==History Products ==

Dundas Data Visualization (formerly Dundas Software) was founded in 1992 in [[Toronto|Toronto, Ontario]], [[Canada]].

Dundas originally developed a suite of .NET-based data visualization components, including Dundas Chart, Dundas Gauge, and Dundas Map, for both ASP.NET and Windows Forms applications. These tools allowed developers to embed advanced charting, gauge, and mapping functionality directly into software. The company later expanded to support SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) and was among the first to offer custom visualization components for [[SharePoint]].

After an early success with Dundas Chart in 2002, the company developed Dundas Gauge, Map, OLAP Chart, and Calendar controls, which were purchased by [[Microsoft]] in 2007 to become part of their Reporting Services, SharePoint, and .NET offerings.<ref>{{cite web |title=More Dundas Components Move to Microsoft |url=https://prologika.com/more-dundas-components-move-to-microsoft/ |website=Prologika |access-date=29 April 2021}}</ref>

In 2007, Microsoft acquired several of Dundas’s .NET components, incorporating them into the .NET Framework, SQL Server Reporting Services, and other Microsoft platforms.<ref>{{cite web |title=Chart Controls Released in .NET Framework 3.5 |url=https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/sql-server/blog/2008/11/11/chart-controls-released-in-net-framework-3-5/ |website=Microsoft |date=2008-11-11 |access-date=2025-03-28}}</ref> Dundas continued to operate independently and shifted its focus to end-to-end dashboard and BI solutions.

In 2008, Dundas developed '''Dundas Dashboard''' as a dashboarding tool for enterprise organizations.
