We use datasets from Connectwise Manage, Connectwise Automate, IT Glue, Datto, and Customer Thermometer.
We keep track of our Traction scorecards in BrightGauge's Goals.
Our Service Delivery department provides dashboards and reports to our clients to deliver metrics about our ticket SLAs and much more. Our Sales team also uses this data to assist in QBRs. We are able to monitor our ticket inflows across multiple teams in near real-time so we can divert resources as needed. We're able to predict SLA bottlenecks before they happen.
Each department manager receives a custom report every morning that allows them to manage exceptions, work through challenges from the day before, and predict issues that may arise.,It is a simple and powerful way to visualize data with no SQL experience necessary. The interfaces are largely drag-and-drop and it's easy to put together dashboards, gauges, internal reports, and external reports.
BrightGauge's support team is the best I've ever encountered. Their response time is usually within an hour for all my requests, whether they be simple dataset field additions or large scale projects. Every support rep I have worked with has been friendly and beyond helpful.
Their blog, webinars, and podcast are full of useful information about metrics, business practices, gauge suggestions, and more.,There are some minor UI features that are missing, particularly when it comes to organizing reports and gauges. The list screens could use more columns and sorting features.
When creating complex, multi-layered gauges it is currently not possible to label each layer or rearrange the column order unless you clone, reformat, and delete existing layers. It tends to drop existing layer (column) names and formatting when adding or removing layers, and worse -- sometimes it incorrectly renames layers. The workaround is to keep track of your layers externally (I use Excel or OneNote) and leave the labeling and formatting for the very end.
The only way to show trending is to use reports to take snapshots in time of the data you need. Goals can be used for this as well, but it could use much more in the way of tracking historical data.,10,9,2,ConnectWise Manage, ConnectWise Automate (formerly LabTech), IT GlueJennifer HenneyI can't live without it2016-08-30T23:08:17.090ZWe use BrightGauge for all our client reporting, internal reporting and dashboards.
