Feature comparison

Side-by-side look at how Duneside and Databox compare for PPC agency client reporting.

Capability

Databox

Per-client pricing

BI platform pricing, not per-client

Databox plans are tiered by features and data sources — not optimized for agency per-client reporting economics.

~$5 per client on average

Pricing scales with your client roster — Starter covers 10 clients for $39/mo.

Integration pricing

130+ integrations — most you won't use

CRM, finance, product analytics, and warehouse connectors add complexity for PPC-only agencies.

Pay only for the channels you need

Google Ads, Meta Ads, GA4, and Search Console — the four platforms PPC agencies report on.

White-label branding

Dashboards and reports, limited client branding

Databox excels at internal dashboards. Client-facing white-label reports require more setup.

Included on Starter

Client-ready reports with your agency branding — no Duneside logo from day one.

AI report narratives

AI Analyst for internal questions

Genie answers business performance questions for your team — not client-facing report narratives.

AI-generated narratives, fully editable

Executive summaries written for clients — review, edit, and send without starting from scratch.

Report templates

300+ dashboard templates

Templates for internal KPI tracking — Google Ads, Facebook, LinkedIn overviews require customization.

Built-in, client-focused PPC templates

ROAS, CPA, spend, and lead gen report structures ready for client delivery.

Multi-channel PPC reporting

Build dashboards to combine sources

Combine ad platform data with datasets and custom metrics — powerful but requires BI setup.

Unified cross-channel reports

Google Ads, Meta, GA4, and Search Console in one client-ready view automatically.

Setup time

Days to configure metrics and dashboards

Connect sources, build datasets, standardize KPIs, and create dashboards before reporting.

Set up in minutes

Connect accounts and generate your first client report the same day.

Pricing snapshot

Databox

Databox offers a free-forever plan and paid tiers (Analyst, Pro, Growth) based on features, data sources, and AI credits — designed for internal BI teams.

Duneside

Duneside Starter is $39/mo for up to 10 PPC clients. Agency is $79/mo for up to 30 clients with extended scheduling and priority support.
