> Its disappointing another company has chosen to share our personal information with another third party

This forum poster would be… shocked to see how many SaaS companies are critical dependencies at most tech companies.

Imo, we need to get better at self hosting these kinds of tools. When I did a brief stint in BI tooling, we were basically using local tools with data exported from (gasp) SAP, and there was a dinky windows server behind someone’s desk where it’d run automated reports based on what we’d build and send out emails.

Certainly orders of magnitude cheaper. Maybe there was occasional downtime, but it didn’t really matter. You could always get the Oncall to generate the report you needed anyways
