What is Dotnet Report?
Dotnet Report is an embedded self-service BI and reporting platform for .NET applications. You install it as a NuGet package, expose two API endpoints, and your users get a drag-and-drop report designer, dashboards, scheduled emails, exports, and an AI Assistant — all running inside your own app with your own data.
Which databases do you support?
SQL Server, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, plus stored procedures and SQL views. You can also write custom SQL for complex sources. Multiple connections per workspace are supported.
Is my data sent to your cloud?
No. The Dotnet Report cloud only stores report definitions (which fields, filters, charts). When a report runs, your .NET backend executes the SQL on your database and returns the rows. We never see the data.
How long does it take to embed?
Cloud: 5 minutes. Embedded in your .NET app: typically under 30 minutes for the basic integration. White-labeling and custom auth take an extra hour or two.
Does it work with ASP.NET Core / .NET 6/7/8/9?
Yes — fully supported on .NET 6, 7, 8, and 9 (and .NET Framework). We ship Razor and Angular/React frontend variants.
Can I white-label it?
Yes. Themes, colors, logos, and custom CSS are all supported. Most SaaS customers ship Dotnet Report inside their UI without users knowing it's a third-party engine.
How does multi-tenancy work?
Each tenant can have an isolated workspace with its own database connection, schema, reports, and permissions. Users only see what their role and tenant allow.
Do you support row-level security?
Yes. You can inject forced filters based on the logged-in user's claims (tenantId, department, region, etc.) that users cannot override.
Is there an on-premises option?
Yes. Air-gapped on-prem deployments are available for organizations with strict data sovereignty requirements.
How does pricing work?
Cloud plans are billed monthly per workspace; embedded/on-prem are licensed per deployment. There's a free trial with no credit card. See the
pricing page for details.
Can users build reports without SQL?
Absolutely — that's the whole point. The drag-and-drop designer, AI Assistant (plain English), and Live Preview mean even non-technical users can build production-quality reports.
Do you offer support?
Yes — every paid plan includes email support from the engineering team. Enterprise plans add Slack/Teams support and SLAs.
Can I export to PDF, Excel, CSV?
Yes — PDF, Excel (.xlsx), CSV, Word (.docx), and XML are all built in. Schedules can email any of these formats.
Does it have an AI Assistant?
Yes. The AI Assistant lets users describe a report in plain English and the system builds it. See the
AI Assistant page for details.
