External Sharing B2B
Anonymous Is adding your domain as a trusted domain a viable option? I don't know the specifics, but this should be possible. Outside of that, you could use embedded to have external users access their reports via an application to get around this. DO NOT use Publish to Web - that feature is not for private data, you will expose your clients information to anyone on the internet. You need to purchase an Embedded sku. The "A" or azure usage sku is the easiest to purchase.
I'm facing a very similar issue. The pricing model is asinine. Buying a Pro license for each external user is more cost effective than embedded as long as one has < 75 users, which I suspect is more than A1 is designed for anyways. But of course, doing so creates it's own issues, as many of us are now experiencing.
Are there any plans to introduce some scalability into the embedded pricing model? When I started designing my product embedded was $5/100 page views, but that rug was pulled out from under me.
Another issue is that this makes marketing far more difficult than it should be - thus preventing me from getting to a place where I can justfy $750+/m. I can't embed a demo behind a user account wall to attract new users without making that available to the world (publish to web) or signing them up for Pro accounts.
