Dashboards

Dashboards nobody opens, or where every team gets a different number. That's rarely the charts and almost always the data underneath. We build dashboards on your data warehouse, with the same definitions as the rest of your organisation.

What we often hear

  • Hardly anyone opens our dashboards
  • Every team gets a different number from the same dashboard
  • For every new question, someone has to build us a report
  • Nobody knows how a number in the dashboard is calculated

What we do

Lightdash, managed by us

We run and maintain Lightdash on your warehouse, on the same semantic layer as everything else. You don't have to install anything.

Roles and permissions

Who sees what, per team or per role.

The first dashboards

For management, marketing and finance, built around the questions they ask every week.

Working sessions

Two sessions in which your team learns to ask its own questions and build its own reports.

Your own BI tool

Already on Power BI, Tableau or Looker Studio? We connect it to the same model.

Growing with you

We add new questions and data sources, so your dashboards grow with your business.

What we work with

The tools we use for this. Which ones we pick depends on your setup.

“A very pleasant collaboration with Ivo and Freek for setting up Google Analytics and building a Looker Studio/Data Studio dashboard! Always a quick response via email and willing to brainstorm on website/analytics issues.”

Frequently asked questions

Lightdash or Looker Studio?

Both work. Looker Studio is free, but every report calculates its own numbers and keeping them up to date is manual work. That's why we recommend Lightdash on your warehouse, which we run for you: it uses the definitions from your model, so every dashboard shows the same number, and you control per role who sees what.

Can my team build its own dashboards?

Yes. The definitions live in the model, so anyone with access can build a chart without the numbers drifting.

Do your numbers add up?

One call is usually enough to see where it breaks.
