SendTidings vs DashThis.

DashThis is a drag-and-drop dashboard builder for marketing agencies: the report is a live dashboard, with scheduled email summaries and shareable links on top. SendTidings gives your clients both a live white-label dashboard and a plain monthly report. Same audience; the difference is what you measure and what you pay.

Pick DashThis if

You want a live, drillable dashboard built widget by widget, and you enjoy the bespoke layout work: arranging KPI tiles, white-labelling the surface, tuning it per client. Building the dashboard is part of the product you sell.

Pick SendTidings if

You’d rather not spend two days building a dashboard per client. SendTidings gives them both surfaces out of the box: a live white-label dashboard they reach by secure magic link, no password, and a short monthly report in their inbox. One flat price, whichever way each client prefers to read.

Where the products diverge.

Both surfaces, no login wall.

DashThis makes genuinely good dashboards: drag-and-drop layouts, a wide integration set, proper white-label, and scheduled email summaries on top. The trade-offs are that each dashboard is built by hand, and the plan is priced by how many dashboards and data sources you use rather than a flat seat.

The other trade-off is the login. The drillable view sits behind an account, and plenty of small business owners never open it, no matter how nicely it’s laid out. The scheduled emails soften that, but they’re a summary of the dashboard rather than a report written to be read.

SendTidings gives your clients both surfaces without the per-client build. There’s a live white-label client dashboard they reach by secure magic link, no password to forget, and a short monthly report in their inbox. On top of that sit two things a dashboard tool doesn’t cover: Enquiries & Events, which counts real outcomes like call clicks, email clicks, contact-form submissions and WooCommerce purchases rather than just traffic (beta), and Goals & Opportunities, measurable targets your client watches as live progress bars, with recommended work they can request in one click (early access). All at one flat price.

When the dashboard itself is the deliverable.

  • Your clients use the live view. They do drill into the dashboard, not just glance at the scheduled email once a quarter.
  • You sell a bespoke surface. Part of your retainer is the dashboard itself: the way it looks, the layout you’ve built, the white-label polish.
  • You’re a marketing agency, not a web agency. DashThis’s integration set is built for paid ads, SEO, and social — the channels you care about.

When the email is the deliverable.

  • You don’t want a login wall. The SendTidings dashboard opens from a secure magic link, and the monthly report needs no account at all. Whichever your client prefers, nothing sits behind a password.
  • The website is the conversation. Your retainer is about the site: traffic, search, uptime, and the enquiries it actually generates, not multi-channel ad reporting.
  • You want zero setup per client. Drop a site in, pick an accent colour, hit go. No dashboard layout, no widget picking.
  • Flat pricing matters. £29/mo for up to 20 client sites is easier to slot into your retainer maths than tiers metered by dashboards and data-source count.
