Scheduling

You schedule 50 datasets to refresh at midnight and wonder why half of them are slow or fail.

See exactly when every refresh runs and where the collisions are.

  • See every schedule across your tenant on one heat map
  • Spot collisions before they cause failures at peak times
  • Get data-driven off-peak slot recommendations

Why this matters

See the difference scheduling makes for your team.

Without SummitView
  • No visibility into when other datasets refresh
  • Collision issues only surface as random failures
  • Manually tracking schedules across workspaces in a spreadsheet
With SummitView
  • See every schedule on a tenant-wide heat map
  • Get collision warnings before problems happen
  • Find off-peak windows automatically
