1. Knowage must be used in compiance with AFFERO GPL3 license (https://www.gnu.org/licenses/agpl-3.0.html). If you are willing to do business with Knowage, please contact our sales department at knowage@eng.it

2. It is possible to schedule reports (https://knowage-suite.readthedocs.io/en/7.2/administrator-guide/scheduler.html), but only with Knowage Enterprise Edition.

3. Creating users and showing them specific reports (users' role management) is possible.

4. Knowage has a specific module, the Smart Intelligence, that allows to create smart interactive dashboards (https://www.knowage-suite.com/site/product/smart-intelligence/)

Thanks a lot, i really appreciate the help.

Due to this document https://release.ow2.org/knowage/Knowage_6.x_CE_Manual.pdf scheduler should be in CE.

As I understand it was removed in version 7.x?

Is it possible to get 6.x with this feature or SpagoBI is the only solution,
