Revamping our data visualization system with the dashboard

Hi Dribbblers 👋

The time has come to make monitoring business performance less stressful and to help our customers stay one step ahead of problems!

To design our new dashboard we created a set of data visualizations. Whose purpose is to tell a story using data that resonates with each of our customers.

To achieve this goal and choose the right representations, we defined a set of rules. Here are some of those principles:

1. Use the proper chart based not on its visual aspects, but rather its function, such as:

• Line charts to allow for the displaying of a continuous data series over a period of time

• Donut charts to clearly show proportions

• Combo line-column charts to highlight or contrast key figures and an overall trend

2. Keep it simple

By default, the dashboard contains no more than 5-9 visualizations. As defined by the Miller law in cognitive psychology, the human brain can only comprehend around 7 (± 2) images at one time.

3. Don’t forget animations

To grab the attention of our users and help them better understand how their data is interrelated.
