SaaS dashboards are critical tools for managing complex data and workflows, but they can quickly become overwhelming and confusing if not designed with the user's experience in mind. We're interested in hearing from designers and product managers about the key considerations they take into account when designing a user-friendly dashboard. How do you balance the need for data visualization with ease of use? What features and functions are most important to prioritize, and how do you organize them for maximum efficiency?

Don't try to make a fancy dashboard because it has to be fancy. Try to make it useful to your users :) Much more valuable.

Simplicity is key, the dashboard should be easy to understand and navigate, with an intuitive user interface and no unnecessary complications.

One of the key things that will be different from designing a mobile app / B2C product is how we are going to make repetitive tasks easier (can utilize keyboard shortcut or interaction shortcut).
Our SaaS dashboard game is actually not very good yet, it is something we can very well admit. So I am very interested in knowing everyone elses tips on the subject :)
@madeleine_nichols We are working on uptiq.app to enable Growth Professionals experimentation processes in an easier faster way which allows cross collaboration and transparency across the whole company.
@nuno_ms_reis me too! What're you working on at the moment?
@nuno_ms_reis awesome, just took a look, does it integrate with other platforms to measure growth?
@madeleine_nichols it will! We started working on it a few weeks ago, and we will integrate it with GA4 so you can track your goals and experiments results in the platform (the idea is to expand integrations so you can track everything in Uptiq)
