Migration of dashboards to Apache Superset

Capmo, a fast-growing provider of construction management software, integrated dashboards into their application for real-time insights, initially using Looker.
However, Looker's high annual fee, along with the need for a seamless, branded analytics experience, scalability, and secure data access, led Capmo to seek a more cost-effective, open-source solution.

Capmo partnered with Astrafy to design and implement a modern, cost-effective alternative to Looker using Apache Superset, a powerful open-source business intelligence platform. We delivered:

• Dashboard Migration: We faithfully replicated all existing Looker dashboards into Superset, matching Capmo's corporate branding and user experience expectations.

• Row-Level Security: We implemented robust RLS to ensure each user could access only their own data, maintaining strict data isolation across clients.

• Embedded Integration: Our team supported Capmo throughout the integration of Superset dashboards within their web application, ensuring a seamless user experience for their customers.

• Knowledge Transfer: We enabled Capmo's internal team to maintain and extend the platform autonomously by delivering hands-on training and documentation.

Immediate annual savings of €50,000+ by switching to Apache Superset.

Migrated key dashboards with no loss in performance or functionality.

Seamless, secure RLS enabled confident scaling of embedded analytics.

Capmo's team can now independently manage and extend their Superset-based platform.

The transition to Apache Superset enabled Capmo to:

• Reduce BI Tooling Costs by over €50,000 per year, reallocating budget to other high-priority initiatives.

• Retain Full Control over their analytics stack with open-source flexibility.

• Deliver Branded, Embedded Dashboards to customers, with improved performance and zero vendor lock-in.

• Scale securely thanks to built-in Row-Level Security and user-specific data access controls.
