Dashboard business
A good dashboard responds to decisions, not just displays graphs
Dashboards are worth building when data exists, but the decision is hard to make because information is divided between tools, exports and manual reports. We start from the management questions, then we define KPI, filters and sources.
- KPI clearWe determine the indicators that influence the decision: sales, leads, cashflow, stock, delivery, productivity or operational.
- Connected sourcesData can come from APIs, databases, CRM, online store, exported files or internal systems.
- Filters and rolesEach user sees the right level of detail: management, commercial, operational or financial team.
- Export and monitoringWe add exports, alerts and checks for missing data or failed synchronization.
Choice
Dashboard, automatic report or internal application
Not every reporting problem requires a big application. We choose the minimum form that offers visibility and reduces manual labour.
Live Dashboard
Best suited when: you need frequent visibility on important indicators.
Keep in mind: data shall be cleaned and synchronised in a consistent manner.
Automatic report
Best suited when: management needs a regular summary without complex interface.
Keep in mind: reports sent by e-mail may be lost if there is no clear responsibility.
Internal application
Best suited when: users not only read the data, but edit it, approve or complete it.
Keep in mind: requires access rules, living audit and better defined process.
Quality signals
How's the credible dashboard?
Trust comes from clear sources, stable definitions for KPI and a design that makes the difference between signal and noise.
- KPI Dictionary and agreed formulas prior to design.
- Connection to data sources suitable for the desired frequency.
- Useful filters, not dozens of options that hide the answer.
- Secure access and different views on roles.
- Testing on actual data prior to internal launch.
Connection
Service works better when it's connected to the rest of the project
Any service works better when connected to the rest of the ecosystem: content, SEO, data, operation, hosting and maintenance.
- Custom applications
- CRM
- Executive dashboards
- API integration
