Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"I haven't contacted support, but my colleagues said they were satisfied with the response."

More Dundas Dashboard Pros →

"Very intuitive and easy to use.""The one feature most of our customers like is data visualization. When we were doing BI directly from SQL, most users found it challenging to create their own reports. Power BI has self-serve analytics that the end-users can do themselves. On most projects, people are primarily using data visualization and self-serve analytics.""Microsoft BI's dashboards are helpful.""It's user-friendly and provides data abstracting capabilities. We are also able to share reports with our colleagues very easily.""The drag and drop facility to easily change the data correctly is the most valuable feature. I am happy to see visualizations. It's easier to talk about and make people understand what is going on.""We find the solution offers good stability.""Power BI, once made available, can connect to various data sources, irrespective of the application, whether it be HR or business applications. The bank has many applications, but all eventually need to generate reports for tracking, distribution, or problem-finding based on analysis. Power BI was made available as part of the productivity suite to all businesses, which can connect to their applications and provide the reports and analysis they require.""The most valuable features in Microsoft BI are the analysis using the feature drag and drop function. It's very easy to load and use different data sources."

Cons
"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."

More Dundas Dashboard Cons →

"In Microsoft Excel, you are able to have tabs. However, in Microsoft BI you do not have this flexibility.""The integration in Microsoft BI could improve for other solutions, such as Oracle DB and PostgresSQL. Additionally, the reporting from the databases to Microsoft BI should be in real-time and the overall performance could be better.""The Microsoft BI interface should be simpler and more user-friendly. I find it very difficult to move between their data sources and their analytics section.""The solution doesn't integrate well with third-party tools.""From any improvement perspective, I want the product to be made available to users free of cost...The stability and scalability of the product can be better.""The solution could improve the mobile application design. It is difficult to use compared to the desktop version.""Its price could be better. Its licensing cost is very high.""These licenses are in US dollars. With a long-term license, the client is unaffected when the exchange rate goes up. However, if the exchange rate goes down, you don't get refunded from the excess money you've paid. I guess that is a risk you take in business."
