Introduction into KPI Dashboards
What is a Dashboard? Well, whatever you want it to be! Wikipedia describes it as follows: “In computer information systems, a dashboard is a type of graphical user interface that often provides at-a-glance views of data relevant to a particular objective or process through a combination of visualizations and summary information.”
It is the central point where data is presented to your organization. So it is different for every group of users, depending on which metrics and stats need to be closely monitored in order to effectively lead the organization. Because of this no two Dashboards are the same, and there should never be a one size fits all solution. Hence, we at Dashcoon believe in an approach of indexing what is vital and then pouring this into the most insightful overview possible. Your very own command center so you can always keep a keen eye on the data that matters.

Specific dashboard questions
Can a dashboard integrate data from multiple sources?
Yeah, there is practically no limit on how many sources of data you can integrate into a dashboard. Of course, the question arises, should you integrate 101 sources? In general, you want to keep it concise. But we specialize in connecting all relevant sources. No matter if they are siloed or built on older legacy systems.
What does the dashboard environment look like?
You can think of it as a website, perhaps your personal bank environment is the best comparison. It’s a heavily secured environment but in essence, a website because it’s all based on web technology, as far as the displaying of information and logging in is concerned at least.
As for colors, fonts, logos and such it can be whatever you wish it to be.
What kind of information can a dashboard display?
Open tickets, trial accounts converted to paying customers, MRR, numbers of emails sent… you name it! As long as there is access to a system that has some kind of data pertaining to what will be displayed in the dashboard, it’s a viable candidate to integrate into the dashboard.
The dashboard can also take two sources of information and do the combination & equation of these two in real-time. So in this case, a dashboard is truly greater than the sum of its parts.
What is the added value of a dashboard?
It shows you clearly and instantaneously how the company is performing across the board, based on metric that you have defined as relevant. This gives you the ability to identify and correct negative trends, or to capitalize on positive ones. So simply put you can have a much quicker and firmer grasp of what is happening company wide. As opposed to the wild goose chase you might have to do to get a clear information based picture otherwise.
