    In case you missed any of these updates, we’ve put together a roundup of the top highlights from 2024:

    1. Visualize your data the way you need

    Databoard

    Easily customize your Databoards and charts to highlight the most important information.

    • New Visualizations: Select 5 new visualization types and add multiple comparison periods
    • Ad Creatives: View your ad creatives alongside your copy and metrics to better analyze your campaigns.
    • Granulation: Set weekly, monthly, quarterly, or yearly granulation for custom date ranges
    • Benchmark Data: Add benchmark data directly onto your dashboards, to see how you’re performing compared to other companies.
    • Dimension Colors: Assign colors to each dimension on the chart, making it easier for viewers to understand and engage with the data.
    • Median Line: Add a median line to your chart to more accurately see where the “middle point” of your data lies.
    • New Date Range Setting: Set a fixed start date, and have the end date adjust automatically. This way, your Databoards will always show you the entire duration of a campaign, from the start date to the most recent data.

    2. Save time and create, edit, and update faster than ever

    Get more done in less time with new capabilities to help you save time with your reporting tasks.

    • Connections: Login once to connect or re-authenticate accounts from the same platform.
    • Databoard Loop templates: Save Databoard Loops as account templates so you can reuse them later.

    3. Make more informed decisions

    Metric Insights screen

    Get deeper insights into your metrics and KPIs and use that to make better plans and improve your performance.

    • Metric Insights: Access all the information about a specific metric from one place, including Goals, Forecasts, Benchmarks, and more.
    • Save and adjust Forecasts: Apply seasonality to your Forecasts, then save them to track them over time.
    • Anomaly Detection: Quickly find and analyze historical anomalies in your data.
    • Benchmarks: Benchmark a specific metric to see how you compare to companies like yours. Quickly see where you’re ahead of the curve, and where there’s room to improve.

    4. Share Reports more easily

    Share reports through a live link

    Sharing Reports with stakeholders just got simpler and more interactive. With our new sharing settings, you can generate a public link to your report, allowing anyone to view it on-demand. Recipients can easily click through each slide and interact with the charts to further explore the data. And coming soon, you’ll be able to present slides in full-screen to present reports to your clients or company.

    5. Manage your data with confidence

    Advanced Security Management

    Easily manage who has access to your data and how it’s shared. We’ve introduced new features to give you more control over your account and data permissions.

    • Advanced Security Management add-on: Gain more control and visibility over users and their account activities, and maintain compliance with internal security processes.
    • Public link sharing: Choose whether a Databoard, Databoard Loop or Report is accessible through a public URL or internal link.

    6. Choose when your data gets updated

    Data sync frequency selection

    To give you more control over your data syncs, we’ve introduced new capabilities that let you choose how and when your data is refreshed.

    • Data Sync Frequency Selection: Pick how often Databox pulls data from your Data Sources. Pick from a range of intervals like every 24 hours, 8 hours, 4 hours, or every 60 minutes.
    • 15-minute Sync Add-on: Easily add or remove the 15-minute sync for specific Data Sources.
    • Instant Refresh: See your most recent data by manually refreshing your Databoards.
