In general, iDashboards not only has the capability to directly connect to thousands of data sources via JDBC driver and/or APIs, but we also have the ability to render other dashboard products through our front end interface. While many back-end data sources come with their own dashboard solution, it is typically limited to allowing only that data source to be turned into dashboards. iDashboards allows multiple data sources to be displayed on one dashboard. Additionally, our solution gives you the ability to blend different data sources and display them on one chart type through our Data Hub ETL tool which comes with every implementation. Therefore, the short answer is "yes," but further explanation would be needed for your unique situation to determine exactly how this would be accomplished. We are happy to have that conversation with you. Please visit this link and fill out the form, and I'll make sure to follow up with you right away. https://www.idashboards.com/contact/
