It's useful for reporting on IoT KPIs, but it isn't as robust or user-friendly as some competing solutions
I was a little disappointed in Dundas. I found other tools like Tableau and Power BI to be more powerful. I intended to use Dundus as an organizational BI tool, but I think there's a significant learning curve with Dundas versus the others. The user experience and UI could also improve. It should be simpler for end users who don't have much technical knowledge. I have an IT background, but I think it might be challenging for anyone who is unfamiliar with databases.

Better than any of the competition for ease-of-use but it is slow and not good with big data
Within the last month, Software AG sent us a new version of MashZone. Some of the features in MashZone have been modified and there are two new functionalities that are quite interesting to us. But we are still in the testing stage so there is not much to say about the new version yet and if they have resolved some things that are currently issues for us. The interface is good. It is very simple. It may not have many functions, but it is enough for process analysis. By comparison, Qlik and Tableau have many, many more functions. Statistical analysis is impossible in MashZone, but for process analysis, it is enough. MashZone is the best for process analysis. It is a very solid system. It is not as good for BI (Business Intelligence) because when you have big data, you have a problem. When we start to aggregate data and we have a source of something like one million rows, we have a big problem with MashZone because it is a very slow system.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"This has saved us a lot of money in the past, as instant status/notification prompts quick reaction from responsible team, and the issue is fixed within the SLA period, saving the company from various penalties."
"I haven't contacted support, but my colleagues said they were satisfied with the response."
"The ability to drag and drop dimensions into place and the ease of use that the reporting provides."
"Deployment was very simple and pulling in our SQL queries and stored procedures was a snap."
"It is a good tool with some very good out of the box features and good support for OLAP model and can be considered as implementing good dashboards."
"If quick dashboards are required without heavy features or customization, and there is no dedicated BI/Analytics developer, then Dundas Dashbaords works fine."
"With Dundas, we can now enforce a standard using themes so that all the reports have the same look and feel no matter who creates it."
"Combining SSAS and Dundas Dashboard has enabled us to consolidate this infrastructure into few very dashboards that offer the flexibility to analyze data by various dimensions quickly and easily."
"The technical support from Germany is very good."
"Mashzone is the best product on the market for process analysis."
"This solution is made to be easy-to-use. If you can use Excel, you can use MashZone."
"The most valuable features are real-time data, introspective data, and input data, and the interface is also very easy to use."
 

Cons

"We’ve experienced an unusually large number of bugs in the product since implementation."
"In times of heavy load, the dashboards take a long time to load."
"Installing - if someone has installed it using their work email as an ID, and they have moved on, and a new person is hired who needs to upgrade the currently running version, they can't do it."
"On occasion, the programme would crash and provided very little in the way of an error report, which was extremely frustrating especially when work was lost as a result."
"Dundas is constantly not picking up cube changes when deployed."
"I was a little disappointed in Dundas. I found other tools like Tableau and Power BI to be more powerful. I intended to use Dundus as an organizational BI tool, but I think there's a significant learning curve with Dundas versus the others."
"Random and obscure errors with poor exception details."
"The only improvement we have noticed would be if they could do away with using Silverlight."
"MashZone is not very good to use with big data, statistical analysis, or financial analysis. This is not what it is built to do."
"MashZone could be faster and provide more support for IoT platforms."
"If I try to analyze big data in MashZone, it is just impossible."
