We performed a comparison between Dundas BI and Tableau based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Visualization solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."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."
"We use Dundas to report on machine sensor data and create dashboards."
"The Layers feature organizes my work and makes it easier, instead of having to use scripting to show and hide when drilling down."
"We have now the ability to create interactive and complex reports without the need for software developers and code."
"The solution has a good drag-and-drop feature for creating dashboards."
"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."
"Technical support has been responsive."
"Easy for beginners to use"
"The ability of filtering and segmentation of the data makes it very flexible compared to other tools."
"Partner support is very good."
"Tableau is easy to use."
"Tableau is easy to use and it has great predictive features."
"The most valuable features are data discovery and fine visualizations."
"It has made the reporting stage simple and enabled us to focus mainly on the ETL part"
"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."
"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."
"Lacks sufficient online support."
"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."
"The process of embedding the dashboards on external portals and websites could be improved."
"The charts need to be improved. The drawings and the visualization need to be more accurate."
"The integration with other program languages, like Python, needs to be better."
"People are migrating to Microsoft BI due to the speed, which is quite slow to load, and the lack of visualization options."
"It needs more ETL capabilities, to be able to address the end-to-end BI need."
"Its price is a concern. It is more expensive than Power BI. The other thing that I never liked about Tableau is its ability to handle large sets of data. To present the data in the dashboards, we have to stage it up exactly like it is going to come into the dashboard. We use another tool called Alteryx that does that for us. So, we manipulate the data, get it staged, and then push it into Tableau. Tableau is terrible at handling large data sets, and we knew right away that we couldn't use Tableau to do data manipulation."
"The data processing in Tableau is pathetic compared to Qlik."
"Tableau support could be improved."
