Are you wondering how the new Userpilot<\/a> custom analytics dashboards can help you drive product growth?<\/p>\n

If so, you’re in the right place!<\/p>\n

In this article, you will learn about the main benefits of custom product analytics <\/a>dashboards and how to create them in Userpilot.<\/p>\n

What is the Userpilot custom analytics dashboards feature?<\/h2>\n

Until recently, Userpilot customers had access to 4 pre-built analytics dashboards: Product Usage, New User Activation<\/a>, Core Feature Engagement, and User Retention<\/a>.<\/p>\n

They were an excellent aid to product teams trying to optimize these metrics.<\/p>\n

And now things have gotten so much better.<\/p>\n

You can create your custom dashboards, populate them with data of interest, customize how it’s visualized, and filter them to zero in on specific events <\/a>or user segments.<\/p>\n

Userpilot is a robust analytics tool<\/a> so you can use its own data. Or leverage integrations <\/a>to import it from 3rd party apps, like Google Analytics 4 or Google Tag Manager.<\/p>\n

Why use Userpilot custom analytics dashboards?<\/h2>\n

Let’s unpack 3 main reasons why you might need the new custom analytics dashboards.<\/p>\n

View all important product analytics metrics in one place<\/h3>\n

Picture this: you want to optimize your customer expansion <\/a>initiatives to grow revenue. To do so, you head to a dashboard where you can see all relevant metrics<\/a>. No switching between tools or reports<\/a>. Everything in one place.<\/p>\n

Wouldn’t it be handy?<\/p>\n

The new custom analytics dashboards allow you to do just that. So that you can monitor the data in real-time and never miss important insights<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Customize the dashboards for different stakeholders<\/h3>\n

Teams across your organization focus on different aspects of product performance<\/a>. This means they need different data to make informed <\/a>decisions. For example, the product team <\/a>needs access to the product usage data, while the customer success team <\/a>may be interested in the onboarding stats.<\/p>\n

Senior leadership<\/a>, on the other hand, may not need detailed breakdowns but a high-level overview of key metrics.<\/p>\n

Guess what?<\/p>\n

With the custom dashboard functionality, you can create bespoke dashboards for all of them. And easily share them with relevant stakeholders to foster data democratization<\/a>, break up silos<\/a>, and improve cross-functional alignment.<\/p>\n

Tailor the dashboard to align with evolving business goals<\/h3>\n

As your business and product goals <\/a>change, so does the data you need to track.<\/p>\n

With custom dashboards, you can remove irrelevant data so that it doesn’t distract you from what matters.<\/p>\n

And you can add new metrics and reports <\/a>by dropping them onto the dashboard and moving them wherever it suits you best.<\/p>\n
