Enterprise Ready Intelligence

Go from Zero to Dashboard in record time

With DevExpress Dashboard for .NET, Angular, React and Vue, creating insightful and information-rich decision support systems for executives and business users across platforms and devices is a simple matter of selecting the appropriate UI widget (Chart, Pivot Table, Data Card, Gauge, TreeMap, Map, Grid or simple Filter elements) and dropping data fields onto corresponding arguments, values, and series.

And because DevExpress BI Dashboard automatically provides the best data visualization option for you, results are immediate, accurate and always relevant.

Getting up to speed on the Dashboard was definitely easier having used your controls. Once there, however, it was obvious how powerful, fast and easy it is. Christopher Burroughs

Any Data Source. Anytime.

DevExpress Dashboard for .NET allows you to focus on what matters most, your data. It was engineered so you can spend more time on business logic and less time on UI customization. Whether it's manipulation of individual chart series, specifying a pivot table's dimensions or connecting UI elements to fields across different data-sources or data providers, DevExpress Dashboard is built to make your experience a productive one. With our tools, you create your dashboard data source once via our built-in data source wizard and drag the desired fields from our field browser to the data visualization drop area.

Frequently Asked Questions

I hate on-going fees and I don't want to pay a monthly fee for my BI Dashboard. Is DevExpress Dashboard royalty-free?

Absolutely. Once you purchase a DevExpress Universal subscription, you can distribute all DevExpress BI Dashboard components included in our Universal Subscription royalty-free. And yes, you will not have to pay monthly fees once you deploy DevExpress BI Dashboard to your end-users/clients. Refer to our End User License Agreement for more information about terms/conditions or email clientservices@devexpress.com with specific license-related questions.

How is DevExpress Dashboard different from Power BI and Tableau?

1. Unlike Power BI and Tableau, DevExpress Dashboard offers straightforward licensing terms. Our simple, perpetual-use licensing model offers the following benefits to you and your enterprise:

  • You do not need to calculate the number of end-user licenses (which can change as business requirements change). DevExpress Dashboard does not require the purchase of end-user licenses.

  • You do not need to calculate the number of licenses for dashboard creators/designers separately. DevExpress licenses its products per software developer. One Universal license can give you access to all product features (refer to our End User License Agreement for mor information in this regard).

  • You can pay for a single developer license (Universal Subscription) and deploy our full-featured Dashboard Viewer/Designer across an unlimited number of apps. Once again, DevExpress does not require the purchase of individual end-user licenses or separate licenses for creators/designers.

2. Tableau Embedded Analytics and Microsoft Power BI Embedded do not offer effective options for embedding dashboard viewers/creators/designers into Windows desktop apps (existing solutions involve hacks using WebBrowser controls, IFRAME and Win32 API). DevExpress BI Dashboard allows you to embed and deploy stunning, fully interactive reports and dashboards into .NET WinForms or WPF desktop apps (yes, we ship native Dashboard Viewers for WinForms and WPF, not hacked web page wrappers).

3. Developing custom UI/visual elements for both Tableau and Power BI can be cumbersome from a developer's point of view (example). This is due to architectural limitations (Tableau/Power BI require the use of wrapped web pages). DevExpress BI Dashboard was built with native and reusable DevExpress UI components.

As such, DevExpress Dashboard is customizable and extendable by design. To customize our dashboard viewers/creators/designers, simply use our built-in customization options, and fully leverage the potential of the target UI platform (developers can use the power of C# or JavaScript and avoid the limited/non-intuitive configurations of JSON files/script parameters).

My IT department wants to replace Power BI/Tableau with an in-house app (We need to reduce costs and maintain flexibility). Is it easy to self-host DevExpress BI Dashboard (I need a Dashboard that can be deployed easily within our enterprise)?

Adding DevExpress BI Dashboard into an existing app does not alter its existing deployment model. You can deploy embedded dashboards within your own/third-party infrastructure (On-Premises or Cloud) using straightforward options for a variety of target UI platforms:

  • Windows Desktop with .NET WinForms and WPF

  • Web & Mobile with ASP.NET Core MVC or Blazor; Angular, React, and Vue for JavaScript, or ASP.NET WebForms & MVC5 for existing legacy apps

From a developer/deployment perspective, you will simply deploy a few more assemblies with your existing app/solution. If you have specific deployment questions or need to discuss your business needs in greater detail, please email info@devexpress.com at your convenience.

I am an ISV/Consultant and I build vertical market apps/custom solutions for my clients. Can I integrate DevExpress BI Dashboard into my vertical market app/custom solution? Do I have to pay royalties for each app/solution?

You can integrate DevExpress BI Dashboard into your vertical market app/custom solution by linking to your existing data model or to a new data source.

DevExpress licenses its products on a per-developer model. So once you purchase the appropriate developer licenses for our Universal Subscription, you can distribute your app/custom solution royalty-free. Refer to our End User License Agreement for more information in this regard.
