Syncfusion, Inc.
About the Developer Portal
After nearly two decades of polishing one of the most impressive collections of UI controls on the market, Syncfusion channeled its data visualization expertise into Bold BI, a simplified yet comprehensive solution for building and delivering business dashboards.
With Bold BI, users can connect to their data, modify it to suit their specific needs, construct dashboards with relevant KPIs, and share those with their users to facilitate collaboration. With Bold BI’s drag-and-drop interface, users don’t need to have a technical background to create beautiful dashboards. The flexibility of Bold BI lets users either build and deliver dashboards without installing any software or create and manage dashboards from their own servers.
After an evaluator signs up for a free trial, our onboarding team helps them get started setting up dashboards. Our team members are always happy to help with any questions, but with Bold BI’s user-friendly designer and the vast array of self-service help resources available via its developer portal, creating powerful business intelligence dashboards has never been easier.
Why They Stand Out
BEST REFERENCE DOCUMENTATION BEYOND REST APIS
Bold BI’s documentation provides in-depth explanations and code samples that familiarize users with the inner workings of the product and detail best practices for implementation.
This constantly expanding repository of articles (1,439 and counting!) describes each module and new feature and provides step-by-step guidance. The KB articles for Bold BI are both searchable by keyword and broken out into logical categories for easy browsing. From FAQs, to troubleshooting advice, to security considerations, there’s a KB article that touches on every aspect of Bold BI.
Concise product overviews, quick-start clips, and more than 100 video tutorials provide Bold BI users with yet another avenue for learning about the product’s capabilities and use cases. Dozens of webinars dive deep into a wide spectrum of use cases and release recaps highlight the key features of each new version, helping users keep pace as Bold BI grows and evolves.
