Business Intelligence Dashboard

Search Business Analytics, Wednesday, November 15,2023

A business intelligence dashboard, or BI dashboard, is a data visualization and analysis tool that displays on one screen the status of key performance indicators (KPIs) and other important business metrics and data points for an organization, department, team or process.

Dashboards are an integral component of most BI software platforms and are used to deliver analytics information to business executives and other employees.

These tools are also sometimes referred to as business dashboards, business intelligence tools or data dashboards. They typically contain multiple data visualizations to give users a combined view of relevant KPIs and trends for both operational decision-making and strategic planning.

BI dashboards are more interactive than static BI reports, usually enabling users to access the data that underlies charts and graphs for further analysis. In some cases, dashboards are designed by the members of a BI team; in others, they're created by business analysts and other users of self-service BI tools.
