The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Dundas BI the published Embedded BI Package starts from about $4,738.70 USD per month billed annually for 8 core capacity; Jedox cube modelling is a specialist skill closer to IBM TM1 than to a modern SaaS planning tool, so most customers depend on a partner or a single internal expert whose departure leaves the model unmaintainable.
  • They diverge on capability: Dundas BI covers White-labeling, Jedox covers In-memory OLAP cube.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

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

Jedox

  • Cube modelling is a specialist skill closer to IBM TM1 than to a modern SaaS planning tool, so most customers depend on a partner or a single internal expert whose departure leaves the model unmaintainable.
  • Almost every deployment carries a partner implementation fee that frequently matches or exceeds the first year of licence, and that cost never appears in the vendor comparison you are shown.
  • The Excel add-in is the strongest client, which means Mac-based and browser-only users get a materially thinner experience than the Windows majority.
  • Dashboards and visual analytics are weaker than dedicated BI tools, so organisations typically keep Power BI or Tableau alongside Jedox and pay for both.
  • Insight Partners took a majority stake in 2021, and the pressure toward a cloud subscription base has meant self-managed customers see new capability later than cloud ones.
