Arena Director

Cons

“Performance can also become an issue with large datasets; once your model grows beyond a certain size, you start hitting refresh timeouts and slow visual rendering unless you invest time in optimization(aggregations, composite models).”
CA

Charumathi A.

Data Engineer

“Advanced features such as DAX formulas and data modeling have a steep learning curve and can be difficult for beginners to master.”

“Large models can consistently hit refresh timeout limits or memory constraints, which can lead to service interruptions when working on projects or testing current displays”
NB

Cons

“One drawback was the lack of flexibility to fully meet all of our organization's unique needs and workflows. While the platform offers useful features, certain limitations made it difficult to customize processes and adapt the system to specific operational requirements.”
RW

“Dash has very limited flexibility in what it is able to do, and is often extremely clunky.”
