We performed a comparison between Dundas BI and QlikView based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Embedded BI 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."
"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."
"The solution has a good drag-and-drop feature for creating dashboards."
"The solution is fast."
"It is useful to use a tool like this to have a view of data at a point in time. You can extract and create little data sets that you can store, and then over time, you can have a view for tracking changes. Especially when you work with a relational database or a database that's a production database, the data is dynamic, but if you use QlikView, you can take a snapshot of different datasets. In your own time, you can then get insights and report, build, analyze, and draw whatever you need from the data, which is quite useful."
"The search feature: ability to see the related data."
"The language support is very good."
"The initial setup is not very complex."
"The scalability is there."
"It's pretty easy to deploy."
"Scripting as per a customer's need, which is a pretty cool feature and not available in other tools."
"I cannot select a visualization and see what filters are connected to it."
"Lacks sufficient online support."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"Enhancing user-friendliness would be highly beneficial."
"Sometimes, dealing with complex reports requires more effort, which could be really improved."
"Syntax editor needs some work, it's frustrating to have valid syntax being flagged as incorrect."
"Scalability really depends on the size of your data and QlikView server architecture. For the biggest data sets, it could become an issue at some point."
"I really wish the application was easier to use in the development phase."
"QlikView's UI could be more user-friendly."
"There's room for improvement in the area of management's handling of concerns."
"Improvement in collaboration, between that and publishing of reports and publishing of models."
