"It would be nice to have more connectors for other data sources. BOARD is a great tool to become the single source of the truth. Making it easier to connect data sources for niche software tools will make it easier to keep everything in one place."
"It would be nice to see truly transferable processes from model to model, as well as a method of building repetitive processes."
"We can't delete entities and cubes in Boards because it interrupts our whole data model."
"The one thing that I think we would like to see in terms of improvement of the application is the ability to print. It's fantastic to have all of these graphic visualization of data, but we're not able to very easily just print... From my perspective, if you can have a little "print" button and then you just click it and it would produce what's on the screen, that would be very helpful."
"Sometimes, the data disappears from the product."
"For every object, references are generated, but sometimes, there was a problem with the references overlapping each other. Everything would go off. It would stop working, and then from the admin side, people had to do something to bring it up again."
"Lacks sufficient online support."
"Working with the color palette is difficult in Dundas BI. They can work on different color palettes and make them organized and user-friendly. It would help a long way. Most of the time, the users face challenges in assigning colors to the fields that they have created or to the dimensions and measures in a chart."
"It would be helpful if Dundas made the UI more user-friendly like the leading tools and decreased the learning curve. It should be simpler for a beginner to build dashboards."
"I cannot select a visualization and see what filters are connected to it."
"I would love to see more functions built in inside the application, instead of being scripted. They already did some of that in the new release, version 5, like forecasting, trend lines, etc., and I would love to see more of these kinds of calculations, which we used to do it by scripts before."
