5 Things To Consider Before You Start Using Dashboards

With so much data available now to businesses, it’s more important than ever to interpret and understand it, and ultimately use it to improve and grow the business. Data plays an integral part in decision-making and, when used correctly, will inform and guide your strategy.

We have numerous blogs on how to create a KPI dashboard, dashboard design tips and common dashboard design mistakes, but before even getting to that stage, there are a few considerations to keep in mind. We’ve detailed them in the infographic below:
