Where each one falls short

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

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

Grow

  • The pricing URL serves marketing content with no plan, rate, minimum or cost driver published anywhere on it
  • The only calls to action are Get Started Now and Watch Demo; there is no self-serve rate card
  • The vendor advertises unlimited users with no per-seat charges, which means the price driver is not disclosed at all
