We’re excited to share a few smaller improvements to the app that give you more flexibility over the way you can visualize your performance data in Databox.

Basically, these improvements allow you to pull more insights with less work.

Check out the video, where we're going to walk you through the following 4 improvements...

- Updates for how your data can be presented in pie charts

- Smart y-axis scaling for even more performance detail on all of your charts

- More flexibility in how your data is presented in Table visualizations, and...

- The ability to quickly change dimensions for certain metrics on your Home and Metrics screens

While everyone else is digging around different tools or combing through slides and spreadsheets, your clients' performance updates can be sent right to them... ...in Slack.

Yup. We just improved our Slack integration, which now allows you to automate daily, weekly, or monthly Scorecards and performance Alerts to any public Slack channel you want.

Just choose the most important metrics for any client, pick the time you want the update to be sent, and choose the Slack channel they want it delivered to.

You can even set this up for your agency so everyone has the most important KPIs top of mind.

Here’s how it works

Ready to track client performance in Databox, but not necessarily ready to invite clients to your account?

We've received feedback from agency customers that simply want to get started in tracking client performance right away.

Now, you no longer need to enter a client name and email address in order to add client accounts in Databox.

Instead, you can add new clients in bulk by simply typing the name of the client account and assigning an Account manager from your team to each client account.

Here’s how you do it.

The average company may track data from dozens of different tools. And when it comes to bringing all of that data into one place, you might not have access to all of the tools in order to do so.

Now, we’ve made it simple to get access to the tools you need in order to track performance.

You can request access to a certain Data Source directly from Databox.

This way, you avoid writing emails or Slack messages back and forth trying to get the admin permissions to a Data Source that you need to integrate within Databox to create your reports.

Here’s how you do it:

Do you ever feel like you spend more time trying to find data than you do analyzing it?

When multiple people and teams are building Databoards in order to track the metrics that are most important to them, it can get a little noisy and harder to find the things you need. Now, you can filter Databoards in your account by the person who created it.

This way, you spend less time trying to track down data from specific teams or individuals, and more time actually analyzing it and determining next steps...

Here’s everything you need to know about all of our Databoard filtering options.

P.S. We’re available to help you get anything set up, just respond here and let us know what you’re looking to track.

Sometimes, you might not have login access to the data sources you need to integrate with Databox. Well, we’ve now made it easier for you to request access right inside Databox so you don’t have to waste time on Slack, email, or elsewhere trying to get access from teammates.

Do you have multiple people building Databoards inside Databox? Now, it’s much easier to find specific Databoards built by each person by filtering Databoards by user. Find and dig into performance by department, by individual, and more.

Now, it only takes a few clicks for anyone in your organization to create a personalized view of all the metrics that matter to them, then collaborate with colleagues to select all the metrics that matter to your entire organization.

Once aligned around the right metrics, you can set goals, create alerts, build share-able dashboards, all directly from the Metrics screen in just a few clicks.

With the metrics Screen, your organization can eliminate the manual work of tracking performance and reporting and shift that time towards taking the actions that improve performance.

We've made it easier for teams to stay up-to-date on their most important performance metrics. Now, account admins can add multiple recipients to Scorecards so everyone is aware of how key metrics are trending.

Over the last year, Google Sheets has been the most requested Databox integration–by far. Today, that integration is now live.

Turn your Google Spreadsheets into interactive dashboards that are available on desktop, office TVs, and your mobile devices.

The Google Sheets integration is available with all plans that include our Query Builder functionality. If your plan has access to Query Builder, you can login and start using the Google Sheets integration, as of today.

The "Databoard Loop" feature gives you the ability to create comprehensive reports out of individual Databoards. Now you can schedule snapshots of such loops with just one click!

The new PDF option will combine all looped Databoards in a multi-page PDF that will be attached to the scheduled email.

Big updates to the app and dashboard designer (as well as 1,712 new pre-configured Datablocks) make it easier than ever to find and track the most important KPIs.

With Databox, we’ve pre-configured 3,000+ of the most common metrics from every integration we’ve built. Just connect any one of these 65 tools, then choose the metrics you want to instantly visualize. But, with these latest updates in Databox, we didn’t just add a significant number of new pre-built Datablocks for every one of our integrations. We also made improvements to help you quickly find and visualize the KPIs that are important to you.

Need an easier way to share live dashboards on your website, wiki, or web application?

Now, with the Databoard Embed feature, you can share and publish live dashboards on any web page, blog post, wiki page, web application, or intranet portal.

The coolest part? Embedded Databoards are fully interactive and live, meaning they’ll update live, wherever they’re published, as the data changes.

Now you can visualize your performance data with fewer clicks and in less time than ever before.

The new Databox Designer eliminates both limitations – fewer clicks are needed to reorder blocks, resize blocks or add new blocks to an already full Databoard. We’ve re-developed much of the code behind the Designer too, so it’s also much faster now.

Data Calculations allows you to combine (add, subtract, multiply, divide) your business performance metrics from any source without a spreadsheet. With Databox’s new Data Calculations feature, one of the most challenging aspects of performance tracking has just been made infinitely easier.
