Same platform. Three ways to run it.
The analytics engine is identical in every edition. The only difference is who operates it and where your data resides.

| Infrastructure | Shared, managed | Dedicated | Yours |
| Time to first dashboard | Minutes | Days | Weeks |
| Data location | Managed regions | Customer-selected region | Your data center |

What you don't pay for.
Most BI tools bill you again every time your team, your dashboard viewers, or your customer base grows. Here's what's simply included with Bold BI.
| Cost line other tools add | Who charges it | Bold BI |
|---|---|---|
| Per-user / per-viewer seat | Power BI (Pro/PPU, Fabric F-SKU capacity), Tableau, ThoughtSpot (consumption "Units") | ✓ Included — application-based, not per-user |
| Capacity or consumption billing | Power BI Fabric F-SKUs, ThoughtSpot Units, Domo (credits) | ✓ Included — no metered surprises |
| Separate GenAI / data-cloud tax | Tableau+ (requires a separate Salesforce Data Cloud instance for GenAI) | ✓ Included — AI Assistant built in, no second environment |
| Per-tenant / per-workspace fee | GoodData (per workspace), insightsoftware (per tenant) | ✓ Included — multi-tenancy built in |
| Embedding as a paid add-on | Luzmo (MAU/session metering), Preset (Embedded Viewer License packs, e.g. $500/mo per 50 viewers) | ✓ Included — embedding is core, not an upsell |
| White-labeling upcharge | Klipfolio (white-label bundle), some platforms gate branding behind a quote | ✓ Included — full white-labeling on every tier |
| Hyperscaler / ecosystem lock-in | Looker (Google Cloud/BigQuery-centric), Power BI (Azure/Fabric-centric) | ✓ Included — deploy on AWS, Azure, GCP, Docker, K8s, or fully offline |
| AI query caps | ThoughtSpot (Spotter query caps on lower tiers) | ✓ Included — no metered AI query limits |
One license. Unlimited viewers within your plan. Deploy it in your cloud, our cloud, or fully offline — the price doesn't change because you grew.
Switching platforms is the risk. We made that part free.
No matter which edition you choose, our team handles the move. Existing dashboards, data source connections, and reports transfer with guided migration support — so switching from Power BI, Tableau, or an in-house build doesn't mean starting over.
Free migration
Our experts help move your dashboards and data connections to Bold BI at no extra cost.
Easy onboarding
Guided setup to help you build your first dashboards faster.
30-day return policy
Full refund within 30 days, no questions asked.
Expert assistance
Cloud, Managed Private Cloud, or self-hosted — our support team guides your rollout.
Enterprise-Ready Compliance
Bold BI helps you meet key security and compliance standards. All activity logs are safely stored, can’t be changed, and are easy to export when needed.
Pricing questions, answered
No. Bold BI is not licensed per named user or viewer. Pricing is based on your deployment model and scale requirements, so growing your team or your customer base doesn't automatically trigger new licensing costs. During the quoting process, we consider deployment type and expected usage to recommend the right edition.
The core analytics platform is identical across all three. The difference is where it runs and who manages it.
Cloud — Fully managed by Bold BI on shared infrastructure. Fastest time to value, no servers to manage.
Managed Private Cloud — A dedicated environment operated by Bold BI exclusively for your organization, with additional isolation and a customer-selected data region.
On-Premises — Deployed inside your own infrastructure, giving you full control over hosting, security policy, updates, and data residency, including offline/air-gapped operation.
Yes. Every edition includes the complete Bold BI platform — dashboard design, 140+ connectors, AI Assistant, embedding SDKs, white-labeling, multi-tenancy, row-level security, and SSO. Deployment-specific capabilities (offline operation, customer-held encryption keys, infrastructure control) vary by edition, as shown in the comparison table above.
Yes. Bold BI is built embedding-first. Developers can use JS/React/Angular/Vue/.NET/Blazor SDKs and REST APIs to embed fully white-labeled, multi-tenant dashboards directly into a SaaS product — on any of the three deployment editions.
Power BI and Tableau both scale cost with usage — Power BI through per-user licensing and Fabric capacity (F-SKU) billing, Tableau through per-user pricing plus a separate Data Cloud requirement for GenAI features. Bold BI's application-based pricing means the quote is driven by deployment and scale tier, not by how many people view a dashboard.
Yes. Every edition includes a 30-day free trial with no credit card required, plus a 30-day money-back guarantee after purchase.
All editions include 24/5 customer support via chat, email, and WhatsApp, guided onboarding, and unlimited support tickets — support is not a paid add-on tier.
Yes. On-Premises deployments support Windows, Linux, Docker, and Kubernetes, as well as cloud VMs on AWS, Azure, and GCP.
Designed to deliver value. Priced to scale.
