As a business intelligence user, this probably sounds familiar: Most dashboards only provide you with a standardized canvas and a fixed library of charts, and the “analysis” consists of a CSV export that takes you to another system. Or sometimes it’s designing the dashboard that’s the challenge: You can picture the executive briefing, the customer-facing portal, or the interactive explainer that you want, but can’t assemble it out of the available grid tiles. Either way, the solution has always been to build a custom application.
