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
ProfitWell
- ProfitWell is now part of Paddle and its pricing page redirects to paddle.com, so it is no longer sold or priced independently
- Reaching any figure requires going through Paddle's own pricing rather than a ProfitWell rate card
