What is Geckoboard?

Geckoboard is a tool for building and sharing real-time KPI dashboards.

Designed to help leaders surface live data for their team and across their organization, Geckoboard integrates directly with over 80 different tools and services to make it easy to pull in data and get a professional-looking dashboard in front of others in a matter of minutes. No coding or training required.

Users can build dashboards directly in a browser with a straightforward, drag-and-drop interface, and bring important numbers, metrics and KPIs out of lifeless reports and spreadsheets. Geckoboard aims to make key data more engaging for everyone, with visualizations that anyone can understand at a glance, and that update automatically to always stay up-to-date.

Highlight noteworthy changes in certain metrics using status indicators, which draw attention to numbers that are performing above or below expectations, and visually show goals you're working towards, in a click.

However a team is working, Geckoboard makes sharing dashboards simpler. Copy and paste a link to a live dashboard that can be viewed in any web browser, or invite teammates to log in, view and even create their own dashboards. For regular updates, you can schedule screenshots of a dashboard to be sent via email, or posted to a Slack channel at regular intervals.

For maximum visibility, Geckoboard has ‘Send to TV’, allowing the user to pair an account with a browser on a large screen or TV, and pick which dashboards will be displayed there. It can even loop through several dashboard on one screen. It includes instructions for how to achieve this in an afternoon using affordable off the shelf hardware.

Finally, Geckoboard helps track key numbers on-the-go through a mobile devices’ browser, where dashboards, formatted for smaller screens, can be accessed.

First dashboards can be built for free for 14 days - no payment details needed.

  • Relatively cheap for what it is Over the years the pricing has gotten more restrictive but if you are rolling your own hardware (thin clients on TVs, etc.) and you are all local in an office it is still affordable.
  • Lots of different integrations that don't require coding. From SYsAdmins monitoring AWS or VPN functions to counting website visitors and engagement data to showing CRM reporting.
  • Clean and simple interface. Automatic refreshing that is browser independent.
  • Pricing model has gotten more restrictive such as limiting to number of TVs, etc.
  • The 'support' is bare bones, you will have to learn how to implement your solutions on your own.
  • Limited number of database connections means that we would have to pay a huge amount to keep all of our potential dashboards live at a given time.

  • User self-help - the video tutorials and a robust publicly accessible knowledgebase.
  • Geckoboard can aggregate data from a number of other apps into a singular dashboard.
  • Sleek, dark UI.
  • No mobile application solutions (as far as I am aware). In order to share my beautiful dashboards with a non-Geckoboard account user, I need to hop on a browser.
  • No support for ad hoc reporting -- if this were a feature, I'd be happy to drive my presentations to executive staff purely as

  • Simple to use and configure.
  • A good set of pre-built integrations to pull data back and summarise on a dashboard.
  • Excellent support! They actually respond when you ask them questions and are very thorough with their response.
  • A bit more flexibility in the number of columns would be nice.
  • Ability to scale to mobile device (web).
  • App capabilities are missing on Android.

  • The Price. Geckoboard is affordable simply stated. It's affordable for both large and small organizations.
  • The Service. Anytime I have had a question or want to share feedback, the Geckboard team has responded to me nearly immediately.
  • It's simple. Visually, the product has a great UI and is not overly complicated like many other dash-boarding suites. It's also simple to use, simple to integrate, and simple to understand.
  • Not a must have, but unless you are decent with CSS, some style options would be nice from the user end.
