A great reporting solution doesn’t just save you time It helps your team or clients make better decisions. Don’t get me wrong, saving 12~ hours every month is great. But the bigger value is gathering stakeholders around the data and helping them see what performance was, what changed, and what to do next. That’s where the magic happens. You’re not just saving time. You’re focusing on improving key metrics together. Great reports help you find ways to double down on what’s going well. Or address downward trends before they become real problems. They help you get insights you didn’t have before. And ultimately, make better decisions, together. So we’re excited to announce our new Reports feature, designed to help you do just that. Share what performance was The foundation of every report is sharing how you performed over the past week, month, quarter, or year. Often, it helps to include visuals to help viewers quickly understand historic performances. Databox Reports lets you do this in seconds, by adding the Metrics and Databoards you’re already tracking. Or add a text block to share more context, so stakeholders understand what they’re looking at. Our new text editor lets you use new font types, bullet points, text color, bold, italics, and more. Highlight what changed It’s not enough for viewers to know what performance was, they need to know what changed. “We hit 20,000 sessions, and drove 1,500 signups”. Is that the same, better, or worse than we historically do? Are we trending up or down? You can help stakeholders see this by adding Data Stories, which compare performance to previous periods by using comparison periods and percentages of change. Or, add an AI-generated summary to do this automatically based on the data you included, to help stakeholders understand how performance has changed over time. And of course, you can visualize comparisons or change percentages on your Metrics and Databoards. Configure your layout To help readers quickly comprehend what they’re seeing, we’ve added rows and columns to help you better organize your content. This provides flexible design options, so you can format the content however you need. Discuss what to do next Now that your team or clients know how you performed, and what changed, it’s time to talk about what to do next. Where should you focus your time, energy, or budget? What steps will you take to improve? We did some research and found that teams have a variety of ways they like to report. Some prefer to present reports on a live meeting, so they can answer questions and make sure everyone’s on the same page. Others prefer crafting async writeups that stakeholders can read to understand, then meet to discuss later if needed. And some prefer to just pull up live, interactive dashboards and talk through the performance there. So our new Reports feature gives you two powerful formatting options. You can format your Report as a slide presentation, or as a “pageless” writeup (coming February 2025). For example, choose the Slides format to share performance using presentation mode and speaker notes. Or choose the Pageless format to share an asynchronous report on Slack or Teams, so stakeholders can read and digest it in their own time then meet to discuss it later. Need to change formats on the fly? Now you can do it in 1-click. Style it your way And while ultimately, it’s the substance that matter most, we know your Report needs to be on-brand and nicely styled. So we’ve added the ability to customize your reports with cover photos and emojis (coming soon), background colors, and more. Make better decisions, together The new Databox Reports feature is designed to help you gather your audience around the data, and use it to make better decisions that drive meaningful growth. We’re very excited to share this with you. Learn more about Databox Reports, or give it a spin today.
