Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Chartio

  • Chartio shut down on March 1, 2022 after the team joined Atlassian, and the site now serves only a shutdown notice and a migration guide
  • No pricing, signup or product access remains; the site's copyright notice stops at 2021
  • Existing customers were required to migrate their dashboards to another tool rather than being moved to an Atlassian successor product

Dundas BI

  • The published Embedded BI Package starts from about $4,738.70 USD per month billed annually for 8 core capacity
  • That figure reflects a limited time 35 percent promotional discount rather than list price
  • Licensing is by CPU core capacity rather than by user, so cost scales with server hardware
  • Dundas is now part of insightsoftware following acquisition
  • The page states that a pricing plan is worked out together with the vendor rather than published as a rate card
