Why build a customer insights dashboard instead of buying one?

  • Customization: Off-the-shelf customer insights dashboards frequently lack the capabilities or integrations with other tools that users often need to fit their unique needs. Or such features and integrations are available only in expensive enterprise tiers of the pre-built products and tend to be out of budget for most teams.

  • Scalability: You can modify a custom customer insights dashboard to include new data sources, features and functionalities as your business grows.

  • Control: Have more control over the development, maintenance and upgrades of your dashboard. Developers get all the control they want while building and shipping tools with our low-code, open-source product.

  • Flexibility: Build a dashboard you don’t need to rebuild again in 12 months. Easily adapt to changing requirements, internal processes, and new tools and technologies.

  • Competitive advantage: a custom customer insights dashboard can give your team a competitive advantage in the market by bringing in all their data in one place saving them hours every week.

What are the challenges of building a customer insights dashboard?

  • Integrations: Integrating data from various sources can be time-consuming and challenging. Developers need to ensure that the data is properly collected, normalized, and stored in a format that can then be easily analyzed and visualized.

  • Data management: Ensure that customer data is stored and processed in a way that complies with your organization's policies and regulations.

  • User experience: Providing a user-friendly and intuitive interface for the various teams to view, understand, and analyse important metrics can be a challenge without experienced frontend engineers.

  • Data privacy & security: Ensure your customer data is protected from unauthorized access. You can use our built-in role-based access controls to set user permissions before sharing the dashboard with your end users.

  • Maintenance and upgrades: It takes a lot of effort and time to keep your dashboards updated with the newest security updates, new feature or tool integration requests, technological advancements, and regulatory changes.
