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.

dashboards are good and data visualization is more meaningful for the end-user
Access is always via URL, and unless your network is fast, it would be a little tough in India. In India, if we had a faster network, it would be easier. In a big data environment, like when forcing your database with over a billion records, it can be tough for the end-user to manage the data. You need to have a single entity system in each environment. It's not because of GCP, but it would be great to have options like MongoDB or other similar tools in GCP. Then, we wouldn't always need to connect to the cloud and execute SQL queries. Even if your application is always connected to its database, the processing can be cumbersome. It shouldn't be so complicated. Once the data is collected, it should be easily sorted.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Dundas is great for creating attractive dashboards that look as though they have been custom designed rather than put together using a BI tool."
"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."
"Deployment was very simple and pulling in our SQL queries and stored procedures was a snap."
"I haven't contacted support, but my colleagues said they were satisfied with the response."
"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."
"If quick dashboards are required without heavy features or customization, and there is no dedicated BI/Analytics developer, then Dundas Dashbaords works fine."
"The ability to drag and drop dimensions into place and the ease of use that the reporting provides."
"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."
"Google Cloud Datalab is very customizable."
"The infrastructure is highly reliable and efficient, contributing to a positive experience."
"In MLOps, when we are designing the data pipeline, the designing of the data pipeline is easy in Google Cloud."
"For me, it has been a stable product."
"The APIs are valuable."
"All of the features of this product are quite good."
 

Cons

"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."
"Random and obscure errors with poor exception details."
"In times of heavy load, the dashboards take a long time to load."
"The only improvement we have noticed would be if they could do away with using Silverlight."
"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."
"Dundas is constantly not picking up cube changes when deployed."
"We’ve experienced an unusually large number of bugs in the product since implementation."
"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."
"The product must be made more user-friendly."
"The interface should be more user-friendly."
"Connectivity challenges for end-users, particularly when loading data, environments, and libraries, need to be addressed for an enhanced user experience."
"We have also encountered challenges during our transition period in terms of data control and segmentation. The management of each channel and data structure as it has its own unique characteristics requires very detailed and precise control. The allocation should be appropriate and the complexity increases due to the different time zones and geographic locations of our clients. The process usually involves migrating the existing database sets to gcp and ensure data integrity is maintained. This is the only challenge that we faced while navigating the integers of the solution and honestly it was an interesting and unique experience."
"There is room for improvement in the graphical user interface. So that the initial user would use it properly, that would be a good option."
"Even if your application is always connected to its database, the processing can be cumbersome. It shouldn't be so complicated."
