PUG Switzerland: Supercharge your KPI dashboards to drive action

By Sandra Simonovic • Last updated April 4, 2022

A good KPI dashboard should enable users to understand the context behind key metrics and empower them to take actions, based on data. That's called Actionable Reporting.

Join us at the PUG Switzerland and learn how to make reports and dashboards that are well-structured, understandable, and actionable.

About the session

It all starts on your landing page with an informative scoreboard that shows where your business is going. Users should immediately understand which KPIs are performing well, and which are not. You should just glance at the landing page and see the comparison to plan, forecast, or previous year, see what is driving your KPIs up or down, and make predictions.

Zebra BI's CEO Andrej Lapajne will teach you:

How to create clear and consistent dashboard pages
How to collect and present key business drivers / KPIs on the landing page
Elements of Actionable Reporting (advanced charts - variance analysis, small multiples, top N + others, grouped tables with variances. report page tooltips, dynamic commentary, and more)
Hands-on practical examples in Power BI
Latest technology from Zebra BI

Join us to learn how to nail your dashboard landing pages in Power BI and make your KPI scorecards super actionable!

Our financial landing page at KPN is completely based on the sales dashboard template. We also use a copy of the consolidated financials. The templates of Zebra BI are providing us with a lot of inspiration, and we don't "need to invent the wheel" again 😉

I've recently been experimenting with Zebra BI's custom Table visual, which is like the native Power BI matrix on steroids. If your work allows for the use of custom visuals, I think it's definitely worth checking out. Planning on doing a video on it soon...

Hot damn @ZebraBI...speechless. Can’t share it but it looks good!

I had a phone interview for a #PowerBI contract, where the interviewer said of the sample dashboards in my CV: "Great...I see you use @ZebraBI!" How cool is that? And they mentioned my top-secret passphrase on the call: "Actionable Insight". I'm in.

Manuel Barahona Gandía

Business Intelligence Reporting Manager

The reusable trick of switch I think is brilliant! And obviously, Zebra BI table replaces any other table now in Power bi. RIP to normal tables!

Daniel DeHaven

Director of Financial Systems

This visual from Zebra BI enables you to build stunning P&L, CF, and BS statements with complex structures with ease. Very intuitive for developers and users. In my opinion the best solution for Financial Reporting structures. 11 Stars!

Already tried stacked bar. It's fantastic! Thank you for such a great feature!

Esteban Fabiani

As you say, Andrej Lapajne, we spent A LOT, searching and explaining how to do Comments, with Power Apps, and also with the help of Excel. They were workarounds!!! No doubt...this is awesome and the simple way to go forward.
