Analytics that wins awards and users
Recognized by G2, TrustRadius, and Visual Studio Magazine for delivering standout performance and value.
I appreciate Bold BI for making it easier to provide reporting for our customers, allowing both our analysts and customers to easily build and publish reports. The ability to build dashboards and modify queries for specific outcomes is very user-friendly. I value the mobile readiness of the app and its integration capabilities with API structures. The addition of AI features is impressive. The economic pricing model and the effective partnership, which includes consistent and helpful support, make it an invaluable tool for our OEM model.

It was easy to implement data visualizations into our product. The standard widgets allowed us to build professional looking dashboards, and a robust API provided excellent control of the development and runtime process from within our application.

Companies and individuals with less than $1,000,000 USD in annual gross revenue, 5 or fewer developers, and 10 or fewer total employees.
Note: An entity or organization may not have ever received more than $3,000,000 USD in capital from an outside source, such as private equity or venture capital, in order to be eligible for the Community License.
The Community License has the same features and support as the paid license, but it offers only two deployment options, the Windows installer and Linux package. With a paid license, you have access to Windows, Linux, Docker, and Managed hosting is available for paid licenses only.
We offer the Community License to boost your startup to success. Once you're there, you'll need to upgrade to a more comprehensive paid license. The Community License continues until you or your company are ineligible.
Each license is valued at $995 USD per month, so for one year, that is a savings of $11,940 USD for each tenant. If you have more tenants, you save even more.
We hope to add even more value to this program in the future, but we need your help in letting people know about it. We appreciate any help spreading the word through social medial, blogs, or third-party review sites.
There are two scenarios to consider.
Your organization owns the intellectual property (IP). You deliver binaries to your customers, who have no claim on the IP itself. Redistribution to others is allowed under our standard redistribution grant, provided the customer does not distribute or white-label the resulting application — they can only use it internally. If they distribute it, the second scenario applies.
Your customer owns the IP or distributes the application built on your IP. Syncfusion will allow you to give each client a single commercial binary license for free, provided each entity would itself qualify for the Community License. You'll need to provide customer information so we can confirm their eligibility. If your customer does internal development or moves development elsewhere, they will need to buy commercial licenses. As long as your company is the only one working on the application and continues to meet Community License requirements, no further licenses are needed.
Yes, but we require that you first contact us to register.
Government-related organizations (funded by tax dollars) are not eligible. Governmental agencies that are not taxpayer-funded may be eligible after signing a master license agreement. Contact us to initiate the request.
- Click the Claim Free License link, and you'll be directed to the signup page.
- Register your account, then you'll be directed to the Community License request form.
- Enter your information, and a ticket will be generated to validate your eligibility.
- If you qualify, you'll receive your free Community License after validation.
